This has been a few years in the making, but Ryan’s been a busy guy trying to raise his new son, Jack with his lovely wife, Jodi. Ryan is one of my best friends and I’d love it if you’d check out his new CD “Child Lights”. I helped out on a one of the tracks- see if you can spot it. I love this guy and I look forward to hearing more and more of his beautiful music as the years go on.
Be looking for the music video for his single “Almost Home” this fall!

This is the website that I created for the 203rd Engineer Battalion, the unit I am apart of while overseas. We have the illustrious duty of “Route Clearance”, a perilous mission with seemingly little reward. However, we must constantly remind ourselves that the safety of those that travel the roads speed the economic recovery of this war-torn nation and, thus, stabilize the region. We an important cog in the big wheel, so to speak. I am proud to serve my country in this way.
This is the KRISS, a full-auto .45 cal submachine gun. Like the Tommy, but better.
Cutlass was directed by Kate Hudson, which explains the INSANE amount of stars in it. Pretty good for her first go around. Premiered at Tribeca.

I ran across this film on Stumble and found it really moving and profound. Its an excellent example of a short film.
Death to the Tinman
This is just plain fun to watch.
I’ve been close to several IED blasts this past year, both spontaneous and EOD controlled detonations, and its always a awesome experience. I don’t mean that its cool or that I love it, but just that its literally something of awe. The power and destructive force of the blasts is not in their [...]
I mention in the video how this region is hot. About 20 minutes after we had to take off to provide support to an infantry group that was suppose to meet up with us. One of their MRAPs was flipped over by an IED. That was roughly a half-mile up the road. [...]
A few shots of this footage I got a while back when one of the vehicles was hit by a VBIED (Vehicle-Borne Improvised Explosive Device). What was left of the car and suicide bomber was nothing but a few scraps, but the vehicle took the hit like a champ and the guys were fine [...]
Chaplain Walker is hilarious. I wish that I could post all about this poor guy and his inept chaplain’s assistant. Its truly comical.
I really hope some of you make the connection to the famous film, The French Connection. Back in film school, I went on a trip to LA with one of my professors and classmates. One the best things we did while in LA was to get to watch a private screening of The [...]
The circumstances of the events that these Soldiers were awarded Purple Hearts and CABs are mostly unknown to me. I know that they were medevac-ed out of the area where the IED went off after their vehicle was disabled. Whats really cool here, is the speed with which the bird arrives… its [...]
