"The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down, of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee." The final voyage of the Edmund Fitzgerald begins November 8.

I just bought beer at the store. The checkout lady mis-keyed by birth year as 1997 instead of 1977, shrugged, and said "eh that works too." The world has ways of making you feel old that you've never even thought of.

Everyone says "I love you" differently. 19yo says I love you by calling from college every few weeks and saying "What's the password for Disney+?"

When you realize all the people upset about the new Narnia movies are upset not because they're unfaithful to the books, but to the...previous movies.

I have not told my wife of this change of heart. I worry when the crucial moment arrives she might opt for the proximity of a Louisiana vault instead of scattering my ashes in the Great Lakes. My preferred eternal destination. In her defense, the lakes are more than a day's drive away."

But in Louisiana, where I now live, the dead don't have the decency to rest out of sight below the earth, instead they reside brazenly above ground, in vaults. And I've found myself thinking "That might not be so bad."

"My wife knows I'd prefer to be cremated because eternity in a crypt underground gives me the willies. My brain knows death is an emptiness in which I'll no longer be aware of human concerns like claustrophobia, but my mind says 'yeah but, what if you are?'

"In retrospect I probably should have talked to my spouse before I spent $9000 on someone's grave vault I spotted while mindlessly scrolling Nextdoor..."

The scene in John Adams where Benjamin Franklin edits the first draft of the Declaration while Thomas Jefferson squirms uncomfortably in his chair is low key one of my favorite in television. Every writer knows that feeling 😂.

I got one of these bad boys for a road trip a couple years ago because I loved looking at it on trips when I was a kid. Our kids were completely uninterested. "Where do I put this? It's huge!"

Can you imagine if the US National Team adopted the Virginia Tech "Enter Sandman" entrance for their World Cup Games? The European mind would melt. #WorldCup youtu.be/YC8LLYMp4M4?...

11yo broke his elbow earlier today. In the exam room a nurse put a pulsometer on his middle finger and he asked her "Is this to count how many times I've given someone the middle finger?" Kids a legend already.
