Wall Street Journal Radio


I want everyone to know that I've been downloading and listening to the Wall Street Journal This Morning podcast. I guess I like the show because of its tone. It's not political, yet it covers business, the arts, cultural trends, and generally interesting stories. The show's hosts, Gordon Deal and Gina Cervetti, have a lot of fun in their reporting too. So give it a listen and tell me what you think. I also recommend NPR's Marketplace podcast, which is a similar format.

King Tut - A Must See!

I'm in Dallas today at the Dallas Museum of Art. My main reason for being in Dallas is so that my family can see and experience the King Tut exhibit. If you haven't seen this, it's really a "must see" event. An added bonus is just being able to see the rest of the museum's exhibits when you've been through the King Tut portion.

Anyway, King Tut, the boy king, was about 9 years old when he ascended to the throne, and was about 19 when he died. The cause of death is a mystery to this day. Tonight, we're going to a church service at Fellowship Church in Grapevine. If you ever get a chance to see one of their services, you'll understand why they are known for their creativity.

Our family is having a great time up here in "Big D." We'll be headed home tomorrow. Our good friends, the Cottles, are with us, and they're enjoying it too. I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted anything! I'll try to do better.
