This morning I got the news that dear family friend passed away. He was more of an uncle. He was battling cancer for sometime. I was always inspired by how he dealt with his condition. It never stopped him from living his life. He will be greatly missed by all.

JFK- Inspired me to learn
Obama- Inspired me to vote
Biden- Inspired me to serve

I’m a proud Dem. Our party isn’t perfect. And that’s fine, because, you should always be working striving for perfection even though it is an impossible feat.

One of the best rite of passages is being an uncle and giving your nieces and nephews shit for silly things.

Rest easy, Ryno.

Fuck Cancer

Band of Brothers never gets old.

Thank you to those men.

I think when I’m old and retired I want to announce high school sports for a school. On Fridays nights you are at the football field announcing the team and doing the play by play.

Or on some random winter night going over the wrestling teams lineup.

Congress should work to get ride of sports blackouts and red tape around streaming of sports .

Happy Bonilla Day Met fans!

I love the fact as a Cubs fan I saw a World Series victory before a Mets fan my age. I can’t stand that franchise or their fans.

DC in the summer is like being in a gym bag that was left in a wrestling room.

We need to have a serious conversation:

Paul Simon’s “You Can Call Me Al” is a fantastic song that doesn’t get enough credit.

I need to learn to cook blue crab this year. I have lived in the DMV for 4 years. Haven’t done it.
