Odds are 1 in 176 million

But you’re saying there’s a chance…

Congrats, Rosie.

USC is a good school. You even have a former Marquette coach running your basketball team.

Explored the American Museum of Natural History in NYC.

We braved this ridiculous line to try Shake Shack, one of Food & Magazine’s top 25 burgers in America. While not in my top 5, this is a great good old fashion burger.

Dinner at L’Atelier De Joël Robuchon

Foie gras réductions. Even Foie gras sliders. Hamachi. Wagyu beef. Cod. The girls got an education, but will probably say the pizza at Grimaldi’s was the best meal.

New York Harbor.

Across the Brooklyn Bridge we go…


Waiting in line at Grimaldi’s in Brooklyn…

Oysters, what else?

Had the burger at Mario Batali and JayZ’s gastropub, The Spotted Pig. Cool place. The burger was good, but not in my top 5.

My dad once told me that you haven’t really made it until you get sued. Well, I can now say we’re finally prepared to “make it”.

Photo shoot Monday. Dallas Show on Thursday. First time Sonia and I won’t be there. Hopefully sales won’t suffer.

No idea how she can sleep like this.

Best St. Patricks Day Ever.

Marquette Wins! Sweet 16.

Happy Birthday, Sis.

Saw 21 Jump Street. Loved the show as a kid. Brittany thought the movie was great. I wished I could say the same. I was entertained, but stupid is stupid. High School comedies are a staple in every kid’s life. I just wish they would transcend generations.

American Idol is down to their final 13 contestants. With the help of Tommy Hilfiger, they were glammed up and Skylar Laine was outfitted in Basically Me.

Nothing is bigger in Texas than rodeos. And if you want to win Miss Rodeo, you better be wearing Basically Me.

Sean and Sonia took a half day off with me to cheer on the Warriors.

I don’t whether or not I liked the story, but I liked the movie because it had one.

Brit and I explored a bit of Burbank on the bikes today. We visited the animal shelter, but it made her cry. Nevertheless, she wants to go more often. Most distressing about the ride was that she twice beat me in a race.

Selection Sunday

The field is set and Marquette is a 3 seed. March Madness is all I care about until they lose. Hoping for a couple of weeks of bliss before they break my heart.

We celebrated Brittany’s high school season tonight. The best part is that it’s over.

Trying to show off their calves.

Brittany was named offensive player of the year.

Great book.

Day at the Beach

With temps in the high 80’s, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to spend the day at Hermosa Beach. Had breakfast at our favorite spot, walked along the strand, had some shaved ice, napped on the beach and then finished off the day with the perfect Philly Cheesesteak.

My Sunday nap spot.

Happy Birthday, Tom

A very happy birthday to my Brother-In-Law.

Might just be beach weather tomorrow.

Marquette finally won on Senior Day and ended their best regular season since I’ve been a fan. Hopefully they make a run in the tourney and get back to New Orleans.

My dinner. Named one of the top 25 burgers in America, the In n’ Out burger is my favorite fast food burger. Always fresh. Never disappoints.
