For those that have not visited my blog in the last 24 hours (and you’re probably in the minority), then you may not know that I’m a new uncle for the fourth time ’round as of about 2:30PM yesterday afternoon.
I promised more pictures of Georgia, and here they are (you can click on individual thumbnails [...]

This one’s for the children.
First, a big ‘CONGRATS!’ to the Hollisters on their new 7lb 6oz baby girl, Sophia Mae. Born in the wee hours of Monday morning, she was almost a Valentine’s Day baby. It’s probably a good thing she wasn’t. But her future boyfriends will surely be happy that they can probably kill [...]

What do you do when you’ve been trapped in your DC apartment for days on end because of the Snowpocalypse/Snowmageddon and can’t make it to your worthless Georgetown Law classes? You read 1,000,000 word articles from The Atlantic, apparently.
And that is exactly what Steve has done. He forwarded me this uplifting piece this morning. A [...]

I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started:
1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead:

But I have a vegetarian family. And we have a ongoing battle between their cry for animal rights and my eating tasty red/white/dark meat (you can read some of the [...]

For some reason, my dad loves the USA Today. I’ve always argued it’s a fake newspaper that doesn’t really offer any real value. It just regurgitates simple tellings from AP stories. The NY Times and Wall Street Journal provide much more insight on stories. But he also likes reading US Weekly for celebrity gossip on [...]

My mom does it to herself. No one to blame but herself. First, there was her hula hooping. Now, there’s no way I could possibly not post these pictures as well.
My parents and brother’s family are in Orlando at Disney World this week. They are going to all the major sites, including Animal Kingdom today. [...]

I’ve had this picture of my mom, a vintage 1992 head shot, laying around for a while in The Great Wahl archives. I was just waiting for the perfect time to use it. I think that day is today. With the Steelers up 28-7 at the end third quarter, I can feel confident in marking [...]

Dom: Hi, Peter. What’s happening? We need to talk about your TPS reports.
Peter: Yeah. The coversheet. I know, I know. Uh, Bill talked to me about it.
Dom: Yeah. Did you get that memo?
Peter: Yeah. I got the memo. And I understand the policy. And the problem is just that I forgot the one time. And [...]
