Gday Gday - How Ya Goin


Tonight during our World Trivia Tour team trivia event at the Elks Lodge in Bismarck, ND, we officially became the “World” Trivia Tour.

One of our team, called “Lifeguards of the Gene Pool” is made up of some Moses Elementary teachers and their friends. Tonight, they invited Aubrey and Martin Beggs from Sydney, Australia to play on their team. Aubrey and Martin are two very dynamic personalities that are part of the Australian Kaleidoscope touring the U.S.

I can say that it was truly a pleasure to meet them and have them officially become a part of our trivia family. I plan to first stay in touch with these fine gentlemen and secondly, purchase their album of traditional Australian music (pictured above). I encourage you to do the same. Share this music with your children and open their minds to a whole new world of culture. These guys are talented!

I wish them the best of luck and safest of travels as they continue to inspire and educate our children.

I am grateful for their willingness to share so much of their lives and culture with the most important people in our world, our children.

Cheers!

Giving Props

I just had to take a moment to point out the website of one of the most talented photographers I have ever seen. His name is Jason Lindsey and is from the Illinois area.

He does some work for the ND Tourism Department and with my company, Odney Adversiting.

I am a weekend warrior sports photographer and when I look at his work, It’s “stunning”. I find myself browsing his portfolio for long periods at a time.

Check it out for yourself! http://www.perceptivevisions.com/

Thanks for sharing your talent with us, Mr. Lindsey.

Class Bs

As I watch the Class B on TV once again, I am taken back to a couple of years ago when I had the opportunity to shot photos of the tournament when it was hosted in Bismarck. Here you see a photo of the championship-winning shot with just three seconds left on the clock to give Dickinson Trinity the state tite.

I am from a Class A school but am in awe of the passion of both athletes and fans for their schools and this sport. It's unrivaled.

Thanks for your hard work, dedication and energy. You truly create a buzz in town during tournament time. It's one of my favorite things about living in this great state of ND.

Game On!
