What an honor! I was so excited to be a part of this project. Then even happier to see the positive response from fans. To be nominated for an award for something that was such a joy to do, is just incredible. I am so proud of our Skywalker Sound team! Thank you @davidwcollins.bsky.social

Chocolate Chip Cookies should be regulated like Bourbon. If you use anything other than semi-sweet chocolate chips, you have to call it something else. If you add any other ingredients AT ALL, you have to call it something else. You cannot improve perfection. Stop it.

This is what plays in my head every single time someone says the words, “radical left”. It’s the most radical left in cinematic history. youtu.be/kZzwD7I_VXY?...

Finally went in and picked up my #badbatch production crew gear. I like the simplicity of these designs. Thank you, Lucasfilm.

Do normal people eat watermelon with restraint? Or is everyone like me, and you just keep stuffing your face until you’re sick to your stomach? 🍉🍉🍉🍉

A year ago, the weather app on our phones used to tell us what to expect down to the minute. Now it’s like, “It’s going to be 81 degrees tomorrow. Oops, I lied. It’s 99.”

Getting rid of all of the chrome on my truck to match the black shell arriving tomorrow. Plus, these look way better. They used to just blink. #tacoma

I'm not here much, but I have released a new Soundminer v6.2 Update video covering most of the main new features in this new version. It's free, about an hour long and anyone who would like can download it at tinyurl.com/ycy4j6h7.

Why are days suddenly only 4hours long? Weeks are like, 3 days, tops. What is happening to time? It’s Wednesday again? How is that possible?? I did not take a jump to the left, or a step to the right, so I do not appreciate this time warp, again.

Every time I see one of these little guys on our morning walks, my eyes instantly start looking for the mom. I can’t tell you how quickly this pic was taken before moving right along. #coyote

This is the only proper way to hold a child. You can’t tell me otherwise. But anyway, he’s an adult now, and refuses to stand in the palm of my hand anymore for some reason.
