I was sorry to hear of Christian Horner leaving RedBull yesterday. Just a few short weeks ago I met him in Montreal and he graciously allowed me to take a pic with him

Ex software developer that went to the dark side (management). Love to build things, proud to have helped make two amazing kids (adults!) Semi-recently moved to Maine from California. I have two white german shepherd dogs that I frequently talk about.

I am surprised by my 21 yr old son and his questions about the big transitions in my life. About how friendships change after college. How did they change for you?
The bill is still a mess but this is a win. Thank you, America. They heard you. House Republicans have dropped the provision that wouldβve sold off 500,000 acres of public land in Utah and Nevada.
One of the great things about living in Maine is that every gas station mini mart has excellent beer choices. Bissell brothers, definitive, foundation. Excellent.
My brother-in-law (sisterβs husband) passed away after a long battle with ALS. He was a devoted family man, lover of good food and even better wine. He introduced me to my first custom surfboard that I still have to this day. RIP Ed Shea.
My god. One of the most mind blowing performances Iβve ever seen, and Iβm literally just on my sofa with my phone on a rainy day.
The Prodigy. At Coachella. Still showing everyone else how to do it. 35 years later. π₯
I'd like to be that dog...
I have an antique house (1860). Remodeling has gone much more slowly than anticipated. Contractor issues, cost overruns, you name it. I do some of the work myself and realize that even the smallest projects can yield great results. Adding an additional garage door opener button makes things easier.
The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation.
When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for.
Unacceptable.
Had an amazing βorange rollβ from the local boulangerie- think cinnamon roll but with orange filling and cream cheese icing. 20/10 couldnβt put down the fork.
Happy spring?
I love the idea of a birthday dinner week. I'm also quite happy to have "birthday yellow sheet cake from a box with chocolate frosting" because that is what my mom used to make me when I was a kid.
I kind of want to go
well, a friend's company just had two large commercial projects canceled. The increase in prices of steel and aluminum was too much to go forward with the project (added 3.5M$ to each project) That was just this week.
Laying off people by "If your badge doesn't work, you're fired" is incredibly dishonorable and cowardly. It doesn't cost anything to be a human being.
we really need a regularly and nationally celebrated late march/early april 3-day weekend holiday
I can't believe they are going to shut down federal student loans. I would never have graduated from college without student loans, nor would my kids be able to graduate without them. I'm very lucky that my son starts his last year in the fall and we have enough to afford the last two semesters.
Damn good question...
the best part. I mean, I don't even buy computers if they don't have the blinken lights
Afternoon walk on Kennebunk beach
Parker seems to be enjoying training
Drove the dogs from Maine to Minnesota for doggy bootcamp. My son was voluntold to join me. Overall not a terrible drive, we took it easy. Great time chatting and the only real issue is the airport was closed due to fog and now weβre stuck in Boston!
Picture of someone taking a picture of their airport security tray with the caption "taking aesthetic airport security tray pics is our idea of an Olympic sport π "
Example of an "aesthetic airport security tray pic" with a purse, camera, sunglasses, watch, shoes and ticket all arranged aesthetically
Just found out about the aesthetic airport security tray pic trend and I'm ready to end it all
Jimmy Carter is welcomed into heaven today. βWell done good and faithful servant.β
He will be missed
Where are those schools? And worse why are companies arbitrarily limiting new hire candidates to βonly ivies β or similar?
boss: i hate "yes menβ
me: yeah. me too
boss: i like employees who speak their mind
me: yeah. theyβre the best
boss: you get me
me: yep
Parker was jealous of Gigiβs treadmill time. So he joined usβ¦
