Sometimes, it’s Just a Chicken Sandwich
My 11-year old son unwittingly made a political statement today when I took him to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. Okay, let me correct myself – we BOTH unwittingly made a political statement today when we went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. Such drama in world. Enough drama that one might think that manufacturing MORE drama was unnecessary. … Continue reading »
Monthly DB* ratings ~ June!
We all know them…we may have actually spawned children with one, and we likely have at least one extended family member who’s part of the team. “Douchebags.” Some are easy to spot, thanks to Ed Hardy, Affliction, and an ever-expanding Under Armour collection, they even have their very own fashion line. Others wear the mark … Continue reading »
Baseball and San Francisco
Performance non-withstanding, the West Coast trip by the Rangers certainly brings back some fond memories….as a Texan living in The City (that’s SF talk y’all), the one thing that brought home my Ft. Worth roots was baseball. At the time, that meant going to Oaktown (that’s Oakland talk y’all) for the occasional Rangers vs. A’s … Continue reading »
Dear Adam Sandler….STOP, I Beg of You
Between 1996 and 1998, Adam Sandler released/starred in 3 movies; “Happy Gilmore,” “The Wedding Singer,” and “The Waterboy.” None will show up on a list of Oscar-eligible movies, but these movies will always hold a dear place in my heart as stupidly, insanely funny. Sandler’s mumbly, muted, and consistently funny pop-culture references made for a … Continue reading »
Monthly DB* ratings ~ May!
We all know them…we may actually be friends with some of them, we likely have at least one extended family member who’s part of the team. “Douchebags.” Some are easy to spot, thanks to Tap Out, Ed Hardy, and Affliction, they even have their very own fashion line. Others wear the mark of the “tribe,” … Continue reading »
HEY! YOU! Elevator reminders
One of the many on-line articles I receive is “LinkedIn Today…” short articles, mildly entertaining, semi-informative, and generally a quick read (I mean that in the best way imaginable). One of today’s articles (4/23) is a reminder for some very basic Business Etiquette rules that are often ignored or forgotten. One such reminder deals with … Continue reading »
Monthly DB* ratings ~ April!
We all know them…we may actually be friends with some of them, we likely have at least one extended family member who’s part of the team. “Douchebags.” Some are easy to spot, thanks to Ed Hardy, Affliction, and lycra shorts they even have their very own fashion line. Others wear the mark of the “tribe,” … Continue reading »
Master’s Week Celebration – “Bagger Vance” part II
Will Smith may be the biggest star in Hollywood, something I still struggle with…the man has done a ton of movies, some of which I can’t distinguish from one another, and his performances are largely lauded by the viewing public. To those people, I encourage you to watch “Bagger Vance.” First mistake I made was … Continue reading »
Master’s Week Celebration – “Bagger Vance”
For the golf purist, this is a tough balancing act this weekend…Easter with the family vs. locked-in viewing of the Master’s Invitational. I always knew golf was of the devil. Since I am as golf golf as they come, I thought the moment ideal for a daily quick hit of golf thoughts I have this … Continue reading »
