Good morning, sunshine
ByDerekThis morning, Amanda and I watched the sun rise over the Holland hills from the cozy comfort of our bed. If that’s not affirmation that we’re in the right place now, I don’t know what is. I would have taken a picture, but I figured I can do that any day. Any day! Wow. The…

Pass on the redshirt treament
ByDerekI’m sure Independent Health wasn’t thinking of this when they came up with their new ad campaign – “You deserve the Redshirt Treament.” They might have rethought it. This probably isn’t the image they wanted to portray:

Color correction
ByDerekOur continuing quest to de-blue the house took another huge leap forward yesterday with the repainting of the deck. See, the previous owners of the house had a fetish for this particular shade of blue, which was used… well… on pretty much any paintable surface. We’ve been slowly working to change that and add a…

Just rearrange the sentences a bit
ByDerekThesis: “In his new book, political analyst Ron Brownstein calls this a crisis of ‘hyperpartisanship,’ a crisis which has ‘unnecessarily inflamed our differences and impeded progress against our most pressing challenges.’ Nothing reflects the result of hyperpartisanship more than the current immigration debate…” Supporting arguments: “Here in our nation’s capital, I wanted to talk briefly…

Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
