Next time I go to Elmwood Golf Course, I may need to take a different route

#Omaha sink hole at 67th and Pacific; another view: cdn.field59.com/OMAHA/ad457b...

First time sledding this year with LilK

LilC was at my alma mater #MillardSouth today for his basketball game. Great game - shots went in at the end of each quarter, including the game winner by Millard South with a Laettner-esque ending www.youtube.com/live/14quUlM...

Snow removal worked!

The "let it melt" snow removal strategy is working for the drive way! #LNK

Up to 8" of snow so far in north central #LNK

Good #Chevy #EquinoxEV efficiency this evening; this would lead to a 400-mile range

LilK and I went to our first #Omaha #SuperNovas match this evening

Pics from half-bday celebration yesterday; we had Lithuanian Bakery chocolate torte leftover from my bday celebration 6 months ago; LilK took the 2nd pic

The last sentence is particularly poignant: "With UNL’s stated goal of rejoining the Association of American Universities, eliminating a highly ranked department makes no sense." 2/2

Print version of the AMSTAT News article "University of Nebraska Regents Vote to Eliminate Statistics Department" is available at magazine.amstat.org/wp-content/u... (see p. 10-12). This article provides more details about what happened at UNL @amstatnews.bsky.social @srvanderplas.bsky.social 1/

3,000th subscriber for my YouTube channel! Multiply this by 100 and maybe this could be my new job www.youtube.com/ChrisBilder

My kids and @kimberlypb.bsky.social aren't home for dinner this evening because they are at various activities. This means that I can make something for dinner that they think is gross. I decided to be very simple: Malt O Meal!

Old school work today: I went to the library stacks to look at a physical book.

Taking my first outdoor swings of the year

... making it difficult to determine which team each player was on!

Tennis today: both teams wore white jerseys with small red logos on upper left side

The Parade of Athletes at the Olympics reminds me of #StargateSG1. Will the Goa'uld be coming out of the stargate too? I hope they have an iris!

LilC's first time running out with the varsity bball team

LilC got a jersey to play on varsity bball team for the first time! The team was then upset by 19 points and everyone had their jerseys taken away

Removed the "Education Matters" sign from my front lawn today. I plan to keep it so that I can put it back up in a couple years when it is needed again. The sign just may not have much meaning outside of Nebraska.

Listening to 90s music while doing a drive that I did hundreds of times in the 90s!

One year since we became a 3 EV family with the addition of the #Chevy #EquinoxEV! I really like the car, but still wish I could use Android Auto with it from my phone. Never will go back to an ICE car. This is a pic from one year ago--it's too cold outside to take a new pic today.

Good day for LilK in Grand Island

Visited #LNK Standing Bear High School this week; they help their students decide between basketball or swimming teams

I hope my next university has warmer offices.

I suspect that I am also still the "scorpion parent" (the designated parent who kills scorpions in the house), but I hope I never need to show-off those skills again.

I am proud to say that I have retained the skills of being the "puke parent" between @kimberlypb.bsky.social and me. I am the parent who can clean up our kids puke without getting sick! I was put to the test this evening for the first time in a long time.

LilK and I attended our first Nebraska athletic event since early September. It's free to attend tennis. We were there to help him learn how to play tennis better, not to root for UNL.
