I enjoyed this piece very much. Wondering if you've ever eaten at one of the Vietnamese restaurants in Bryan-College Station? We moved here 4 years ago when my wife got a faculty job at Texas A&M. The Vietnamese culture in Houston reaches here. My eye doctor is Vietnamese born in Houston.

NCAA is as hypocritical as the institutions and people in Dante’s Inferno.

Still unique, but different than early years. We documented the years 2014-2017. We couldn't do what we did then now. More events now. Plus more congestion in downtown in general, unrelated to festival.

I'm not a photographer but to me websites still matter. I recently bought a giclee reproduction of painting from an artist in Ireland. I saw her work on an album cover and reached out with a query via her website. Turned out we had a couple of overlaps of friends. Sometimes the internet is good.

Yes. This photo and the song would be better if it was raining.

The absolute most generous thing I could say about some of these older Congressional Dems is that they’re decent people who mean well and have had a record of service to their country. And that is absolutely not a reason they should keep their offices.

I went a few times when I was doing The Jazz Loft Project and spoke a couple of times. Haven't been in 15 years or so. Leaning toward going to Tulsa because it's driving distance from here and I've never been to that town.

I wish I could make this. Are you going to the ARSC conference in Tulsa?

Dude has a chance to become a top 5 player in the league. Just can't stay healthy, though.

Clinton got 42% of the vote in 1992. That campaign team is the most overrated campaign team in history, which is saying a lot.

+1. The offseason pick-ups were brilliant.

The only attention they pay is to Fox News. I was in the AT&T store getting a new phone last week and they had Fox News blaring on a giant TV. The three male clerks were all under age 30 if not under 25. For 40 minutes I was there TV was all about Trump's practical deal-making.

Augusta National Golf Club. A certain class of wealthy people are inconspicuous, don't show it off (especially when they don't really have it), and they loathe people that do.
