USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.

Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.

I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."

"They just come with the table, man."

They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.

This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.

I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.

"Did we…?"

"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."

Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.

My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."

Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.

I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.

Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.

I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.

Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

Joined the talented people of @NASAStennis for their annual crawfish boil.

This tradition brings together the people, families, and partners behind some of the hardest engineering challenges in the world.

Grateful to everyone helping make our return to the Moon, Mars, and beyond possible.

I'm old enough to remember when Tebow first blew up at Florida. Always thought he had to have been hiding some big secret bc there's just no way anybody is really that good of a person.

20 years later he is the only guy I can think of who was built up by the media to be a saint and has actually lived up to it. Also has a higher playoff passer rating than Tom Brady.

Geralt said it best. Halftime shows are lame and were created so I’d have more time to cook dinner and catch up on golf. #AccompanyingRelevantHashtag

I for one am very upset that we will no longer have the "Mississippi Superconducting Super Collider Authority"

[SuperTalk News @SuperTalkNews]

The Mississippi Senate voted unanimously to trim state government, eliminating over 20 commissions and advisory boards deemed obsolete. The bill now heads to the House for consideration.

I've spent years struggling to prove that the sunk-cost fallacy isn't actually a fallacy. No sense in giving up now, though.

[SuperTalk Mississippi @supertalk]

What does the Lieutenant Governor really mean by “restructuring government”?
Camp Murphy breaks down what that could look like for Mississippi, from consolidating boards and commissions to cutting costs and streamlining services.

[Clifton Carroll @Clif10_]

Getting more Mississippians trained for high-demand skilled careers would significantly raise median wages AND help fuel the historic economic development run Mississippi is enjoying.

It's a big challenge but carries enormous opportunity for the state.

[Magnolia Tribune @magnoliatribune]

Mississippi has a goal of more of its citizens being trained in an industry recognized credential or obtaining a college degree.

Expectations are that legislation will be presented during the 2026 legislative session focused supporting Mississippians in their workforce development educational journey.

Mississippi needs 19,000 more skilled workers than we can train today by 2035. That number isn’t just a projection—it’s a call to action. Expanding training capacity today ensures we meet employer demand tomorrow. Learn more at https://t.co/MucSsZ2DHh
