I just finished a 'very' early prototype for the new bar's website....

Check it out at www.unclesamsbar.com

I designed everything but the logo and hat (those came from our bar manager Mike)
All of it is likely to change, but its up there right now to start the creative process...

I wasn't super happy about the theme of the bar... But like I told my friend Barron, if we have a better idea we should open one ourselves, not make the rest of the folks change their idea.

HINT: While you visit the site be sure to click on the Circle with the 16 on it to see some funny stuff I did over the weekend.... CHECK IT OUT!

Anyway.. The bar should be open for September so please drop by if you are in Houston.
(address coming soon).

Adios.

We have reason to celebrate! Although the counter at the bottom of the screen doesn't accurately reflect the correct number, the stats show that we officially broke 5000 visitors yesterday!

So, join us, pop a cork,.. And sip some bubble (or whatever floats your boat)...

We'd like to thank all 5000 of you for peering into our world!

It was raining like crazy this morning, and lighting was striking every 5 seconds or so...
I ran in to check on Ana, and then made a mad dash around the house to un-plug all of the computers, TVs, and other electronics...

Waiting for it to clear upa bit more and try to located where one 'very large' strike hit close to the house (don't think it was a direct hit).

-- On an unrelated note - We had a great time over at my friends Barron & Aurora's yesterday.
They had a pool party (the pool was heated - nice and warm), all of the kids had a blast.
We also had Beer & Margaritas - so all of the adults had a blast as well.

I brought over my X-Boxs and Fight Night 2004.... and put some serious schoolin on Barron... (although he did win several matches).

I'm really a bad *ss when its digital!

One more comment - I REALLY LOVE DAYS OFF!!!



Where did our last 100 visitors come from?
Thanks for visiting!

Just signed the papers for the Bar! - Yes,.. its true.. I am now part owner in a beverage establishment! Oh Yea!

Actually the business plan is that it is focused at the hard core drinker, the kind of person who loves to line them up, and slam-um-down..

Thank you sir, may I have another?!?

Construction should begin soon and I expect that we will be open for business in a month or two!

Drink Up!

Howdey Howdey....

Its a hot Houston day,.. just finished peppering the yard with bug poison... now I am getting a bit nervous about my left are tremmoring... so instead of going to the doc... or readying up on it on the internet.. I decided it was a far better idea to sit in tha back yard,.. smoke my pipe and have a bottle of becks.... much better now....

Anyway.. just listening to some U2... and zoning out a bit... I guess I needed a bit of away time from the heavy processing....

other than that the kiddies are doing great... the wife is tired but fine... and the tempo of time continues to tick away... (this looks like its gonna be a deep blog.... but you have to have one of those everynow and again....)

Started doing podcasts for work... who knows mabye I'll start here too.... Its cheaper than a therapist....

Its amazing how much music can affect ones mood... it helped my wife though child brith... and me through this saturday...

Anywho.... nuff of this.. I guess I will troll the net for a good game demo... or perhapse call Coln French for a bit of BF2...

Downloaded OpenOffice (latest version) its improved alot.... give a better review later... but so far it seem OK-Dokee

Been listening to a Podcast called The Dawn and Drew show... they are great.... I'm not a junkie yet.. but I have found my self listneing almost everyday for two weeks.... so somehting is up...
checkup out.. but I warn ya,.. its not kids stuff.... http://dawnanddrew.podshow.com/

Peeling off those dollar bills and slappin down.. 100, 200, 300... (jesus... I need to turn off the the U2)... and I can see those fighter planes.....

anyways... (yet again)....

Outside its america...
