Dear Friends and Family, Revenge of the Nerds!!!! Recently I was looking at the top movies of 2012 and noticed a trend! NERDS! I spent a great deal of my life (all of it unfortunately) being a nerd so I can spot a trend when I see it. I can spot it, log it, track …

Christmas Letter (2011)
Dear Friends and Family, Every year I sit down to reconcile another year into a short (?!?) sweet letter. Every year, for over a decade now, I think not much happened. Every year I surprise myself. You probably are aware of this since you probably notice the length of the letter prior to rolling your …
Christmas Letter (2010)
Dear Friends and Family, We Are Nashville! 2010 was a year of disasters (both big and small). The Tide rolled in as Alabama flooded Texas to win the national title (Roll Tide!). Haiti suffered a devastating earthquake leaving the better part of the country homeless. February brought in some of the best snow Tennessee has …
Christmas Letter (2009)
Dear Friends and Family, Editor’s Note: Who needs Christmas Letters anymore. Those are so overdone (especially this one some say!?!?). This year due to a hectic Dean schedule you are receiving a Martin Luther King Day Letter!!! This will probably be the only such letter you receive for this occasion so cherish it…or at least …
Christmas Letter (2008)
Dear Friends and Family, 2008 Stank!!! I contemplated just leaving it at that and saving some trees (and you some time). Then I reconsidered and you now have your assignment. I’m glad I did because sitting down and actually reflecting on the year made me realize things were not as bad as your local news …
Christmas Letter (2007)
Dear Friends and Family, Wsup? LTNS MG TOY! We are now officially parents of a teenager so I’m trying to learn all the cool text message shortcuts (I’m not even sure that is what they are called). I need to do this so my son will actually know what I’m saying to him. Translation of …
Christmas Letter (2006)
Dear Friends and Family, Each year I send this out, I always get a few folks who have concerns as to the length of the yearly document. Other than removing that person from our mailing list, I generally use this as fuel for the upcoming year. This year’s letter will be in 20 parts and …
Christmas Letter (2005)
Dear Friends and Family, I am living every father’s dream…to DANCE…on stage…in front of tons of people…with lots of lights. YES!!! Emmaline and Molly are in their dance school’s performance of The Nutcracker. Emily signed us up to be in it with them as “party parents”. I was reluctant at first with the pink tights …
Christmas Letter (2004)
Dear Friends and Family, Fine, I admit it I am perpetually late. A man must be granted one fault. In an otherwise perfect human, just ask my wife and mom, I just can’t seem to get control of this one area of my life. Since the first step to resolving a problem is admitting it …
Christmas Letter (2003)
Dear Friends and Family, Emmaline has been studying holidays of the world at school. She and I have been researching Japan’s holidays. Their most important annual holiday is their New Year celebrated during January 1-3, called shogatsu. Instead of a Christmas letter this year I’m going to write a shogatsu letter…this has nothing to do …
