I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought of this when learning of the Space X rocket's "rapid unscheduled disassembly" this morning...

It's always fun to hang out with Houston Public Media Public Media afternoon news anchor Gail Delaughter, who joined me on Houston Matters this morning. She also recorded these kind words for our program's 10th anniversary, which is coming up Wednesday! Thanks Gail!

The Texas House has banned all photos and video from being taken from the gallery, including by members of the press, so here’s my live look sketch at the proceedings: #txlege

Thanks for asking. Yes. Journalists should interview all manner of people including those you disagree with or dislike. In some cases, those are the ones you most need to keep track of.

I wonder if I helped will today's trending of comedian Phyllis Diller into being. I was just thinking of her straight-to-video turn as Miss Poopinplatz (ask your friends who know Yiddish) in the 1991 horror-ish film opposite Norman Fell. Yes, really.

A shout-out to my friend Matt Derrick from ChiefsDigest.com, who transitioned quickly from victory parade watching Wednesday to disseminating, sharing, and re-posting relevant info in the hours after the shooting. Sorry you had to; glad you were able to.

Happy eclipse day! <expletive>

Well, sure, if you put it that way, it seems like a lot. Because it is. On the plus side, I learned a new word this week.

Tapas, small plates, shareable treats – call them what you will, there are lots of examples of great cuisine in small portions at Houston area restaurants. We’ll find out about some of them on this month’s The Full Menu, on Wednesday's Houston Matters .

Popping in to wish a very Merry Christmas to my friend Matt Derrick who’s covering the #Chiefs #Steelers game right now. Thanks to anyone working today to make others’ holiday better.

The Museum of Fine Arts Houston asked me to pick the next film in its long-running Movies Houstonians Love series. Turned out to be an easy decision: houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/shows…

Of course I will...

On Monday's Houston Matters --- actor @TomHanks! He's headed to Houston for the Space Center Houston debut of his film The Moonwalkers (he co-wrote and narrated it). We'll talk about space exploration with the Apollo 13 star and co-creator of From the Earth to the Moon.
