The marker for the western terminus of US Route 66 on the Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles, California. This shrine to all the Americans who sought a better life out West is a humble one.

By age 30, Palmer Luckey has defended free speech in American public life (risking billions of dollars doing so) and simultaneously secured the future security my children may (or may not) live under, in a California that still seems to hold memories of American greatness. This is a long one, but I humbly suggest worth the time. Zuckerberg and Facebook are unsurprisingly villains in this story.
#LSU pandemonium in Death Valley yesterday, October 12, 2024, after Ole Miss' season died in overtime at the hands of LSU's QB and receiver 1. After the Tiger defense held Ole Miss to a field goal in Ole Miss' possession to begin OT (after a heroic defensive performance during regulation), the Tigers got the ball and on their first OT play Nussmeier threw a strike to Lacy in the south endzone as helpless Rebel DBs stared in shock. This video starts about 10 seconds after that catch. Tiger Stadium went crazy. It was an ugly game full of penalties, mistakes, and reviewed calls, but it was a memorable entry in the LSU/Ole Miss rivalry. The 2024 season is the 100th season in Tiger Stadium, and the program chose last night's game to celebrate the 100th anniversary. The game was a fitting tribute.

Hurricane Francine is making her way out. Saw a little bit of street flooding here on the Eastbank, but only saw one flooded home in the neighborhood. About 9:20 p.m. on 9-11 and the winds are dying down. I hope everyone is high and dry without any trees in their living rooms.
