    It's been a while since I've shared something I wrote for publication. But I'm grateful @michaelhoinski asked me to write this for @TexasHighways, about my dad + South Dallas, 2 of my favorite subjects. Here's the photo on which the illustration is based. texashighways.com/culture/people…

    When (or, OK, IF) you read this column about my being diagnosed with Stage IV kidney cancer, don't feel bad for me. I was lucky. I met @HHammersMD and got into his clinical trial at UTSW. I just want other people going through this to know there's hope.
    Late-stage kidney cancer should have killed me. Thanks to these Dallas doctors, I have a chance

    This is my father. 76 years old. Battling cancer and numerous other issues. Hell, the man can barely stand some days. Yet he and Mom (who took this photo) just went to the @AACenter to vote. Took them less than 30 minutes.

    20 colleagues at @dallasnews were laid off today -- extraordinarily gifted journalists all. Some are dear friends; each, a writer or photographer whose work made this a better paper, a better city. If you know of any available jobs please let me know so I can pass along. Thanks.
