  1. When watching DTS it’s easy to forget that Zak also has to be present for Pato and the gang. But then again he has Tony Kanaan as the face of that team.
  2. Funny story. I’ve been hoping my daughter would go to Al Anon. She lives in Chicago, and is starting to get work as an extra in tv and films for some spare cash. Today she shot an episode of The Bear, and you guessed it, she played an Al Anon at Jeremy Allen White’s meeting.
  3. No shit. My daughter filmed with him today and said he was surprisingly short.
  4. That’s amazing and real. Tilly gained 1.3 lbs in the last 3 weeks, and she’s hopefully going to max out at 12 lbs total. Amazing how fast growing dogs can gain weight, and you’re isn’t even a puppy. You’re a good man.
  5. And believe it or not, he’s so lucky he dodges raindrops. He could have taken a lob wedge to the skull from Elin, or a .380 in the balls from a jilted Waffle House waitress’s boyfriend, or he could have been impaled by a utility pole when he rolled the Genesis. Or snapped a limb while playing Navy Seal. #perspective
  6. BRK owns Clayton. And Dairy Queen, Justin Boots, fruit of the loom. I wrote a country song using nothing but product placement. I hope to sing it to uncle Warren before he dies.
  7. https://www.northlandgroup.org/ Breathe. Meetings should be your safe space.

    Holy shit I knew I remembered her from somewhere.

    No, her friend sold Alex’s pilfered family jewels at a back alley discount and relayed the proceeds. Nothing stands in the way of true love.
  10. Nothing soothes anxiety like sitting in a meeting, eyes closed, ears open.
  11. Always tough to follow justhookit but my best friend just sent me this from many many years ago. I'm in the middle with the sow, looking unimpressed. Kids don't know how good they have it. Note - I lost my virginity in the back seat of that Oldsmobile. To an actual female human.
  12. Ashwagandha needs to be taken in capsule form for about a week before the benefits become clear. I had a hop water once and it caused my euphoric recall to fuck with my head, so its a non-starter for me.
  13. Good for Henley. Glad he won Bay Hill.
  14. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) has been used for over 3,000 years, primarily in Ayurvedic medicine, which originated in ancient India. It was first documented in Ayurvedic texts like the Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita, which date back to around 1000 BCE. Traditional Uses in Ancient India: • Used as a Rasayana (rejuvenating herb) to promote longevity and vitality. • Given to warriors before battles to enhance strength and endurance. • Used in spiritual practices to promote mental clarity and relaxation. • Prescribed for stress, fatigue, anxiety, and immune support. Spread Beyond India: • Ashwagandha also became part of Persian and Middle Eastern medicine through trade routes. • Used in Unani medicine, which blends Greek, Arabic, and Indian healing traditions. • Eventually introduced to Western herbal medicine in the modern era due to research on adaptogens. Would you like more details on its historical use in specific cultures?
  15. Ashwagandha might help reduce your cortisol levels. It’s very subtle. But nothing helps me get spiritually centered like 12-step work. I can't, but God can, and I think I'll let him. And its not a fight, its a capitulation. I know what you meant, but the harder I fight the worse it becomes. Learning how to stay surrendered is my lifelong quest. I spent today sitting in a hospital room with my mom at MD Anderson. She just had her bladder removed and her undercarriage rearranged and the nurse brought her some Oxy which she tried to refuse. I had to stress that she needs to stay ahead of the pain and it took all my restraint to not crack jokes in front of the oncologist about how the proper way to take it was to chop it up and snort it. I'm a sicko.
  16. My kiddo is an extra in the Bear, shooting this week. They pay $180/hr. She's playing a girl in a bar, so she's definitely in her element. I'm on the hook to take my nephew to a Cubs game, and my wife for both nights of DMB so Ill be there for end of June and the July 4th. I am contemplating splitting an apartment in Andersonville with my daughter because I sorta want to keep my job and I may have to take on Chicago accounts in order to do so. We were contemplating Wrigleyville but as cool as it sounds its a crazy shitshow for much of the year.

    That was the Gulf of MEXICO. You can see the seawall, which was brand new then.
  18. A member of my slow white family winning a state basketball championship is something we never had on our bingo card.
  19. We've got a state champion in the family. Westbrook beat Birdville in OT. So thrilled for my cousin, who is a JR C. Elijah Garrett is a baller.
  20. I still regret not taking your kid for a fine dining experience at Guacaholic in Fayeteville. I know our sons must have mutual friends in the CAB. Would have loved to shake that young man’s hand. Sadly mine is now in a SF advisory role at Carson. But hey, the off-post Korean food slams and goes hard.
  21. Who likes chicken tendies.
  22. Finally got around to watching the John Mulaney Netflix special where he talked about his intervention and trip to rehab. Cocaine was never my thing but I sure could identify with his behavior. On another note, we finally finished building our new sober living house to replace the one from the 1940s. Got it done between Covid and the nascent trade war. Just under $1M, all financed with gifts and community development grants. I am the money guy, and was holding my breath waiting for obstacles and expenses that simply never materialized. We are blessed with a fantastic executive director and admin staff. The invitation stands, I can get a bed for any man (notwithstanding any felons with violent offenses) who needs a safe place to regroup and live sober. Here’s our story: https://thehowcenter.org/
  23. Herta in F1 for Caddy would be cool.
