Works in a library. Socially awkward. I yell at the TV during baseball, soccer and hockey games. Autism father. Haver of unpopular opinions. Griller of sacred cows. Epic force behind Authority Control.

I've removed Authority Control's music from Spotify. To do that it had to leave all streaming platforms, for now I hope. Here's where the art is parked now.

President Trump’s ever-growing vision for a ballroom on the White House grounds has caused tension with contractors. His architect has taken a step back as the president personally manages the project. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/u...

No lead is safe.

Wake Up Dead Man is another excellent film in the Knives Out series. My God Josh O’Connor runs away with the film. It’s a great cast. Daniel Craig is still having an absolute blast as Benoit Blanc. Great to see in the communal experience of a nearly packed theater.

My kids have whooping cough, there are no toys on the shelves, and my brother-in-law was deported despite being a US citizen. But at least I know there won't be black Santa Clauses this year.

I looked up Cromwell Dixon, the boy aviator from Columbus, in the 1910 census (a year before his tragic death). He, along with his mother and sister lived on N. High Street. His occupation: Aeronaut.
