I know it’s just the beginning of May, but the Cubs are 8 games over .500, have a 4 game lead in the NL Central, have a +69 run differential, and are somehow doing it while weathering the loss of their ace starting pitcher? This could be a fun season.
Amused that this line about the heavily male engineering school I went to always gets the best laughs.

I had the chance yesterday at my church’s Adult Forum to share my story of growing up fundamentalist evangelical and my eventual journey to joining the Episcopal Church. So much to try to share in an hour, so much I’m sure got left out. Still good to tell the story.
My daughter sent me her final project last night after she got a glowing email back from her prof. And just the title block gives you some idea why. It’s not just a Dynamic Systems project: it’s modeling the action of a swinging saloon door in a classic western. Complete with cartoons. Amazing.

Well, I wasn’t feeling great about that game when the Avs went up 2-0. But a hat trick from Rantanen in the 3rd? Wowza. Here’s hoping we can get Heiskanen and Robertson back for round 2. Let’s go Dallas!
