I would choose Dallas over Houston solely for the weather. Dallas at least occasionally has fall and winter, and the humidity sometimes goes down a little bit. Both towns are home to some of the angriest drivers in the world. Likelihood of being gunned down in the streets is about the same in both.

I was thinking about coal miners and health insurance companies earlier today, and some of the same thinking can be applied to ISPs and media conglomerates. There's this strange idea in America that everyone has a right to run a business and make money. To push health insurance companies out of the market by…

Actually, the NFL called and asked that they be a little more hush-hush about the police blotters. Maybe replace with sideline cam footage of the cheerleaders.

Alternative facts!

Interesting. I suppose if I was living under a rock (no offense intended) for 15 years and then rejoined the world, I'd be wary of seeing it as well. I dislike horror films, and I'd have to be really interested in the actors to watch a creepy or tense thriller. But I wasn't living under a rock, so I got swept up in…

I think there should be an opt-out option in the US. You pay no taxes of any kind. But then if you use a public road, or eat food not grown on your land, or need a firefighter to come to your house, etc, you get a bill for all the back taxes you opted out of. Everybody foolish enough to accept this offer would…

That's great news. Try and stick with it. I've been smoke-free for 7 years now. Every couple months, I have a vivid dream where I start smoking again, just sorta casually, one or two a week. And then suddenly I can't stop and all of my friends and family are so ashamed. It helps a lot.

I had durian ice cream and durian chocolate bars in Indonesia. I'm not a fan.

I never would have guessed that bread caused The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

I assume you're well-acquainted with Dawes.

Bacon grilled cheese in the company cafe today. I'm kinda excited.

Chelsea is also intelligent and has enough experience working with non-profits that I wouldn't mind if she was offered a political position.

Last night, I ordered a pizza. Onions, mushrooms, Canadian bacon, and extra cheese. I ate the whole thing alone in a single sitting. I didn't feel great afterwards.

I feel like my IP address got put on a watchlist just from reading this article. If I watched the video, I'd be fired for sure.

We're being incredibly generous. The wife and the very close friend have probably already fooled around a little bit.

If you order something called a Unicorn Frappuccino and expect it to be healthy (or even drinkable), then your expectations might be set a bit high. This drink is clearly designed for people who flirt with danger.

Everybody has some idiotic delusions. I'm not sure what mine are, so I share everything in hopes that someone will set me straight. If I get really mad because someone disagrees with me, I'll know I've found one.
