Mom sent a Kentucky care package that arrived today: some Star Wars, a bunch of country ham (you can't get this in Colorado) and chocolate oatmeal cookies- arguably the best evidence for a higher power.

I'm picking up my girlfriend's kids from their extra curricular stuff every now and then these days. And you know what that means. I gotta stop farting in the truck.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.
Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

I have a Ph.D. from one of the top programs in my field. I get to do amazing work in that capacity. I've spoken to people all over the globe. But the guy I call for advice when I really need it? It's the guy I sold cars for 25 years ago. Wisdom is wisdom.
