Your Personality Is

Rational (NT)


You are both logical and creative. You are full of ideas.
You are so rational that you analyze everything. This drives people a little crazy!

Intelligence is important to you. You always like to be around smart people.
In fact, you're often a little short with people who don't impress you mentally.

You seem distant to some - but it's usually because you're deep in thought.
Those who understand you best are fellow Rationals.

In love, you tend to approach things with logic. You seek a compatible mate - who is also very intelligent.

At work, you tend to gravitate toward idea building careers - like programming, medicine, or academia.

With others, you are very honest and direct. People often can't take your criticism well.

As far as your looks go, you're coasting on what you were born with. You think fashion is silly.

On weekends, you spend most of your time thinking, experimenting with new ideas, or learning new things.

Hello All

Not much to say tonight. Went to a school board meeting Monday night, staff meeting Tuesday morning, football game Tuesday night, FCA meeting before school Wed, SBDM after school Wed, Law class 7:20-10:00 Wed, and spent about 3 hours tonight working on an ORID (don't ask) and a Law brief. Yes, I am happy tomorrow is Friday :)

Busy

It has been another busy week. I have a feeling with all I am doing for my Law class and my internship it is going to be a busy fall. Not that either one has just a ton of work, or even really hard work, but both have a lot of time consuming work. Both are also very important and I have a feeling I am going to learn a lot from them. The down side is I feel I am not spending enough time with my classroom teaching and more importantly my wife. I need to do a better job of juggling all aspects. I pray things slow down a little and I have a feeling things will settle down once I settle into a more stable routine. Well, back to work I hope you are have a great day.

Invincible (the movie) & Cowboys Video

Cowboys Epic Backs

Invincible is a pretty good movie I would recommend it to anyone. It is your typical sports movie about a guy that’s world is falling apart yet he has enough heart to rise above so on and so forth. To sum up Invincible it is the pro version of Rudy, but there is one part that makes Invincible great. The opening game of the season when the Cowboys kill the Eagles and it show some of the greatest football players of all time, and the greatest coach of all time (moment of silence) Tom Landry. All in all Invincible is not a waste of money and I hope you enjoy the little video in honor of some of the great Cowboys of the past and hopefully the future.

HALLELUJAH HOTDOGS!!!!!!!!!!

I know you’re looking at the heading thinking what in the world is Hallelujah Hotdogs???? Well, Hallelujah Hotdogs is my idea for a new business that Heather and I would like to open. Of course variety would be key to our success. I have already begun thinking of names for hotdogs and looking at different types of hotdogs. Our dogs will all have different names. For example, you could walk up and say “give me a Neil with a side of Jenni” and that would make perfect since at Hallelujah Hotdogs. As you may have figured out I am looking at friends and family for inspiration for names. To find out if your name has made the cut you will just have to come by and see. Oh, and don’t forget your college I.D. that will get you 10% off your purchase :)
