RIP George Foreman. If you've never seen it, the documentary about The Rumble in the Jungle called When We Were Kings is fantastic. Also, a Criterion release. "The succubus has got him".
I'd be remiss in my duties if I didn't acknowledge the 20th anniversary of Daft Punk's Human After All was yesterday. Not the strongest front to back album but it has some great ones on it. I'll be damned if Robot Rock doesn't still kick ass to this day. Make Love though is my personal favorite as someone who likes music to chill out to.
My wife doubts me but every Christmas I prove I am the Poe Dameron of wrapping oddly shaped Christmas gifts for her family that she herself cannot figure out how to accomplish. I can wrap anything, pal!
The head childless cat lady has spoken. I'm sure people will can't win her or say she should've spoken sooner but she picked the exact best moment to do it. She hit Trump at his lowest point.
I have a newly minted and fully licensed 16 year old driver in the house. Now I have to try to find her a car in our budget that's safe for teens. It never ends.
Nothing quite like teaching your child how to parallel park and you're both sitting in the car parked on the curb watching a video to help her understand the process better and then you hear a crash which is your neighbor who just backed out of his driveway into your driver's side front panel. At least we're both fine and the damage is fixable. But what are the odds?
24 years ago today, a beautiful young lady said yes to a hastily prepared, jumbled mess of a proposal on the cliffs of Mt. Bonnell overlooking the city where we first met. We were married on this day, one year later. Happy 23rd anniversary to my wonderful wife.
Mountain stage of the Tour de France has me really looking forward to my August trip to Denver with a day at Rocky Mountain National Park. Haven't been there since I was in junior high.
It's back! My daily multihour respite from the extreme heat of summer. I can dream of cooler climates like the French Alps. Opening in Florence was beautiful.
