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

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...

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

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

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/

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!

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 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.

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.
