My opinion on #Gators new hire? I don't have one, because I don't know much about him. But he's our coach and I wish him nothing but success. And a natty or three.

Asking soldiers flying drones to disobey a direct order is REALLY asking a lot (too much). These are NCO, 20ish year old kids in a storage container with a joystick. Now, the COs that is an entirely different story.

Every #FSU fan now understands my deep trauma when everyone in the world knew it was Warrick Dunn that was going to get the ball and all anyone had to do was 'just stop him'. #GoGarors #GoBaugh

This 'Irish Bar' is 100% a fraud. I don't think you could pour a more terrible #Guinness if you tried.

With these health care premiums, I'm just not going to buy insurance, spend that money on booze and travel until I get sick and die. It is insane. No small business can survive $5,500 a month (for terrible coverage). Even if you get sick, youre out 60k in premiums and then out of pocket...

I just heard Roberta Flack's "To Love Somebody" and I would have lost money that it wasn't Brandi Carlile.

Couldnt sleep so I practiced some R coding.
This is % of HH in zip codes in FL receiving (OR NOT) SNAP benefits.

Florida's next LTG and GOV. Change my mind, if you can.

One can generally say this about men: that they are ungrateful, fickle, simulators and deceivers, avoiders of danger, greedy for gain; and while you work for their good they are completely yours....

Yesterday, Auburn lost, Georgia lost, UF did not lose. Almost a perfect college football Saturday.

My brother is taking his son to see Lil Wayne tonight. My brother, the corporate attorney. I would pay great money just to observe him.

The indirect approach is by far the most hopeful path to progress.

"Your capacity for excellence is inversely proportional to the number of your commitments." I wish someone had carved this into me before I ever started a business.

I've fallen down the Sturgill Simpson rabbit hole... Someone should have told me about this strange man before. Loving it.

My brother and I text #Bourdain quotes back and forth and that is almost the entirety of our text chain.

The Spain Portugal soccer match was just beautiful soccer. Great match!

If my coding is correct, this is the estimated number of people who receive SNAP by congressional districts in FL. In my CD, there are 100,000 people.

Band of Brothers marathon gets me almost every time. Just amazing work.

Sinners is a solid film. I want to have dinner with the writer and talk through the creative genesis / process. "So, I'm sitting in a blues bar in Chicago after watching Lost Boys last night on TV while falling asleep......"

If the episode "The Oner" doesn't win all the awards I'm not sure what we're doing here. #thestudio
