We’ve emailed this out to a bunch of friends and family, but if we missed anyone, here’s the original full-resolution image ready for printing (4×6 inch size).
A Mother’s Love
A Second Letter from Vincenzo De Palma’s Lawyer Claiming Libel
Above is a screen shot of the PDF file I was sent via email today by one Becky Mansour, Jeff Bone’s legal assistant. In order to “govern myself accordingly”, I’ve contacted the firm of BURNET, DUCKWORTH & PALMER LLP to advise me on this matter. I find it puzzling that Mr. De Palma’s lawyers think that simply writing the name of their client on this site is libellous. In my understanding of libel law, writing someone’s name online cannot be considered libel. At any rate, I have the weekend to consider my options and the advice of counsel.
A Letter from Vincenzo De Palma’s Lawyer Claiming Libel
Fact: Vincenzo De Palma, President of Concrete Equities, has accused me of libel via his lawyer, Jeffrey Bone.
Fact: I received the following letter today, stating this:
Fact: I phoned Jefferey Bone less than an hour ago to inquire which of my “remarks” they consider to be “defaming” and “disparaging”, but I was unable to get in touch with him. I’m waiting to hear back from him and cannot proceed until I get clarification.
Fact: I’d much rather be editing videos of my son Logan than writing this blog post.
Fact: All information contained in this post is a fact.
UPDATE: I’ve had a short discussion with Jefferey Bone and he’s going to get specifics from his client and get back to me.
The Greatest Baby Shirt Ever Made: Level 1 Human
I used think that the “I’m a Boob Man” baby shirts were the height of baby-apparel humour, but the coolest “onesie” I’ve ever seen is pictured above, made by my brother Aaron. It’s perhaps the ultimate shirt for the son of an old-school pencil and paper RPG guy like myself. That’s the Neverwinter Nights font to boot, so extra geek cred for that. So cool! You’ll have to wait a year to level up Logan! My brother made some other great shirts that I’ll take pictures of soon.
Logan Robert Dunn, Birth to 48 Hours
I’ve finished processing all of the photos I took of Logan and the journey we’ve been through as a family in the first two days, and below are a few sample images – my baby is beautiful! From a photography perspective, I’m stunned at how superb the images turn out with my Nikon D300 and the 24-70 f/2.8 lens. That lens may be as heavy as a lead brick, but it’s worth carrying to get such beautiful photos. Now I just have to get to all those videos I took…and I hope regular readers of this blog will understand that for the next couple of weeks, I’m going to be talking a lot about little Mr. Logan Dunn.
This Is My Son, And I Love Him
It’s really nice to finally have my DSLR with me to take some “real” pictures…
Say Hello to Logan Robert Dunn
At 7:20 AM on August the 16th, Logan Robert Dunn came into this world via C-Section. Both mother and baby are doing well. He’s 20 inches long, weighs 7 pounds 9 ounces, and was born at the Calgary Foothills hospital. The staff here are great – special thanks to Dr. Paul Martyn for the great job he did on the surgery. This is a wonderful blessing, and I’m humbled and awed that God would give us such a beautiful baby to care for and raise.
Great Wedding Photos are Worth the Investment
That wedding I was at last weekend for my sister-in-law (and now brother-in-law). Their photographer has finished processing some of the photos, and has posted them to her blog. Here are three sample images:
Are those some great photos or what? My one and only regret from my wedding to Ashley back in 2001 was that I didn’t find the right kind of wedding photographer…meaning I was focused on not spending too much money, and not focused enough on getting real value for my dollar – and value in this case is having great photos that you’ll appreciate for years to come. I don’t have many regrets in my life, but this is one of them. So if you’re planning on getting married someday, take my advice: don’t skimp on the photographer. Spend the money to get someone good, someone who will take pictures of you all day/night long and really capture the wedding event. In ten years no one is going to remember how fancy the chair coverings were, or what your wedding cake looked like, but photos of you and your husband or wife are going to last forever.
Stoney Trail Mazda Search Results
There are a lot of things I don’t like about Google, but I’ve got to hand it to them: they do search really well. Not even five hours after I did my blog post, it’s already the 6th search result in Google for the terms Stony Trail Mazda. Gotta’ love that!
