Although it is neither mentioned in the product literature nor on the splendid advertisement, the All-A-Commode will easily handle more than 3 squares of toilet paper (the proper folding is still important, though, but the manufacturer promises to fix this before next Christmas).

The CEO left town, without much notice. She took 98% of the staff with her. For some reason she felt it was necessary for all of the Oregon staff to play in the snow for a week rather than complete her blogging duties. Something about the "Call of the Wild" in Flagstaff Arizona. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being quite unprepared for this writing assignment I am flying by the seat of my pants, quite literally. I am usually laughing hysterically as I read each post never thinking that it takes much to mock the unwilling participants talked about each day.&lt;br /&gt;I am a computer illiterate and I am not sure this will even make it up. But something has to be posted to save face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rumor has it that most of the filming is done and ready for publication on Christmas Eve! Impressive! I guess the little hissy fit I threw last year due to the lateness of some films (You know who you are) had more of an affect than I realized. This power could go to my head. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well now that we have established that I have control of the blog. Feel free to call me and ask for the password and you can get on and post something. If you don't call I will assume that you haven't read today's post, and of course that you don't care, and that I am being neglected again, and that nobody loves me or appreciates me, and that every other mother and mother-in-law has perfect children that love and adore them and who do everything they are asked to do.

Mitt Romney excepted her endorsement which included the prophetic statement-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"he's been consistent since he changed his mind."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now Mitt I think everyone who lives outside of the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;looney&lt;/span&gt; bin would agree that an endorsement from Curious George would hold more clout than Crazy Christine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is just frustrating for all of us. We are in a bit of a conundrum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The liberal republicans here at 3&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;SFF&lt;/span&gt; have been preparing to give their endorsement. I am sure Brad would have been willing to do it right on &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Hannity&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many people thought this blog would lean a little towards Romney for obvious reasons. We share one big commonality with Mitt. We too have been misjudged and marginalized simply because we have great heads of hair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this whole &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Hannity&lt;/span&gt; fiasco there's been talk of going down a whole new route.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brad spoke to a real estate tycoon billionaire friend of his and then announced to our staff-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I'm going to mill around my endorsement. Take my time. If no one impresses me enough I am going to throw my hat in for an independent run."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know what your thinking he does that every election. It's true, but, 2012 just might be his year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mitt there is still time. I am sure if you come to the table with some kind of offer of a cabinet position or maybe let Janna find the next white house dog on &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;craigslist&lt;/span&gt;, Brad just might change his mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Otherwise. We'll for sure carry the short people vote. We have Josh so if we are asked difficult questions from the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;lamestream&lt;/span&gt; media we can answer "Yes we've heard of Libya." Also Howard reads the newspaper daily and we are all on our first marriages. This campaign could really be a power house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brad's preparing his autobiography as we speak.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-3063354302646025090?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/3063354302646025090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=3063354302646025090' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/3063354302646025090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/3063354302646025090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2011/12/what-crap.html' title='What the Crap'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7142849411309326208</id><published>2011-12-14T08:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-14T08:51:33.693-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Gold Rush West Richland</title><content type='html'>Brad has wrapped up the taping of his reality &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;TV&lt;/span&gt; series "Gold Rush West &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Richland&lt;/span&gt;".

Their people are talking to our people. They claim it has to do with our support of unions and the absurd amount of NPR Sarah and Josh have listened to over the years.

If there is nudity involved it is always Ryan's idea. Second of all, greater love hath no mother-in-law than this that she run bare &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;bummeth&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;across&lt;/span&gt; the stake center stage while her ward members &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;cheweth&lt;/span&gt; ham so that her son-in-law might &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;partaketh&lt;/span&gt; of the truthfulness of the gospel. Isn't that the true reason for the season?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Side note to Sarah and Josh. Yes Dad is truly a stretch and flex specialist. He and Janna stretch and flex regularly together. He got certified before retiring. No joke.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also side note to Missy. I would be happy to share my brownie recipe with any and all. I took up baking them following this year's family reunion. Why?

We all want him and Sarah, Olivia, Brody and Luisa to relocate closer to 3&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;SFF&lt;/span&gt; headquarters. Mainly to insure their video is completed on time each year. We all want to help. The problem is no one actually knows what Josh does for a living. Aside from the fact that he is brilliant, I don't have a clue. Do you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to the fact that this is a very down economy, I am thinking that Josh should broaden his horizons as he begins his job search. Maybe from whatever it is his PHD is in, to one of the many wonderful &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;opportunities&lt;/span&gt; available today on the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Tri&lt;/span&gt;-City &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Craigslist&lt;/span&gt; page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are actual jobs posted from December on &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Craigslist&lt;/span&gt; for the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Tri&lt;/span&gt;-Cities.

Which was really just some shovels and a few lunches at Samurai Sam's. Things have changed. They are now calling the old sand volleyball court the "Glory Hole". He's got gold fever. There's no stopping. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Why? Because he struck gold. A shiny little nugget was found just feet below the surface.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Unfortunately, the mine is actually bone dry. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Desperate to get Dakota Brad back to work on his Construction Company/Magazine, Howard's been melting Janna's jewelry in the garage. He then buries it out on the mine claim on his way home from church meetings. He believed that if they reached their goal that Dakota Brad and his MBM's would come back to the office. It's lonely listening to AM radio by yourself. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Unfortunately for Howard that small bit of success which was once a gold locket has just spurred them all on. It's going to be a long winter. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Howard's praying the ground will freeze. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-5791648322852440695?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/5791648322852440695/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=5791648322852440695' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5791648322852440695'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5791648322852440695'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2011/12/gold-rush-west-richland-part-2.html' title='Gold Rush West Richland Part 2'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Zq9QVpJDaPk/Tt-6Wg99EjI/AAAAAAAAAIw/XtNwzkcmh9A/s72-c/images%255B6%255D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-1806487247198458705</id><published>2011-12-06T09:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-06T10:00:56.114-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Secrets Tuesday - Janna &amp; Howard Raised Democrats</title><content type='html'>Not all of them of course but enough of them for it to be scandalous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's true all that Rush Limbaugh and Dr. Laura of our childhood took no hold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have two who are liberal enough to have voted for the current socialist regime and one who is in bed with the Union, leaving only one child left to listen to AM radio. Howard follows him to work daily and tunes the radio to Hannity other wise I'm pretty sure he would have succumbed as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a while Janna was attending Mitt Romney events hoping it would hide the fact that two years after the election one of her children still has a "Vote Hillary" sign in their yard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's embarrassing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could she have raised a bunch of tree hugging softies? She should have spanked us more. Too much love was going on in our home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And so she had to resort to desperate measures=&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Occupy protests began she confiscated our camping equipment. She said it was for the "sake of the children".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any good Christian woman would have done the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I say Howard and Janna keep good company. They shouldn't hang their heads too low. After all George and Amy Faust also raised a democrat. In fact their son worked for John F. Kennedy on the committee for civil rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay tuned for more "Gold Rush West Richland".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know?

He'd been on a three hour candy bender of epic proportions. The band felt like rehab was really the only option for him at this point. Unfortunately this led to the ultimate unraveling of "&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Hoskins&lt;/span&gt; Hairband".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;After a successful two year run performing in Arizona's finest Indian casinos they have all gone their separate ways. The lead singer is pursuing a solo career. The main keyboardist is filling in as a judge on X Factor. The drummer is selling the Amazing Squeegee mop on The Home Shopping Network. Some of the band members are being featured in an upcoming reality TV series. The final band member has been appointed as UN Ambassador to Guinea. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We will all be disappointed to not have an 80's hair band music video as part of the film festival this year. No worries though 3&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;SFF&lt;/span&gt; has something way better planned for you. You are not going to want to miss it.

We've got a &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;doozy&lt;/span&gt; this week. It's something Janna's been trying to hide from her extended family members, ward members and even neighbors for years. We've been forbidden to discuss at family dinners and reunions, although it always seems to seep out. There's no hiding now though, tomorrow we lay it all on the table. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;This week will also have more episodes of "Gold Rush West &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Richland&lt;/span&gt;" and "Life Lessons With Your Bossy Sister Jen" along with the "Conversion 2011 Challenge". &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-7051534763189690861?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/7051534763189690861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=7051534763189690861' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7051534763189690861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7051534763189690861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2011/12/bender-and-rehab.html' title='Bender and Rehab'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FSZKm37Bu3g/Tt0FibBgJKI/AAAAAAAAAIk/K0zjEmO7gTg/s72-c/images%255B8%255D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-6327386467447138686</id><published>2011-12-02T15:57:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-02T16:03:47.184-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Why Stephen Colbert Should Imitate Howard-</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oOLSWeLC9ww/TtlmeDJLgHI/AAAAAAAAAIY/6Ronf5_LukI/s1600/Missy_Ryan_387%255B1%255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 246px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5681685071330508914" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oOLSWeLC9ww/TtlmeDJLgHI/AAAAAAAAAIY/6Ronf5_LukI/s400/Missy_Ryan_387%255B1%255D.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-isfAoH7EPJg/TtlmFDuLxPI/AAAAAAAAAIA/Fm7OEhuMHT8/s1600/Stephen-Colbert-Singing-Friday-by-Rebecca-Black%255B1%255D.png"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 298px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 226px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5681684641988986098" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-isfAoH7EPJg/TtlmFDuLxPI/AAAAAAAAAIA/Fm7OEhuMHT8/s400/Stephen-Colbert-Singing-Friday-by-Rebecca-Black%255B1%255D.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He would just need to salt n pepper it up a bit.

His team is just a gaggle of several men related to Thera by marriage. But it's Richland so who isn't. It is rumored that entire neighborhoods carry her bloodline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He has set claim on a plot of land thought to have a large amount of black sand.

He is basically a yoga guru. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Because of his new calling everyone has to call him by a new name. Even his closest friends. He's been going by-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Eka&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Pada&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Rajakapotasana&lt;/span&gt; which translates to "One Legged King Pigeon". That pretty well describes him. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The picture to the right was taken on the coast at our annual board meeting. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;No he is not sporting a beard that is actually a wool sock super glued to his face. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He's got a couple other hobbies that prevent him from actually growing a full beard. He's really a busy guy. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Come back tomorrow for a new episode of "Gold Rush West &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Richland&lt;/span&gt;" we will be following Brad as he attempts to strike it rich mining gold in the shadows of the Paradise Chapel. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also submit your questions for "Ask Howard" where he will be responding via video chat possibly while in downward facing dog.

This year is a big year for 3&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;SFF&lt;/span&gt; because we relocated the corporate head quarters to the NW and held our first board of directors meeting in Lincoln City Oregon. The relocation was a huge success. The board of directors meeting was a huge flop. Nothing got accomplished. Brad napped, Ryan played &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Xbox&lt;/span&gt;, Chad was doing everything Jen doesn't and Josh gently spoke in terms none of us could understand. Better luck next year I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are bringing back some of the favorites such as "Janna Tweets" so check the sidebar and "Conversion Challenge 2011" so check in everyday. We are adding some new and exciting regulars such as "Ask Howard" where Howard will answer any burning question via video chat weekly. We may or may not have a regular segment of "Janna's Kids Confess" and "Interpreting Dreams with Sarah". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will also be the Tom and Brad drama that Josh refers to as "Race to the Top".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Howard is worried that the blog posts won't always be appropriate. He claims he has a reputation to uphold. Something about avoiding the very appearance of evil. To which I responded by tipping my head back and cackling loudly. He really should have raised &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;meeker&lt;/span&gt; children. Personally I blame James Bond.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-1715106028308622022?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/1715106028308622022/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=1715106028308622022' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/1715106028308622022'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/1715106028308622022'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2011/11/3-squares-2011-is-here.html' title='3 Squares 2011 is Here!!!'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-2968673092000518481</id><published>2011-01-03T09:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-03T16:57:00.974-08:00</updated><title type='text'>You Thought We Were Kidding -

All I can say is...we did it!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had many new exciting elements to this Christmas web experience. Janna's tweets was a huge success especially if you were lucky enough to log on on the days Janna had put up a dirty joke. Where was Howard? Oh, everywhere. I think we all have a greater appreciation for the fine art of knitting, or was that crocheting or &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;crotching&lt;/span&gt;. I don't know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The big elephant in the room of course is the one missing video. While I am confident that Phil will talk some sense into Brad I still feel this breech in 3&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;SFF&lt;/span&gt; policy needs to be addressed. I was pleased that Sarah and Josh finally posted their video. It performed far and above our pathetically low standards (see Jen and Chad's video) and, it took a lot of energy to be bad mouthing both Brad and Josh and it is a relief to be able to just focus our attention on Brad now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know Missy was particularly upset by Brad's lack of video. I over heard her saying "I cut and pasted three heads for this event and he shows with nothing!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you see that is just it. We have fans that are expecting five relatively mediocre videos every Christmas. We can't just show to the party with four. It's rude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, without further adieu, for the 2011 Film Festival Season, we are announcing open auditions for the position of Brad. We already have families all over the country submitting their videos hoping for a shot at this coveted position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know what you are thinking. Wow, that's harsh. No, no. Brad can re-audition for the part of himself and we will give him an equal opportunity. All audition videos must be submitted by the start of the 2011 season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has Brad been cut out of the family?No way. He is still in Janna and Howard's will, there is a piece of petrified wood with his name on it. He will still be expected to do his shift at the nursing home when Howard hits 98 and at some point Janna is going to stop glaring at him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's just show biz folks. Have a happy new year!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a taste of your competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/D0SI83NlYp8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/D0SI83NlYp8?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-7147751893851004570?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/7147751893851004570/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=7147751893851004570' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7147751893851004570'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7147751893851004570'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2011/01/good-bye-2010.html' title='Good Bye 2010'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-3174727395662158309</id><published>2011-01-01T10:57:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-02T11:39:04.775-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Better Late Than Never</title><content type='html'>Here is our video.

I am sorry it has had to come to this. I have decided to take drastic action. If you don't get it posted by the 31st you can expect a visit from Phil. He is currently between jobs and has a plenty of time on his hands. He is also very angry. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Disclaimer: The expressed opinions in the above video do not necessarily reflect the opinions of 3SFF...especially if they are republican opinions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-5705934075450599389?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/5705934075450599389/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=5705934075450599389' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5705934075450599389'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5705934075450599389'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/you-should-be-scaredvery-scared.html' title='You Should Be Scared...Very Scared!'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-5494758544395543954</id><published>2010-12-28T11:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-28T11:42:21.709-08:00</updated><title type='text'>I made Janna cry again: I ROCK!</title><content type='html'>Well folks, another year has come and gone. I thought I would post a few tips and tricks I've learned to help us out next year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think we can all agree that A LOT of our time is spent converting and compressing files to make them easier to post online, right?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we could all post a few helpful things, it will save us a lot of grief in the coming years. And really, the only grief we should have during the holidays is from Janna as she harasses us to get our videos posted already!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, here we go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(1) Since we all need to post our videos to the blog, try and create your file in a format that is already recognized by certain uploading sites (say, Youtube, or Vimeo,for example). Since Vimeo accepts wmv files (and I used them last year and liked them), I created a slideshow in Photoshop (saved as a wmv file) and easily uploaded it to vimeo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Tip #2: be careful about your music choices. Vimeo prefers audio files in mpeg format, so I made sure my song was an mpeg (you can usually convert songs from one format to another-but sometimes it's a pain). I learned this at 3:30 this morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tip #3: Try to incorporate current pictures/characteristics of yourselves and children in your video. I sometimes don't realize how fast we all change, and it's so fun to see the change in everyone through the years. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My best friend for this project has been photoshop. In addition, I created a slideshow in powerpoint, and in Windows movie maker. I can't tell you how much I hate Movie Maker. It makes timing your clips (slides) a HUGE pain. I don't recommend them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, that's all for now! Anyone else have any bright ideas they want to share? Do tell!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-5494758544395543954?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/5494758544395543954/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=5494758544395543954' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5494758544395543954'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/5494758544395543954'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/i-made-janna-cry-again-i-rock.html' title='I made Janna cry again: I ROCK!'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7607174246698668421</id><published>2010-12-28T10:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-28T10:58:15.293-08:00</updated><title type='text'>FINALLY</title><content type='html'>We really hope you enjoy this!If not, Sarah will have given herself carpal tunnel in both arms for nothing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/18246016" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/18246016"&gt;Untitled&lt;/a&gt; from &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/user2772854"&gt;Sarah Rew&lt;/a&gt; on &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com"&gt;Vimeo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-7607174246698668421?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/7607174246698668421/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=7607174246698668421' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7607174246698668421'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7607174246698668421'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/finally.html' title='FINALLY'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-1096784459906297966</id><published>2010-12-27T22:43:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-27T23:49:00.272-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Florida Rews are finished!</title><content type='html'>Whew!

Well I had the pleasure to have one for a full hour last night... for FREE!!! Man, I should tell you that I would pay big bucks for one of these. Since I am a big couponer, I got my first hour free and plan on signing up under 10 different names to get 10 more hours for free! :-) If you would like to take advantage of this deal here how it works... (note: this offer is only available in the greater Tri-City WA area) when you feel at your wits end with your newborn baby you call 555-555-5555 and leave a message (they have caller ID) saying "accordion lover" you should receive a phone call within 10 min. This special code will give you your first hour free. If you agree to listen to him play the accordion for 15min. he will add a bonus 30min for free. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;To all you new moms that just don't know what to do with a crying infant this is a lifetime opportunity. For those of you who do not live in the greater Tri-City area I recommend you research one in your area.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;He specializes in infants that:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. do not tolerate their mothers eating anything with flavor&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. poop every 10 min and then proceed to scream in pain from diaper rash&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. have colic that only occurs between midnight and 3am.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I hope all of you enjoy this as much as I do!!

There is nothing left to say. It's Jen who writes this so speechless is an accomplishment. I am sure there are funny things left to write about but I can't think of them and that's likely due to all the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;dirty&lt;/span&gt; jokes Janna keeps sneaking into her daily tweets. It's been quite distracting for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This weekend I will hand off the passwords to the family. The idea is that everyone will post funny stuff themselves. Most likely you will only hear from Janna and we can't promise it will be g-rated. In the spirit of setting the bar low, if nothing else check back for the videos on Christmas Eve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get the video cameras out everyone there is &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;I am told that Dad made it home from the Thousand Islands in time to help Janna and grandsons finish putting lights on the Christmas tree. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Janna thought it would be a great time to talk to the kids about the nativity and the true meaning of Christmas. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Howard thought it was the perfect opportunity to, well, expand their minds.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Thera admits that she wasn't expecting an afternoon at Nana and Papa's to be so informative but said "one less awkward conversation I have to have with the boys." &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Howard's side is simple "I was only explaining the male and female ends of the Christmas lights."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Janna states "I left the room for a moment to get my step stool and came back and Braden was saying so that's where babies come from?!?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;To be fair to my Dad I am pretty confident he was only explaining electrical components. I also know how thorough Howard can be and therefore am pretty confident Braden now knows where babies come from. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Having taught some of my children the birds and the bees I found this tactic to be brilliant. I plan to send the rest of my children home to decorate Christmas trees over the next few years. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Howard's going to be embarrassed over this post but not quite as embarrassed as the time Janna convinced him to go hot tubbing. The evening ended with Janna having to take scissors to cut his swimsuit off of him. Do we really even need to know more? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The story gets funnier every time Sarah tells it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-3561314445015745253?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/3561314445015745253/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=3561314445015745253' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/3561314445015745253'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/3561314445015745253'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/why-papa-howard-doesnt-swim.html' title='Why Papa Howard Doesn&apos;t Swim'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7220363109671695550</id><published>2010-12-10T11:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-10T12:46:14.333-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LAME LAME LAME</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TQJ7h_GmhMI/AAAAAAAAAE0/zsnAxIZUZCI/s1600/2055420689_d5d669cda3%255B1%255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 334px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549133514678895810" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TQJ7h_GmhMI/AAAAAAAAAE0/zsnAxIZUZCI/s400/2055420689_d5d669cda3%255B1%255D.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Congratulations Sarah on winning yet another contest. It is exciting to know that someone is still reading this website. Your prize...drumroll...nothing.

If I were Ryan I would take this as a sign and start stocking up on Coca Cola and cancel the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;BYU&lt;/span&gt; channel. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Next week is our last formal week of film festival posting. On Monday the 20&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; I will turn the password of this blog over to the rest of the family for them to post as they wish leading up to the 24&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;. If last year is any indication expect that week to be a &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;snoozer&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;On the 24&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; everyone will upload their videos. Yes, Josh, Sarah, Brad, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Thera&lt;/span&gt;, Missy, Ryan, Howard, Janna, Chad and Jen you are supposed to be doing a video.

Miracle was given her namesake because of her miraculous conception after a tragic church basketball injury. Brad and &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Thera&lt;/span&gt; waited five long years for her. Brad's a little embarrassed so he insists on calling Miracle "Sophia" after his favorite sister-in-law. This just infuriates Sarah. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Brad was also a little angry when he found out I had spilled the back story to Miracle's name on the blog. Rumor has it he wanted to give me the finger but unfortunately Brad attended the ward turkey bowl and now all his fingers are dislocated. Which is worse than his usual groin injuries but better than the time he burst a kidney at a stake tournament.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Recently when Brad got both his front teeth knocked out at open gym, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Thera&lt;/span&gt; just lost it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am told she said, "Brad enough is enough. I will not stand by as you slowly kill yourself at three on three tournaments and pick up games."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;To which Brad replied "&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Thportth&lt;/span&gt; are my life!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-2816878051325045612?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/2816878051325045612/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=2816878051325045612' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2816878051325045612'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2816878051325045612'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/who-is-sophia.html' title='Who is Sophia?'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TP7_yeJBKQI/AAAAAAAAAEk/nNwgJPTbydk/s72-c/89369815%255B1%255D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-6789552171710574718</id><published>2010-12-06T08:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-06T07:35:24.822-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Fat Chance</title><content type='html'>Each year we as siblings with the help of our spouses and children make a video that is a Christmas gift to the rest of the family. Ideally it is funny because after all Christmas is about Joy. Each year, however, it's the same song and dance....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Chad's the star of Jen's Video&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Sarah does all the work of Josh's Video&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Missy and Ryan wear a different colored scarf and their dogs assault each other while Emma looks on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Brad and Thera show off their athletic ability&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For Example...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you remember the year the theme was "Ancient History"? Sarah recreated a pyramid and taught her children to write in hieroglyphs but Brad and Thera just video taped their kids playing Lacrosse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you remember the year the theme was "The 80's"? Chad learned all the choreography to Thriller and performed it with his family as back up dancers but Brad and Thera simply taped a swim meet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about the year the theme was "Wild West"? Missy and Ryan wore scarves and cowboy hats in front of their tree but Brad and Thera had qualified all their kids for the Junior Olympics in archery and video taped it for all to see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This year the theme is "Talents" and Thera had their video submitted six months early.

Dad felt it was safe to leave Janna who is still dealing with her grief but is back to aimlessly perusing craigslist. There was a rumor that the grandchildren were planning (in an attempt to cheer her up) to come over and help set up Christmas decorations. This would involve noise, dirty fingers, possibly furniture rearrangement, small pieces and a slight mess and so Howard was willing to take his assignment however bad it may be. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Howard is on a vessel. He didn't have to leave the country and yet he felt he should bring his passport. He only has a two day supply of food and water. If you don't guess his location by Friday he will resort to drinking his own recycled urine water, but, not because he has to, just because he wants to. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Good Luck!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-682252527475052450?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/682252527475052450/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=682252527475052450' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/682252527475052450'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/682252527475052450'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/12/where-in-world-is-howard-rew.html' title='Where In The World Is Howard?'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TPam9-z_niI/AAAAAAAAAEc/3PxxHGSXMG0/s72-c/alfred-eisenstaedt-commuters-catching-trains-at-evening-rush-hour-in-grand-central-station%255B1%255D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7153164519461085452</id><published>2010-11-29T07:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-29T07:26:48.944-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Surely You Can't Be Serious?</title><content type='html'>I am serious and don't call me Shirley.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heart break and tragedy has struck everyone in the family this day and quite possibly everyone in the world.

Did you know that Thanksgiving sometimes falls on his birthday and this year it did. How perfect was that going to be? Thursday the family gathered for a birthday dinner and to hear Ryan's big announcement. I had arranged for a correspondent from 3SFF to record the event. But, the unthinkable happened....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ryan opened his mouth to make the big announcement and like an eagle hunting prey &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;MISSY &lt;/span&gt;swooped in and stole the moment from him. Apparently she had been sitting on th&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;IS&lt;/span&gt; juicy tidbit for about &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;8 WEEKS&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ryan was crushed. He called me to complain-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; "You know", he said "I am a pretty patient guy, I watch the Tab Choir when Janna wants me too, I let Missy decorate our house with crafts from her church nights, I endure Howard bearing his testimony every awkward moment he can get , but this, this, it was too much. This was suppose to be my week. My one chance each year to take control of this crazy situation I'm in and call the shots." He took a &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;PREGNANT&lt;/span&gt; pause and then ranted some more "No more Ryan why don't you come to dinner and then bam&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;!&lt;/span&gt; general conference happens to be on. No more disapproving looks when I walk in the room with a can of ...Coca Cola. You see for me Thanksgiving is the game changer each year I set the stakes and see if they truly want to play ball."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has taken a couple days for him to come around. &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;MISSY&lt;/span&gt; has apologized and says she &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;FEELS&lt;/span&gt; awful and says she's &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;JUST NAUSEOUS&lt;/span&gt;. Whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here it is folks this years "Conversion Challenge 2010"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Howard must play the classic "Do As I Am Doing" on the accordion with Janna on vocals while playing the tambourine. Of course entirely in the nude. To make it just that much more challenging this year the song must be performed at FHE. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why did Ryan choose this? It's payback for all  the awkward FHE's he's had to attend when everyone sings songs like "Popcorn Popping" and he has to pretend it's somehow normal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the challenge is met Ryan has agreed to take the discussions all through the month of December and be baptized in the Columbia River on Christmas day. Of course Brad will baptize him because Howard will no longer be worthy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!

He let me in on it a few days ago. We have a tradition here at 3SFF that Ryan makes a big announcement every Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is the holiday that Ryan gives thanks that he only married a Mormon and not a Quaker because, after all, things could be worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each Thanksgiving he gives my parents their one big chance to win him over to the green jello side. It's a challenge of sorts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Thanksgiving you will not be disappointed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What else is going on in the family?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, since you asked, Miracle is doing great. Brad's been giving Thera a break everyday by taking Miracle to open gym with him. Miracle is getting slowly indoctrinated in the ways of the bomber. She has been dressed in nothing but Green and Gold since birth and it will remain that way until her 18th birthday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Josh and Sarah have taken up cloth diapering little Louisa and therefor we have lost all contact with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chad is busy doing everything. Jen spends her quality time on wikipedia and google. The children are barely surviving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy, of course, has a severe addiction to yarn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know what you are thinking, wow, Howard and Janna really screwed those kids up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, as Ryan says, it could be worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above picture courtesy of my new favorite website "whatnottocrochet.wordpress.com" where people can submit things that should not ever have been crocheted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-4534111255094264788?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/4534111255094264788/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=4534111255094264788' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4534111255094264788'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4534111255094264788'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/11/it-could-be-worse.html' title='It Could Be Worse'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TOVDuUxusAI/AAAAAAAAAD0/c087EWacosQ/s72-c/bride-of-chuckie-2%255B1%255D.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-5937362707499234275</id><published>2010-11-17T10:33:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-17T10:48:27.421-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Tragedy Strikes Moon Race 2010</title><content type='html'>Minutes ago our cyclists were attacked on the track.

We will be bringing you live coverage of the event tomorrow. We are keeping the location and time under wraps due to threats made by our rival film festival family. We are trying to arrange security since last weekends poisoning but Brad's napping and Sarah has lost Josh in a library. Howard is still on location in the most visited city in the world. We could use Ryan, like last year, but he's reluctant. It's cold out and Missy hasn't finished knitting his winter coat.

It went like this -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy: "Jen, brace yourself, I have some bad news."&lt;br /&gt;Jen: "Oh no, you've run out of yarn?!"&lt;br /&gt;Missy: "No, that would be almost as bad, but, Dad is selling his beloved accordion on craigslist."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Missy is a habitual craigslist shopper like her mother)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jen: "What? No, not the accordion, we have so many lovely family memories of Dad serenading us with the accordion. Think of the Christmas's, the St. Patty's days, oh, they will never be the same."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy: "Yes, Dad is truly talented, our childhood was filled with music because of him."&lt;br /&gt;Jen: "Does mom know?"&lt;br /&gt;Missy: "She's too pre-occupied taking vocal lessons and tweeting."&lt;br /&gt;Jen: "Vocal lessons? Well it's about time."&lt;br /&gt;Missy: "Do what you can Jen."&lt;br /&gt;Jen: "Don't worry I'm on it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I put staffer Mason on it. He is our techno guru (the only staffer besides me that can use e-mail) and he did some investigative work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turns out Howard is just upgrading and the vocal lessons Janna is taking are all part of big surprise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Howard and Janna are going to be performing for us soon!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Howard on accordion and Janna doing a vocal solo. They said if we want we can choose our favorite childhood song for them to sing. Missy has agreed to video tape it and post it to Youtube for me. What we need is your ............... &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;song ideas! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;So post them. Janna has told me that she is going to be dedicating the performance to her new granddaughter "Miracle" (what a lovely name). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you don't know, Miracle was born this morning at 2:30 am to a very thrilled Thera and a relieved Brad. What a blessing, Brad can still have children since his tragic church basketball accident.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For me I have great memories of Howard singing "Another One Rides the Bus" by grammy award winner Al Yankovic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Congratulations Brad, Thera, Braden, Bradley, Christine and Miracle!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-7602355201449697160?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/7602355201449697160/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=7602355201449697160' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7602355201449697160'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/7602355201449697160'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/11/speaking-of-hidden-talents.html' title='Speaking of Hidden Talents'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-351651287907384951</id><published>2010-11-09T19:23:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-09T19:28:52.761-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Hidden Talents</title><content type='html'>Who knew that Josh and Sarah were once Olympic competitors?

He is famous for popularizing Thousand Island dressing among other things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy won the platypus beanie and has agreed to make Janna a special gift. Janna will be &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;receiving&lt;/span&gt; a custom crocheted lap dog sweater for the future &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;yapper&lt;/span&gt; Howard will never actually let her have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brad, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Thera&lt;/span&gt;, Josh, and Sarah are all in dead last entirely due to lack of effort. Josh says he is busy working on a PHD, something he has been claiming for years and quite frankly we are all pretty skeptical. Brad is, as I have said before, at Open Gym. Ryan also has done nothing this week but everyone gives him a pass on account that he's married to Missy, a job in itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The point totals are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy - 9&lt;br /&gt;Janna- 1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hint on Howard: When Howard developed this passion Janna was very irritated.

He's tired of being stuck in Germany. He is enjoying the people, since the inhabitants of this town all share something in common with him. He has, of course, already looked up all the Rew's in the phone book and made personal calls to them, but he does that on any extended vacation. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now Howard is left to wondering the streets of this 330 year old city shaped like a hexagon looking for people in need of advice on whether to buy or lease a car.

You must name the town. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I had hoped to entice you with some sort of crocheted &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;knick&lt;/span&gt; knack, but, alas, Ryan has hid the knitting needles. Apparently he is heading up some sort of intervention. He claims Missy spends her days knitting beanies and watching "Keeping Up with the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Kardashians&lt;/span&gt;".

Tomorrow we will return with an update on the scores and rankings, and also what prizes have been one and what prizes are still to come. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also we have &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;received&lt;/span&gt; no news on Miracle Baby as of yet.

This morning has been business as usual at Film Festival Headquarters. Someone forgot to fill up the gas tank of the company car (my money is on David), so staffer Chad had to ride his bike while wearing his Jesus Heals t-shirt and carrying a gas can all the way to the local gas station and back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you haven't been following along (referring to Josh), Missy has successfully guessed &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;every one's&lt;/span&gt; character except for Dad and Chad's. I need to clarify that Betsy Ross was not chosen for her refusal to marry a Quaker (although that is hilarious) and instead for her &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;insistence&lt;/span&gt; on always having &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;some type&lt;/span&gt; of sewing project in her lap. Chad is Otto &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Schnering&lt;/span&gt; best known as the inventor of the Baby Ruth candy bar (Chad's favorite) and also best known for his ongoing lawsuits with the great &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Bambino&lt;/span&gt; over the candy bar, which was supposedly named after Ruth, Grover Cleveland's daughter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am going to give everyone the rest of the day on Dad's. There is a hint hidden in this very post.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-4131230335888663959?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/4131230335888663959/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=4131230335888663959' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4131230335888663959'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4131230335888663959'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/11/running-on-fumes-mayo-and-bit-of.html' title='Running on Fumes, Mayo and a bit of Ketchup'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TNBIF_61FuI/AAAAAAAAADU/bgJ38bVqDvc/s72-c/untitled.bmp' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-1684889559924475805</id><published>2010-10-31T20:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-31T21:50:14.490-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Film Festival 2010 Teaser</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TM5G_p00sBI/AAAAAAAAADE/2xRtfo8Uhvw/s1600/political+platypus.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 270px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 186px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534439051458031634" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TM5G_p00sBI/AAAAAAAAADE/2xRtfo8Uhvw/s320/political+platypus.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's that time again. The staffers at film festival headquarters in Arizona have been working very hard preparing for what we hope will atleast be the second best year ever. There are new games and great prizes and lots of family secrets to reveal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In honor of election week we are kicking of the first post with a patriotic game. You might have noticed that the profile pictures have changed. Each family member is being depicted by a famous or somewhat famous American.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you guess them? And even better can you guess why I chose them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll give you a hint. The chosen American shares a life experience or character trait with their assigned family member.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As usual here at film festival headquarters we are offering fantastic prizes to the winner. Missy has generously offered to crochet one of her famous animal head winter beanies for the event She has entitled it "The Political Platypus".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact all the prizes this year will be crocheted articles of clothing by Missy. She is feverishly crocheting as you are reading this, only stopping occaisonally to facebook about her progress and also about what she is cooking for dinner. There will be prizes along the way but also we will be using a highly complicated point system to keep track of everyone's scores. Once a week we will update the rankings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Post your best guesses!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;What else can you expect this year?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A new weekly special "Where in the World is Howard Rew?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be following the birth of Brad and Thera's miracle baby&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Janna will have a daily segment entitled "Janna Tweets"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And many other exciting things to be announced later!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-1684889559924475805?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/1684889559924475805/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=1684889559924475805' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/1684889559924475805'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/1684889559924475805'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2010/10/film-festival-2010-teaser.html' title='Film Festival 2010 Teaser'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oWFQ_tvLNBU/TM5G_p00sBI/AAAAAAAAADE/2xRtfo8Uhvw/s72-c/political+platypus.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-4079634955771861084</id><published>2009-12-25T16:18:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-25T16:42:07.788-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Merry Christmas!</title><content type='html'>This has been so much fun. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Below is all the family videos&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Everyone did one which is amazing. I'll be coming back occasionally to post anything funny that happens. If you hear rumors that Howard has backed through the garage door again or that Janna wet her pants at a ward party come hear for the true and accurate details. 3 squares film festival is the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;TMZ&lt;/span&gt; of family reporting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are having a 3 squares corporate retreat in Oregon this summer. We will be making decisions for themes for next years festival. All the children have pledged to lure Howard into hilarious and precarious circumstances while we are retreating in the hopes of some juicy posts for all of you. Janna of course is game for anything we ask her to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally here is some insider info on this years films-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Howard's beard was actually a wool sock pasted to his face with rubber cement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Janna bought dollar store basketballs for her boobs, Dad liked it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah did her entire video herself. It was a masterpiece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom cried upon watching Sarah's video.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chad guessed that Missy had made Ryan wear the scarf in the video.

We decided to have our friends come over to help us and film us. Tom and Julie Hoyle, Tom's sister Kay Nelson, and Carolyn and Bruce Jorgensen came to dinner and then stayed for the movie. US!&lt;br /&gt;It of course never occurred to me that this was a great night for people to drop off goodies to our house. We are in the living room taping when Nadell Ransome drops off goodies and stays to watch the video. Then a group of Young Single Adults came over to sing carols to Tom and Julie because they couldn't find them home. They all came in and watched the video performance. Several other people stopped by. It was like grand central station. I feel as if Howard and I are now seasoned actors. We must have performed 4 or 5 times in front of an audience. Bruce is splicing it all together to make the best video and downloading it on to Youtube for us. (We scored on that one.) Anyway we will be remembered throughout the stake I am sure. I think I had the biggest you know what's ever for everyone to see. We should get the most votes.

After seeing Jen and Chad's picture on their facebook page we knew we had to redouble our efforts.  Of course even though we are paying for the trip to Hawaii it would still be fun to get a million votes. &lt;br /&gt;I was thinking today about our impairments, (Howard's and Mine).  Such as:&lt;br /&gt;Howard is parking impaired.  No matter how many spaces there are to park, he cannot find a parking place.  It is even funnier when there is so much Christmas traffic.&lt;br /&gt;We are lipsincing impaired.  We can't seem to just mouth the words.  We seem to need to sing outloud.  Hence the grueling rehearsal.&lt;br /&gt;We are acting impaired.  We want to do our video one way, but when it comes to acting it out we seem to act out just the opposite.  We are like dyslectic actors.&lt;br /&gt;We are politeness impaired.  We are one of those people at a four way stop that keeps letting people go first.  How lame is that.&lt;br /&gt;You get the idea.  Despite all of our impairments, eccentricities and weirdness we have actually been very excited about this laughing Christmas gift.  We have laughed more, I would say loved more, but that would gross you all out, and we have really looked forward to Dec. 23rd. &lt;br /&gt;We hope you are all enjoying being with your families and just having fun. &lt;br /&gt;Thanks Jen for a wonderfully fun idea.  To me it is what Christmas is all about.

"Oh no, Oh no, Sam has fallen into a fiery pit."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Save him! save him!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would then wail,  "How will I ever live without him!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Occasionally it was shark filled waters. They both loved it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With this final post for at least the next few days I know you are thinking, "How will I ever live with out her?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am giving the log-in info to the rest of the family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two things will potentially happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one will post - I will have a triumphant return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone will post - I will have succeeded in my original plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's really a win win for me. But, in case it feels like I have dropped into shark infested waters and you find yourself wailing. Check out another blog I write for  &lt;a href="http://www.politicalfruits.com/"&gt;www.politicalfruits.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has the same humor as this blog, and yes Sarah I took your advice.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-2712884559147715733?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/2712884559147715733/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=2712884559147715733' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2712884559147715733'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2712884559147715733'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/shark-infested-waters.html' title='Shark Infested Waters'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-2794610461013902514</id><published>2009-12-17T08:17:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-17T08:38:48.638-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Rubbing It In</title><content type='html'>Yesterday I attempted to sign up with Youtube. I filled in the required blanks, double checked, hit sign up and received this response-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Youtube finds you ineligible."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I felt totally rejected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have seen some of the lame videos on that website and yet Youtube doesn't think I am good enough for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I tried again with Chad's google info and what-do-ya-know Youtube wants his genius just not mine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He rubbed it in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this is how it works. It's easy. You sign up. Hope for acceptance, and then, download your video. The video can be up to 2gb in size and 10 minutes long. I think we'll be covered. This is how I propose we name them-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Howard &amp;amp; Janna - 3 squares film 2009 1&lt;br /&gt;Josh &amp;amp; Sarah - 3 squares film 2009 2&lt;br /&gt;Jen &amp;amp; Chad - 3 squares film 2009 3&lt;br /&gt;Brad &amp;amp; Thera - 3 squares film 2009 4&lt;br /&gt;Missy &amp;amp;  Ryan - 3 squares film 2009 5&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This way when millions of Americans are watching my video, yours will also pop up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, If I get more hits. I'll rub it in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While typing this Sam came up to me and said "Mom look how big my belly is, I think there is a baby inside."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Sam, only girls have babies"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Then why is my belly so big?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You eat a lot."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"So is there a baby in yours or do you just eat a lot too, Mom?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not my week. I should probably do some sit ups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chad and I like to play a little game when we get the mail. Before shredding the credit card offers, we rip them open to see who was pre-approved for the most. I almost always win. Which is funny since I don't have an income.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chad ends up feeling rejected. Probably because I like to rub it in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am hoping for offers in the mail today to make up for the Youtube incident.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-2794610461013902514?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/2794610461013902514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=2794610461013902514' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2794610461013902514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2794610461013902514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/rubbing-it-in.html' title='Rubbing It In'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-8267231449086045833</id><published>2009-12-16T08:22:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-16T09:13:22.575-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Those Were Good Times</title><content type='html'>This year has brought our family some really good times but also some really hard times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I felt fear when mom was diagnosed with cancer again, and, even more fear when Dad seemed nervous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I felt great sorrow when a dear sweet uncle was also diagnosed with cancer and deeper sorrow when we lost him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There were surgeries, job losses, and just some hard days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thinking of these hard things it's amazing that I could fill more than 3o posts with funny thoughts on our family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that is the great thing about a family, as imperfect as the family unit is, there is always plenty of opportunities to just laugh, even if it's at Dad's expense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember when Mom told me about our Uncle. She asked me to think about memories I have of him. All of them made me smile. I realized he and my Aunt and I had a connection. We both were raising or had raised lots of boys and one youngest girl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought of the time the snakes got lost at their house. I laughed because I could see that happening at my house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we lived in the Turner street house Josh and I would dress as army men and play. I would take my shirt off, strap Josh's Sunday belt diagonally across my chest to hold my rifle. All I wanted was to be a boy named Howard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that same house Josh and I put a toilet out in Dad's garden (a big white bucket buried in the dirt) and pooped there rather than going inside. At this very moment Dad's feeling sick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also remember strangling Brad when I was left to babysit him, but being so proud when he did things like ride a bike at three. I thought, what a brilliant little brother I have. Even prouder when he burnt down the neighboring lot and the fire trucks were called. I bragged to my friends about that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then we had a baby sister. That was so exciting. All my friends were the youngest in their families and here I was with a mom having a baby. Which made me almost as cool as the kid with the broken leg. We all spent so much time making that baby laugh and loving her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night when my family finished our video I sat and watched and thought-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, I am a lucky woman because the man I married has some mad skills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But also, how I will cherish this video forever as it captures a moment with my children when we were just purely having fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So when they grow up and drive me crazy. When our family is just as weird as the one I came from, I'll look back on this video and think-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those were good times.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-8267231449086045833?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/8267231449086045833/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=8267231449086045833' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/8267231449086045833'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/8267231449086045833'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/those-were-good-times.html' title='Those Were Good Times'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7013346561085535885</id><published>2009-12-15T07:44:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-15T07:57:15.809-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Pandora's Box</title><content type='html'>On Friday December 18&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; I will make one final post before the videos go up live on the 23rd.

From Friday to Tuesday December 22&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt; all family members will be free to post whatever they wish. Possibly they want to praise me for my amazing blogging talents and incredible ability to bring family unity. Chad is sure they will want to tease him about his dashing good looks sprinkled with comments about our rapid reproduction skills which probably has to do with Chad's dashing good looks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Wednesday December 23rd the password will change and I will make my triumphant return with the posting of &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;every one's&lt;/span&gt; videos. Sometime this week I will have &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;instructions&lt;/span&gt; on how to post the video to Youtube and what to name your video.&lt;br

Can't think of anything truly funny to fill an entire post. The following are the random thoughts that have filled my head-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One time Chad and I tried to convince Mom she had to ride in a booster in the car when visiting us because she is so short. She didn't. Wish she had, I could have had a long post out of that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has anyone noticed that in all the pictures of Josh and I from our time living in Washington DC we are always posed holding up gang symbols with our fingers. Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, from that same time in our lives I can only remember eating hot dogs filled with cheese and blueberry muffins from the box. Surely we ate others things. Maybe not?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many times a month do I call and my parents have complete strangers staying with them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dad used the same green comb for easily 20 years or more. He may still be using it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Missy mom is folding the towels now like they live in a day spa. Interesting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dad wants to write a book about having a love affair with math.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom reads craigslist to get a feel for what's going on in the community. Ask her the going price for a used riding lawn mower. I bet she can tell you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On one of Chad's first visits to my parents house Grandma talked about her flatulence with him at the dinner table. Her husband confirmed it was aweful. Chad kept a straight face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrows post will be better I promise.

Most their ideas have proven to be a complete bore. This is what happens when one doesn't ever leave college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Josh only knows the words to the anthems of small African nations and Sarah has forgotten there is life outside of Nick Jr. and therefore seems to only know "Dora, Dora, Dora the explorer!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all know they first considered an Osmond song and then moved onto Pete's Dragon as that is Sarah's favorite movie.

It was also the scene of a tragic family accident, so it only  makes sense to return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is there a stage that looks like a fingernail? Radiation exposure likely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The film festival will be catered. I have chosen KFC in honor of late Grandpa Howard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bell Choir will perform a special musical number, followed by Dad on the accordion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missy and I will dust off our jazz boots to perform an interpretive dance to the tune Hakuna Matata with Chad on saxophone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be having a spiritual message along with opening and closing prayers. We don't want Mom to leave feeling guilty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Josh will only be handing out the programs because when he talks, normal people need wikipedia to understand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brad and Thera will most likely be late as they are expected to misplace their video along with their keys.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ryan will be frisking people as they walk in. It's not necessary but he wants to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then if everyone follows through we will finally get to the videos.

Why? Because my parents went in on the VCR with other couples in the ward (you know who you are) and we only got it a few months out of the year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Now:&lt;/strong&gt; Missy e-mailed me to inform us that although Howard specially ordered a Ford Focus with every upgrade Ford makes. He is apparently too cheap to spring for floor mats and has cut carpet cubes for his sweet ride from carpet scraps he was likely storing for no apparent reason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which suddenly reminded me of the old minivan which had absolutely zero upgrades, but we still rode around sitting on towels (not occasionally but always) to protect the upholstery.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-906799778487142219?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/906799778487142219/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=906799778487142219' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/906799778487142219'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/906799778487142219'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/fingernail-of-course.html' title='The Fingernail, Of Course'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-7679064892979851784</id><published>2009-12-08T20:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-08T20:55:55.672-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Guess The Venue</title><content type='html'>We are ready to announce the venue for the film festival!!

Yes, that's correct my mom went to a fellow ward members house, jumped on their trampoline and laughed so hard she wet her pants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom stopping everything to spend a lazy afternoon with us watching Mariners games on the couch. Dad coming home and cleaning the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom watching dirty comedies with us as teenagers and asking through gut wrenching laughter "you're sure this is only PG-13", "oh yes mom".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom then making sure we got the moral of the story.

Which is much safer than my Dad's approach, sleeping while driving the car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom giving us our birthday presents and Christmas gifts with the tags still on them and days after the actual holiday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom fulfilling her dreams of cashiering a dollar store.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom introducing us to uplifting movies and TV shows such as, The Naked Gun, Police Academy, and Saturday Night Live.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-2298646114926914367?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/2298646114926914367/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=2298646114926914367' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2298646114926914367'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/2298646114926914367'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/favorite-things-about-mom.html' title='Favorite Things About Mom'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-685497502959915432</id><published>2009-12-06T19:00:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-06T19:59:03.899-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Blog Intervention</title><content type='html'>I love my parents and for this reason I can longer stand idle while their lives spin wildly out of control. Each year has gotten worse and I fear that this Christmas season may be the point they both hit rock bottom. I feel many of my readers are responsible as they have aided and abetted this addiction for far too long. As hard as this is to write it's time for a blog intervention-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My parents are serial ward Christmas party crashers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year alone they hit 7 parties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now that my father is a high councilman he has access to several stake calendars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Janna does it for the rush but Howard does it for the orange jello and the centerpieces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been told that each ward in the tri-stake area will have their pictures posted at party entrances but Howard has a sophisticated game plan this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They come under the guise of "golden opportunity investigators", "new move-ins", "new converts", "lost and senile", "the special music number" and "Mr. and Mrs. Claus".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One year they came as "health inspectors". Howard took it too far and busted the women working in the kitchen, hence, the no cooking/warm only rules in all ward buildings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We thought this year would be better as Janna had joined a 12 step addiction program. Howard refuses because he says and I quote "I'm a full tithe payer it's within my rights".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources confirm Janna has fallen of the wagon. We are asking all ward activity committees to up their security at their party. Beware that they may even infiltrate committee meetings in an attempt to plot escape routes and influence the canned fruit selection for this years jello.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Security cameras at Sweater Barn in Pasco confirm that a dark haired man in glasses wearing a heavily starched shirt and khaki's recently purchased 22 ugly Christmas sweaters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We fear that the Bonnie &amp;amp; Clyde Christmas Party Bandits are looking to set a record this year with 11 total parties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Should you suspect that your party has been compromised, it is very important that you not approach them without first contacting authorities, as Howard is very unpredictable and Janna has terrible bladder control, a technique she has used in the past as a distraction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You've been warned.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-685497502959915432?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/685497502959915432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=685497502959915432' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/685497502959915432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/685497502959915432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/blog-intervention.html' title='Blog Intervention'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-4006341031105002976</id><published>2009-12-05T12:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-05T13:23:42.898-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy Birthday Thera!!</title><content type='html'>I am not completely sure if Thera is older than Brad. Much like a sleazy cable show, I find myself slightly exaggerating things to keep you coming back for more. It works of course because here you are reading this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wanted to pay special tribute to Thera, because, she like the other in-laws chose this. Josh, myself, Brad &amp;amp; Missy are in many ways victims of circumstance. Thera, however, knew what she was getting into and yet still married Brad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each in-law brings something new and needed to the family. We all agree that only Thera could put up with Brad and for that and so many other things we love her. Some of Thera's great contributions to the family have been Greek food, public nursing, and Opinions-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Greek food speaks for itself, without her blazing the way in my parents family room the rest of us would be nursing our babies in the back bedroom (for Howard's sake of course), and the opinions, well they have been a much needed service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thera has a way to honestly tell it straight and it only makes everyone love her more. If that couch just has to go, or the casserole tastes horrible, if that haircut is definitely not a winner, or you've got spinach in your teeth, Thera will tell you, and we're all better for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would pay a tribute to Sarah and Ryan, but, I am my mother's daughter and therefore haven't a clue when their birthdays are (more about that in the wierd things my parents do post). I only knew Thera's because my mother thought Chad's birthday was actually Thera's, Thera's vice versa, and I had to straighten her out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our family and Brad for that matter is better because he married Thera. So Happy Birthday to You!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-4006341031105002976?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/4006341031105002976/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=4006341031105002976' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4006341031105002976'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/4006341031105002976'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/happy-birthday-thera.html' title='Happy Birthday Thera!!'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145439641481391771.post-3932169189135098354</id><published>2009-12-03T22:58:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-04T11:01:39.354-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Favorite Memories of Dad</title><content type='html'>The truth about my Dad is I can't remember a time when he wasn't faithful and committed to all things that are good.

Auditions for lead singer took place last night for family home evening. Yes, last night was Wednesday but the two previous nights the children were put down early to spare their lives. Between the sea salting of the armpits, the stamping of the bums, the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;occasional&lt;/span&gt; black eye, a &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;neighborhood&lt;/span&gt; streaking incident involving David, and when "wasn't me" hung on the towel rack like monkey bars and ripped it clean out of the wall, the best place for them was out of their mother's sight. Chad believes the bad behavior may be a result of Jen being preoccupied with some blog. Whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let it be known, Phoenix has been practicing for weeks. The auditions were simply necessary because with so much brilliance there wasn't a clear lead singer.

It's ironic that in all the excitement I forgot to announce the winner. I prepared a list of excuses-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Brad was victim of domestic abuse this weekend and I have been worried sick.&lt;br /&gt;2. I spent precious blogging time last night on the phone with my father discussing his bodily functions. Which according to him are working well.&lt;br /&gt;3. Ryan's holding hostages in his garage, which caused me to wikipedia the Patriot Act.&lt;br /&gt;4. My staffers (David &amp;amp; Sam) got into some craft stamps and stamped each others faces and then each others bums. After a lengthy bath it appears that the ink is permanent.&lt;br /&gt;5. I learned in the wikipedia research I did that "Patriot Act" is actually an acronym. I then spent too much time coming up with my own acronyms.

He recognized the challenges immediately. His exact quote was "Sarah's a loose cannon we'll have the terrorists after us before we know it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is when he started constructing what he refers to as "little Gitmo". A place where he could intimidate the enemy and restrain them while retracting valuable information from them to aide his security team in the fight against terrorism. His cover was this, just an average guy that tinkers with old cars. No one would suspect it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our cover was almost blown one morning early in August, when an unsuspecting building inspector stumbled upon our "shop" actually a highly technical torture chamber. Ryan wanted to handle him "dirty harry style" but I feared the man might end up at the bottom of the Columbia River. We enlisted Howard to take care of this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is another side to Howard that many do not know. He gets a thrill out of attempting to beat the system. Unsuspecting traffic cops have been no match for him in a court of law. We all owe our freedom to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are a neighbor of Missy's and wonder why you are hearing slow dripping water and Britney Spears music coming from their garage, it's just Ryan washing the car. Or is it. There aren't any Osmonds posed in a pyramid, at the moment.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3145439641481391771-8885344698161550164?l=3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/feeds/8885344698161550164/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3145439641481391771&amp;postID=8885344698161550164' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/8885344698161550164'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3145439641481391771/posts/default/8885344698161550164'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3squaresfilmfestival.blogspot.com/2009/12/pyramids-building-inspectors.html' title='Pyramids &amp; Building Inspectors'/><author><name>Three Squares Film Festival</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15496981942777995643</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
