Reinforced this week - a great joy in life is the simple pleasure of breakfast at any decent European hotel. Disparate cultures bridged by a common activity and observed over a pot of coffee or tea on the table.

I know I will find a hole the voice of David McCullough should be filling.

The anticipation and excitement of Ken Burns premiere night.

Coupled with the sadness that it is one of few valuable things PBS now provides.

I won’t tell anyone that I received a shipment of delicious premium beef, but there will be signs.

Like planting a tree, the best time to make bacon is twenty minutes ago. The second best time is now. 🥓

Texas inspections are pointless and this is likely an example that proves it. At an inspection, headlamps and parking lights are manually activated so function can be demonstrated in daylight. Here the switch from DRL to on is misconfigured; an inspector would never know.

[Fred Cantu @fredcantu]

Lately I’m seeing more drivers who don’t realize their tail lights don’t work. The problem will only get worse when Texas stops doing annual inspections.

This bothers me more than it should.

Texas has lost the coin toss in 7 straight games

Got new mirrors for the bathroom and the “customer support” email for the product is charmer666 at popular email platform. What’s the likelihood they are really a portal to another dimension?

My historians heart is heavy this afternoon. More than any other McCulloughs work sparked wonder and made you feel you were in the room where it happened. Every time I write, my aspiration is to find his voice. For all you gave, thank you. RIP

[Ken Burns @KenBurns]

It is impossible to conceive that David McCullough is no longer with us. He is among our greatest historians, writing with an almost magical command of language and story. 1/2

It's no accident the Wright brothers turned their considerable inventive genius from building bicycles to building aircraft and setting humanity aloft.

[Traces of Texas @TracesofTexas]

A funeral procession in New Braunfels, 1899. It's pretty crazy how little bicycles have evolved in the interim. One of my fellow cyclists says that that's because they've always been the most perfect form of transportation known to man. Love the horses and the mourners behind!

Credit where credit is due to @Thermapen for this perfect holiday edition of #primerib. (...and some to me for the flavor. 😉)

I didn’t know I’ve always wanted a TR coffee mug until today!

[The Wandering Historian @TheWanderingHi1]

[Brian Pierce @jbrianut]

Why can I like this only once?! Looking forward to this addition on my next @StilesSwitchBBQ order.

[StilesSwitchBBQ @StilesSwitchBBQ]

If ya don’t know..you can buy your Brisket Tallow at Stiles Switch BBQ by the pint or half pint at both locations. It’s great for frying just about everything. #TexasBBQ #BrisketTallow Up your #Fry game!

[Senator Ted Cruz @SenTedCruz]

By any measure, what the Obama-Biden administration did in 2016 and 2017 pales in comparison to everything Richard Nixon even contemplated.

The Obama administration targeted its political opponents by weaponizing and politicizing the DOJ, FBI, and the intelligence community.
