Hooray for Traffic Delays

On Saturday we went to the annual Celtic Festival in Austin Texas. It is not like this is some incredible journey, we do live here in Austin after all. However on Saturday this 7 mile journey took nearly an hour to get back at the end of the day. When we left home around 8AM we got on I-35, went south for about 3 or 4 minutes, then finished up in the park about 15 minutes after we had left the house. [Read more →]

Lucky Man

I am a lucky man.  I have been married 22 years to the woman who still makes me happy.  I have a 15 year old who will turn 16 way too quickly and he only drives me nuts less than 20 to 25% of the time.  I have a daughter who is going to be the reason that I will get to buy guns.  She is eight years old and is a strong young lady, with a definiteness that is rarely matched by kids her age.

I think I need to just forget about the month of October

My son is in band.  He is becoming an excellent trombone player, and it has pretty much become one of his passions.  Everybody knows about how important football is in Texas High Schools.  Not to diminish the level of importance in any other state, but Texans really have very few other reasons to live.
