It’s that time of year again. Last night Donna and I took Spencer to his first ever Candlelight Service at New Life Church, and I think it’s safe to say he had a blast (I sure know we did). On the way home last night I got to thinking about how special this Christmas is […]
Turning 40 & The End of the World
Okay, so I have set this blog post to publish at one minute after midnight on December 21st, which according to the Mayan calendar is supposedly when the world will end. Ironically, they picked my 40th birthday to be the end of the world, go figure. I guess if you are reading this, then… well, […]
Update: Diabetes Picked the Wrong Guy!
I’ve had some people ask so I figured I would post an update as to how things are going two weeks after being released from an unexpected week-long stay at the hospital where I learned that I have type 2 Diabetes. I’m happy to report that my blood sugar levels have stabilized at our target […]
Using [shortcodes] in WordPress Widgets
I figured out a cool trick this evening that I thought I would share. Let’s say you have a shortcode that you would like to display inside of a wordpress text widget area, just locate your theme directory and edit your functions.php file to include the following: add_filter( 'widget_text', 'shortcode_unautop'); add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
Diabetes Picked the Wrong Guy!
I’ve had a lot of people call, text, and email me this weekend to ask why I was suddenly off the radar and in the hospital last week. I figured it would be easier to blog everything once than it would be to respond to each and everyone separately, so here goes… I have secretly […]

Let’s see, I finally made my mind up yesterday that I was going to sell the car, put it on my blog last night w/out even knowing what I was going to be asking for it and I’ve already had 5 people shoot me texts and inbox messages so I figured I had better do […]
I’m selling my Audi TT Roadster!!
A few months back I was faced with the reality that my two-seated, Audi TT Roadster Convertible, was no longer a practical automobile. I think it was probably that warning sticker on the side of the drivers door w/ a picture of an infant car seat w/ a red ghostbuster styled circle and cross-mark across […]
Creating an RSS Feed from WordPress Tags
One of the things that WordPress really does well in my opinion is generate feeds out of the box for posts, and even feeds for post categories are fairly easy to pull together, but today I was needing to put together an RSS feed from post tags. For those of you that might be unfamiliar […]
Operation: Ortner Adoption!
Update: 11/13/12 – I’ve had a lot of people ask how we did w/ this event and what the final number was. I’m happy to report that according to our estimates we are somewhere in the neighborhood of $21,000.00. God Bless Everyone that Took Part!!! A while back Donna and I asked Mike & Melisa […]

My wife Donna and I are hosting a dinner tomorrow night, actually several dinners are going on simultaneously around the state to raise awareness for the work that the Morgan Nick Foundation does. Through the “marvels of technology” we are linking together video feeds from several dinner parties from around the state to hear a […]
