Supplement to "My Experience Falling Through a Bathroom Ceiling"

Referring back to My Experience Falling Through a Bathroom Ceiling, I’ve always wished someone had taken a photo of the moment. I tried using A.I. to approximate an image of what it might have looked like to see me crashing through the ceiling of a high school restroom.

1.) First try - This first attempt could almost pass for a young Gary Numan plummeting from a high school restroom ceiling. Still, it misses a few key details—the falling debris that should be raining down around me, and, of course, the suit jacket I was actually wearing that day:


2.) This next image is more like it. The image includes the bits of broken ceiling that accompanied my descent. It also depicts me coming down on top of a toilet, which was an integral part of the experience. Bonus point: I kind of look like Ryan:


3.) In the next image, I look a bit like Brother Todd - kick open the door! -


4.) The last one captures my confusion pretty well, though the toilet is crazily halfway up the wall:


Anyway, I guess you would have had to have been there.

First Santa

Anikka’s first visit with Santa Claus; Dec 2021. 


Santa wasn’t actually being scary immediately. Anikka just started crying like crazy when he welcomed her. He did the scary pose real quickly and on the fly for the benefit of a photo when her back was turned to him. He just did that for a second and I’m glad Ericka was ready with the camera.

R.I.P. Jon L. Gilliom: Jan. 5, 1948 – Sep. 7, 2021

It’s been quite a week and I’m sad to say my father, Jon Sr, isn’t with us anymore. “Uncle Jon” was a lion-heart who loved adventure and family, and I know he will be missed by many.

COVID Parking Control

Parking control in the sun’s glare. County employees working at COVID vaccination sites. Gonna have a weird muzzle shaped reverse sunburn.
