Suburban Dad in Minnesota. Bylines over the years for many newsrooms alive and dead. This feed has mostly nothing to do with that though. It’s dog photos and sports nonsense.
Got more rhymes than I got gray hairs, and that's a lot because I got my share.

Costco has a nine-tube pack. I’m trying to ration them out slowly, but this feels like I’m just enabling the behavior at this point.
We had a necklace type joint at one point? That seemed promising, but no. No.

I am raising a child who has perpetually chapped lips. And perpetually loses lip balm. ChapStick. Blistex. Carmex. EOS. Burt’s Bees. We’re tired. So tired.
And dry season is just beginning.

It’s so good! The deep dive investigations are great, the silly, curious “what is this about” episodes are great, it’s all so well done.

For her first Halloween, the new puppy went as the satellite dish from “The Cable Guy.”
(She got spayed on Monday. She discovered that if she shakes her head violently, the cone of shame would fly off. Had to double our collar efforts.)

I was hoping Dillingham would be able to step into a bigger role and lessen the responsibility for Conley this season, but it looks like Finch thinks he isn’t ready (if he even thinks Dillingham ever will be).
Is Dillingham going to be Will Avery 2.0?
