My sister sent this to me last week. What I've seen of this guy is pretty funny. This video is brilliant!

Saving Faithfulness
"But as for me, my prayer is to you, O Lord. At an acceptable time, O God, in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness." (Psalm 69:13)
I'm happy to report that Liz has been released from the hospital this afternoon to come home. Our little pre-born Baby Hinkle is safe and healthy, and so is Liz. Because of the deep clotting in her left leg (the right leg is clear) she will be on a blood-thinner until delivery and up to 6 weeks after. The hematologist will continue to do some tests (pre and post labor) to determine the actual cause of the clotting. We meet with him and the obstetrician next week.
For now Liz will be at home resting and not going back to work, at least for the rest of this week. We'll see about next week, depending on the pain. We are hoping that the swelling will steadily decrease and the pain will subside. Other than that discomfort, Liz is doing as well as can be expected. She is weary from dealing with everything but is in good spirits, as usual. Her parents were able to make the 8 hour drive through the night, and will be with us for a while to help out. Already, it's been a relief having them here; they are a blessing.
Again, thank you for praying for Liz and Baby Hinkle. This means more to us than we can express. Thanks for your messages. This morning, I read to Liz the list of facebook posts, both public and private, from you all, as well as the texts, emails, and voicemails. We are humbly grateful for you and for the fact that God, in the abundance of his steadfast love, has answered us in his saving faithfulness.

world's best burger
since my wife has been away visiting her family in canada these past 2 weeks, i've begun finding things to do to keep myself occupied so i don't miss her so much. i still miss her much, but at least i'm keeping busy. so tonight i had dinner with some friends of ours, greg and deidra.
greg had told me about this awesome burger he had at mickey finn's, a place in downtown libertyville, not too far from where i live. he called it the world's best burger, and i had to find out for myself. imagine with me, if you will, eight ounces of ground tenderloin with crumbled bleu cheese on a soft egg roll bun accompanied by sweet potato fries! oh man, i do have to say that if it's not the world's best burger it sure does come close. and all for only $10.25! (listen to me, i sound like a commercial!) but seriously, truly one of the best i've eaten.
we had a nice time with good conversation and good food. sometime soon after liz gets home i'll be taking her to try the world's best burger. red robin is a big favorite of ours, but this might prove to be some competition. we shall see...
