The ARGAT Blogs first correction!

Sorry, this blog is really an endeavor of a self proclaimed amateur and while I do strive for excellence and accurancy I admit errors will and do occasionally get by me.

I say this because I had a reader of this blog who is in China, inform me that I had an inaccurate, unauthorized picture in one of my earlier posts.

I have corrected this oversight. I do apologize, you just never know how reliable the information you get off the internet is.

hehehehehehehehehehe

GO BLUE!!!

Today is round one of the big MICHIGAN vs michigan state grudge match, sponsored by Subway... the game will be in lansing so unfortunately my prediction is msu 75 michigan 64...

Everyone, mark your calendars for the last 2 weekends of April, no not just to remember my birthday but to also add the "Sound of Music" play at the girls school. Rachel has her first big performance, she will be playing Marta.

She has been attending practice for the past couple of weeks. As the time gets closer, I will get you more information but it would mean a lot to her if you all could come and see her perform.

Greetings from Siberia!

Well what a weekend here in West Michigan! The first blizzard of 2007 started on Friday afternoon and continues today. It may not look too bad in this picture but we have close to 2 feet of snow on the ground and the roads are very bad. The malls even closed early on Saturday. Churches cancelled services today.
