Like so many, my dad was plagued by PTSD and nightmares after the war. In college he switched his major to language and literature because, as he said, "I needed to get it out of my gut...write it down. This is the way it began for me." Image: Rod Serling 1943 & 1974

Forever thankful that, after returning from Iraq & Afghanistan, I was able to return to these two faces. The smiles of my sons, Lukas & Ian, then 13 & 9, are forever etched into my memory. I will always consider myself one of the lucky ones. Happy Veterans Day!

Happy Birthday to the Grand Master, Ennio Morricone.

"Legendary Italian composer Ennio Morricone was born on this day in 1928. His music lives on, resonating deeply with audiences around the world. His genius transcended time and genre, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire and captivate." 🙏🏼🎼🕊️ 📷 Andantemoderato



35 years ago today, on November 9th, 1989, the Berlin Wall opened. Shortly thereafter, it was torn down by the will of the people standing up to a totalitarian surveillance state. W/in 15 months, I reported to duty there as my 1st tour in the Army… And it was extraordinary!

Il y a cinq ans, une promesse : rebâtir la cathédrale Notre-Dame tous ensemble. Aujourd’hui, ses cloches retentissent enfin grâce au travail extraordinaire de tant d'entre vous. Dans un mois, nous rouvrirons ses portes.

A glorious day! The bells of Notre Dame in Paris rang this morning for the first time since the fire in 2019!

I’m a retired Army Infantry Colonel, a Ranger, Airborne & Air Assault qualified veteran of Iraq & Afghanistan. I’m proud to have cast my vote for Kamala Harris not only because Donald Trump should never be near the White House again, but because she has the character to lead.

RIP Quincy Jones When he wasn't making groundbreaking albums with Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, he scored movies. In the Heat of the Night, The Italian Job, The Getaway and this, Soul Bossa Nova from 1962 which Austin Powers inherited. A Legend has passed.


Mister Former Speaker @newtgingrich, respectfully, we ALL remember. As one of my junior officers said to me once privately (on a wholly different topic-combat related PTSD), “Pot?” Pointing to me. “Kettle,” pointing to herself, “You black.” Best to sit this one out, Sir.

I’m old enough to remember when Newt Gingrich cheated on his wife and dropped divorce papers on her while she was being treated for cancer. But sure, Newt…don’t lie to your spouse.



We were so proud to vote in @LongBeachCity at the Senior Center on 4th Street in downtown, we thanked & shook the hands of every poll worker! Thanks to @LosAngelesCount for running such a great, easy & dignified election operation! My wife said, “Gosh, it feels good to vote!”

This is an absolute travesty of leadership and it makes me furious to read. What a despicable example of officer leadership.

My wife is Latina. Her mother from Mexico and her father from Puerto Rico, where she lived in her early 30s. Fuck you and your shitty sense of humor, you pathetic sell-out!

These people have no sense of humor. Wild that a vice presidential candidate would take time out of his “busy schedule” to analyze a joke taken out of context to make it seem racist. I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. I made fun of everyone…watch the whole set. I’m a…
