Kyle of National Darts

I posted a long time ago about a company I tried to order darts through, only to find out that they were crooks, well, that has been by far my most popular post getting over half the hits to my blog on any given day. Well, it appears that Kyle Hove, the owner, has finally found google. On the 16th of this month, he found the archive of the post, which happens to be the second result on the query "nationaldarts.com" and the third result under his name, "Kyle Hove" He has been checking in on the comments, and today he actually posted, saying that everything is all better, and gave one of his excuses he used with me a year ago now. I have found that my blog post has been linked to from multiple dart forums. It turns out there are a LOT of people who have been ripped off by this guy. Check my keyword analysis for the last month, and notice a trend. I crossed off the ones that do not take you directly to the nationaldarts post. Check out the comments, including Kyle's on the ORIGINAL POST

It's a boy!

Friday we had our 20 week ultrasound. We found out we are having a boy! We are very excited! Both of his grandmas joined us for the ultrasound. It was really neat to have them there for it.
We started getting his room ready for him too. My sister Jenna came to visit us, and helped us pick out a paint color, and helped us paint. Now we need to clean out that closet, and paint in there. How do 2 people who share a bedroom fill a 3 bedroom house so fast?
Sunday morning while I was awake long before I wanted to be, I started tearing up carpet. We are going to be laying laminate through most of our main level. Once we finish all of the projects in our house, we will probably start over at the top of the list.

Maytag repair man


Saturday morning I woke up to my wife telling me our refrigerator was dead. This was lovely, especially since we just put in over $100 in groceries the night before. It was seriously room temperature in the refrigerator, but the freezer was cold. Our fridge is an Admiral, which is made by Maytag. Imagine how lucky I thought I was. Well, at least the repair man will be able to get here soon, because everyone knows that the Maytag repair man does not have enough work, and sits around twiddling his thumbs. Apparently they laid off the repair men who could not turn a profit, because they could not help me for 5 days. Poo. Last night I finally got sick of it and started tearing it apart. Repair men love having to fix what you screwed up. I found that the fan that circulates air is not doing anything. I guess I will try to replace it fast before the repair man comes so I can avoid the $65 diagnostic fee.
