  • CAUTION: The Simpsons Syndrome

    For the last several years, The Simpsons has been a big hit in the Taylor home. Every Sunday night we gather promptly at 7 p.m. There is no gray area in liking the tv show: you either love it or hate it. And if you hate it, the rest of the group beats you up until you love it. You gotta have thick skin to be a Taylor: putting up with Simpsons sarcasm, Jack Bauer violence - all in the name of family togetherness! I can't help but enjoy the show, but sometimes it's a little too much for the...
  • How to get "Deathly Hallows"

    We went to the local bookstore to participate in the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows release festivities. Once there we learned that we would have already had to have reserved a copy of the book in order to guarantee a copy that night. We could wait until all the reserved people had been taken care of, and if the supplies held out we might get a copy around 2 or 3 AM. So I explained to the kids that we were there for the party but would need to pick up our book some other time. They had fun...

  • Family Reunion Pictures Posted

    I've created a new photo gallery on this web site for our reunion pictures: Keith Taylor Reunion . There are a few things you should be aware of: Organization The photos are displayed roughly in the order in which they were taken (not exact because our different cameras likely have their times set to different timezones). You can drill down to the photos you want to see by using the "tag cloud." I used two kinds of tags to tag each photo. First, I tagged them with the event/activity...
  • Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    Thursday, July 19, 2007, at 5:00:00 pm, I closed the last page of book number 6. Let me tell you just one thing: What a book! So much to learn and enjoy at the same time. I read this book in record time: less than a month! All because I want to welcome the new one with a fresh mind. And thinking that "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" is being release in two days (July 21, at midnight) and it's the last of the series, I'm planning to be ready full speed for this "Harry...

  • Harry Potter Update: The Movie!

    Last Friday I took my Daddy on a date to see the latest Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix. I promised to take him for his 30th birthday. It was his special present and of course along came Grandpa Keith... in a heart beat. Our little party couldn't be complete without him. We sat in the very front row, and while waiting we munched on some chicken strips, french fries and soda - you know, to get warmed up. Then as things really got good we topped it off with some licorace and peanut M&M's...

  • Feliz Cumpleaños, Papa!!!

    Daddy, Daddy... I got a little poem for you: Happy Birthday to you, You are turning the 3 x 10, I really admire you, Especially now and then. I always like your funny farm stories Like when Uncle Greg chased you, Or when Grandpa made you test the ice, Knowing that you'd fall right through. But we can't stop laughing and giggling, When you talk of Doug the Mighty Bat Slayer Or one of the many stories where Grandpa says, "Doug, go get the matches." And once a week your religious duty...
