LeAnna's Ear Tube Removal Surgery

LeAnna (my daughter) had minor surgery today to remove the tubes that were put in her ears 16 months ago. She did great today, and the procedure went just fine. She didn't even cry before or after the surgery. The surgery was at 9:00 AM, and by noon she was already bouncing off the walls again.

Be sure to check out our family webpage (www.clipperfamily.com) for updated pictures of LeAnna, which Angela updates on an almost daily basis.

Try a Mac Mini for Free for 30 Days

I found this link on Digg.com. Apparently, Apple is now offering a 30-day money-back guarantee on their Mac Mini computer. I can say from experience that the Mac Mini is one nice computer for $500. I bought one back in February with my tax refund, and have slowly been converting over from Windows to the Mac ever since. For such a small and cheap machine, it's really amazing how well it handles everyday tasks. I wouldn't dream of using it for video editing or gaming, but it works great for web surfing, email, and even hosting a web server.

Update: Apple has discontinued this offer. Too bad.

First Blog Post

Hello, everyone. I decided my webpage was looking a little old and out-dated, so I decided to create a "blog". I plan to use this as a way to post random thoughts that I think other people might be interested in. Some of these things might include what my wife (Angela) and daughter (LeAnna) have been up to, or links to things I've found on the internet that may be useful or funny. Enjoy!
