New Post

When I was working behind a computer most of the day, I wrote on this blog a lot more than nowadays. Since my last post, the semester has ended, and we have moved into a new house. I find that playing with our little girls, running, hanging out with my wife and adjusting to the professional whiplash of summer break is a distraction from the blog.

Here are posts that I have considered writing:

Reflections on a recent trip to New Orleans, a tour of the city guided by Tulane and Loyola law professors and the disorienting contrast between the Central Business District and French Quarter with the rest of the destroyed, despairing city.

Review of Spike Lee’s “When the Levees Broke,” along the same lines. We highly recommend it.

Review of Will Farrell’s “Stranger than Fiction,” not along those lines at all. This movie surprised and moved us. We highly recommend it.

Recounting my victorious outing at the JSL golf tournament where I won the closest-to-the-pin competition.

My devotion to our Dreamer Designs double jogging stroller. It rocks, one of Runner’s World top-10 jogging strollers. The two-year-old and I are running every day together.

Our recent renters’ mentality versus the joy of being in a permanent home of our own and the glorious beauty of recognizing that we are exactly where we are supposed to be after years and years of wondering and wandering.

Vanderbilt’s first ever national championship in women’s bowling.

Our forthcoming trip to Malibu and the first extended trip away from our daughters.

I may or may not be a better blogger during this summer break, because I may be outside playing.

I also liked "Stranger Than Fiction". Surprisingly good movie.

I took a chance on "Stranger Than Fiction" last night based on your recommendation.

You didn't steer me wrong. It was a wonderful movie.
