You probably don’t think you want to read a book about Oklahoma City, but Boom Town by Sam Anderson is fantastic. If you’re not sure, listen to this episode of 99% Invisible first. You’ll be hooked.

I’m really interested in seeing the new iPad Pro’s 5K external monitor support in action. I’m sure the app support will be terrible out of the gate, but I’m excited by the long term potential.
I wasn’t going upgrade, but that’s damn good sweat and tattoo rendering.
The new Mac mini looks great, though it was hard not to roll my eyes when they were touting performance gains over the previous version.
The Toronto Raptors are for real. Eastern Conference is going to be fun this year. 🏀
Urban kayakers.
I was trying to wait until tonight to watch the Apple event, since I’m buried in work. But I’m a weak, weak man.
I finally got around to reading Shoe Dog. I coincidentally started it a day before the Kaepernick ad campaign dropped. I figured it would be good, but I was surprised by what a page-turner it was. I never realized how many times the wheels almost came off of Nike. 📚
Shuck, sauce, slurp, smile.
Sunflowers in the city. Providence, RI.
Pokémon Go game face.
I just finished Trapped Under the Sea. I’m not sure how I missed this when it happened, since I lived in Boston and read newspapers obsessively at the time. It’s a harrowing story with some fascinating engineering and management dynamics mixed in. 📚
Happy Father’s Day!
“Basketball’s easy now that I’m six.” 😂
Disappointing end to a fun ride with the Celtics this season. This team is going to be good for a while. 🏀
The fact that Ghostery leaked out my personal email address while sending their GDPR mass email is too funny to annoyed about.

Two trade shows in the span of a few weeks is kind of rough when you’re introvert.
That Celtics / Sixers finish was so good by both teams. (Though I’m glad the right team came out on top.) 🏀
Me: “Why are you crying?” Milo:“I got GUACAMOLE IN MY EYE!!! 😭” (Cinco de Mayo problems)
Taste-testing the ice cream offerings in our new town.
Hayley is pleased that the worst of the house move is over, so she can return to her regularly daily schedule.
Looking forward to a Celtics / Sixers playoff series. Just like old times. 🏀
As byproduct of my upcoming home move, I’m leaving my longtime coworking space. I was the first ever member, so I’m feeling a little whistful leaving for the last time. Long live the “Doug Out”.
Downtown Boston bounced back nicely after a rainy start.
