Snapshot from a few minutes before Muse took the stage to open the U2 concert at Cowboys Stadium: for those who want to see the inside of the new stadium, the JumboJerry screen, or the ostentatious stage design known as “The Claw.”

Monday, October 12th, 2009Defending the Alamo (from vicious Midlothian criminals)
Monday, October 12th, 2009
It had long been rumored that on the property of the childhood home of one of my friends stood a nearly life-size replica of the Alamo. During a road trip while I was in college I had been to the Alamo in San Antonio (another story for another day), but I had never been to this friend’s home since he was someone I met while I was in college. However, on this fine afternoon, as I had traveled south to DeSoto to hang with a mutual friend, we decided the time was right to head a few paces further south on US-67 to go see how real this historical site dubious spectacle actually was.
Turns out the stories were true. I wonder if his pops did any drugs in the sixties…

I was walking around and for some reason this empty pack of smokes lying on the sidewalk caught my eye.
Final High School Bash
Sunday, April 21st, 2002
Struggling to decide if the high school party you just went to was badass? Try this one on for size. Senior year was coming to a close, it was my friend in the pictures’ 18th birthday, and it was 420.
We were so hung over when we woke up that we only thought to break out the camera once we were already halfway done cleaning. Seriously.
Nonetheless, the pictures do a solid job of commemorating a good time. And on this (21-Aug.-2009), the day my parents are moving into their new house in North Carolina, it seemed a fitting ode to give a retrospective shout out to the one and only 5020 Swiss.
