Since May 29th, every @Rangers game I have watched on TV or in person, they’ve won. Every one I didn’t watch, they lost.

Tonight, the streak is over.

Honestly, I’m glad the pressure is off.


Of course I had to bring the teenage hockey player to Dallas Stars Night at the Ballpark.


Last night I finished the first in Michael Ridpath’s series about Icelander-American detective Magnus Jonson. Tolkien fans should recognize the title phrase, and yes, there is a Tolkien twist. Great read. I’m definitely interested in reading more of Magnus' investigations. 📚


I failed to publicly note it 10 days ago when I finished reading it, but the second volume in Rob Kroese’s excellent Viking alternative history sci-fi series is fantastic. Vikings lay siege to Paris! While others help try to build a space ship… 📚


Ladies and gentlemen, I have been informed that The Empowered Parent Podcast has now been downloaded more than 130,000 times! Thank you, listeners! bit.ly/OBHH-Podc…


Two and a half weeks after the fact, but a lovely anniversary dinner and night with no kids with my bride of 26 years.


New Star Wars shirt. Now why is this a Star Wars shirt?


I’m a couple weeks behind on this season’s Westworld, but finally finished the episode “Kiksuya". WOW. What a performance by @ZahnMcClarnon. It was awesome that most of the dialog in the episode was in Lakota.

I think this is my favorite episode thus far in this season.


Two dollars at Half Price Books and the teenager now has his own copy of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy!


It’s been 10 days since I watched a Rangers game on TV. They haven’t won in that time. Today, I turn it on and they’re tied. I watch the rest of the game and they win.

Y’all, this latent superpower is both scary and underwhelming.


After his basketball doubleheader this morning, brought this incredible kid to see Incredibles 2!

Earlier this week, we released a new episode of The Empowered Parent Podcast, talking about something parents feel but are afraid to admit. empoweredparent.podbean.com/mobile/e/…

Frank Turner at the House of Blues, Dallas, TX, 12 June 2018

My seventh time seeing Frank Turner and the Sleeping Souls. They’ve never put on a mediocre show.


The Menzingers, from Philly.


Hey-ho, hey-ho, hey-ho, with this guy at Frank Turner’s punk rock show.


Finished G.T. Almasi’s Talon of Scorpio this evening, the third book in a fun, alternative history sci-fi series. 📚


The bacon-wrapped filet is so delicioso, I might cry. #FogoDeWOW


Wearing this shirt to dinner at Fogo de Chão tonight, and as we’re heading to our seats, another patron said, “Sir! Excuse me, sir! I LOVE your shirt.” To be fair to him, it is pretty great. flic.kr/p/DYucG7
