As public distrust of police continues to grow, we discuss the media's role in shaping narratives around officer involved shootings. Lt. Col. Gerald Lohr is currently the commander of the Division of Operational Support for St. Louis County PD. He was nicknamed “Officer Friendly” in the weeks of protests and riots after the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO.

We are enjoying a combined family vacation this weekend with @VivaFrei and a routine night fishing turned into quite the adventure. A fish stole the pole then Lynn used his USMC combat diving skills to retrieve both the pole - and the fish still attached! If you’d like the endurance and strength of a USMC combat diver without having to go to endless wars, grab some cod liver/butter oil and more at https://www.greenpasture.org/ and use promo code “ALISON” at checkout.
We buried "Lizzie" after a short friendship. Lily and Jack love lizards. They have become a true delight for them since our move to Florida. Lizzie did not look to be well after a recent cold front and we kept him (her?) inside overnight. The next day Lizzie was dead, belly up. Lily asked to have a graveside burial so she led the proceedings. Overall I think it was a respectful and joyous celebration of life. Maybe Lizzie needed some cod liver/butter oil?

Others have warned me that this is a full time job and they weren’t joking. I was knocking on doors Thursday night til 9PM. We are making progress and I hope to have a livestream this week with attorneys. It’s incredible what I’ve learned in such a short time - and nothing good about the impending onslaught of the technosphere into our lives. Anyway, one funny moment occurred yesterday when Lily came rushing into my office during a 3.5 hour phone call and told me that “Jack did something he isn’t supposed to do.” The kids have been incredible little troopers this week; going with me to notary meetings, waiting patiently for a late dinner, dealing with mommy on the phone all the time. Hopefully life returns to quiet soon and we enjoy de-stressing without a cell tower blocking the sunset behind our farm. DON’T ...
