Wow, Cape Verde came so close to pulling off one of the biggest upsets against Argentina. That had to be the wildest contest of the #WorldCup so far. Had me on the edge of my seat, screaming. Oh well, time for the big match. Let's go #Ghana (vs Columbia).

Kamari woke up from his nap and said, "SAH-krr!" I didn't know he knew the sport. Now I don't have to turn back to The Wiggles. If only Gianna were here too. I'm still salty that Cameroon 🇨🇲 didn't qualify this time around. Croatia vs Ghana 🇬🇭 #WorldCup2026 #TeamGhana #DavisFamilyAdventures

Why Can’t Today’s Children Go Shopping On Their Own? (A Question For National Children’s Day) In honor of National Children’s Day, here’s a look back at how a simple grocery run once taught us responsibility, independence, and pride — lessons today’s kids may be missing out on.

Not without Lee Van Cleef and Adrienne Barbeau you don't!

Finally available for purchase! 🤣 #iykyk

I can't remember the last time I screamed like this during a trailer, if EVER. #EarthWindAndFire #HBO

Bruno Mars lit it up last night. And now Ledisi is coming! SOS Band and the Dazz Band on July 31??? DUDE! This is my kinda summer! #inLoveWithMusic

No gym equipment? No money? No problem! Bring yo' grandchild down to my basement and let's restore the bodies we had before THEIR parents were our babies. *Fresh diapers not provided. #DavisFamilyAdventures #MyGrandBeauties #iAmRoboPopPop

I can only imagine what he said in anger when they cut the interview after she said, "No they're not" (about banking). 🤣

From the Bustin' Loose soundtrack. Still my favorite ballad of all timel! Roberta Flack - Just When I Needed You (Yes, that's Luther Vandross singing in the opening) youtu.be/gio8338Yy78?...

A party ain't a party til the #CookieCapers cousins arrive. Celebrating my youngest's 26th birthday, but these two want to steal the show. #2KBaby #DavisFamilyAdventures #MyGrandBeauties

Me, my oldest son and my buddy Steve will be representing #HouseDavis tomorrow. Let's goooo! #GoT #GameOfThrones

My son and my grandbeauty. She got her first strike in bowling. So adorable and such a clown. That Davis DNA, I tell ya... #DavisFamilyAdventures

Retail Re-Tales: All the World’s a Stage -aka- I Was a Private Investigator (For a Day) A hilarious collection of bizarre late-night retail encounters, from pajama-clad college students and deli-wing feasts to wrestling matches in frozen foods and dystopian parking-lot chaos. Welcome to Retail…

Much better! #MortalKombat2

May The 4th Be With You? I ain't sayin' SITH!! #IYKYK #maythe4thbewithyou #StarWarsDay

My son sent this. The things they remember...

Other than Screaming Wheels roller rink, this was my favorite thing about Gary, Indiana as a kid. #70sChild #80sTeen #iAmOldSchool

Retail Re-Tales: Can You See Where I’m Coming From… Before It’s Too Late? He thought he knew what he was looking at. He was wrong. Today’s Retail Re-Tale is all about action without interaction.

Sharing my thoughts on “I swear” versus a simple yes or no for National Honesty Day. Read the latest at Kenny’s Camera, Cooking and Crazy Confessions at ZootsBlogspot.

Awwwww momma noooooo!!

Hello, Pizza Hut? Yes, I understand that you have a job opening? Yes, I can start immediately...

I am VERY happy with this draft pick. I just knew Minnesota was going to snatch him up. This boy is a torpedo. The Thieneman-Bryant tandem is gonna be sweet. #BearDown #ChicagoBears #NFLDraft

He would have caught that bottle the moment he went in on Target #1. #Zootism #WhyDidIGetMarried

Seen this twice and enjoyed it just as much the second time. Zazie Beetz was born to do action. She can stare at me ANYtime. 🤣 Warning: Not for the squeamish. That's all I got ta say... #TheyWillKillYou #ZazieBeetz

It took the Cubs 100 years to win the World Series. I rejoiced when the Chicago Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup. When the Chicago Bulls won the NBA Championship. When the Chicago Bears won the Superbowl. But I never screamed louder and longer than this magic moment, 10 years ago. #ChicagoCubs

It’s Easter season and for a lot of us, that means one thing—The Ten Commandments (1956) is back in rotation. Click the link below to check out 10 classic scenes from the movie at #ZootsBlogSpot! zootsblogspot.com/2026/04/04/t... #TheTenCommandments #HappyEaster

Finally, my list of powerful moments from the timeless classic, The Ten Commandments.

National Film Score Day: The Soundtrack of Our Emotions Some scenes stay with you forever—and most of the time, it’s because of the music. Today, on National Film Score Day, we celebrate the composers and the scores that turned moments into memories.

Hearing that ice cream truck outside and Gianna yelling, "Hurryyyy...they're almost heeeeere...I'm so exciiited!" Made my day. And then Kamari came in like Deebo, taking my Dreamsicle and Brandon's Drumstick cone... *Deebo voice* "WHAT ice cream?" #DavisFamilyAdventures #iAmRoboPopPop

CamerAdventures: As Luck Would Have It A St. Patrick's Day reflection on luck, timing, what to say, and what NOT to say...

One of my Top 10 fav all time.

We knew this was coming but it doesn't reduce the sting. I'm trying to trust the process, so I'll wait and see how this all plays out. We're going to miss you DJ. Thank you for the joy. #ChicagoBears

When Did All This Happen? (A Question For National Grammar Day) Somewhere between typewriters and TikTok, the rules changed — and nobody told me. Today, I reflect on how “a coffee” became correct, double spaces disappeared, and cursive went extinct, in this witty look at language’s quiet evolution.

(Runs to Jewelry store to purchase engagement ring...)

Stop trying to be like &/or compete with others. Be your own role model. Raise your own bar. Strive to be twice as good as you were yesterday, but not half as good as you're going to be, tomorrow... #Zootism

I Was a Professional Hockey Player (For A Day) This post was originally written and scheduled to run during the Stanley Cup Finals. But after watching the United States women’s and men’s national ice hockey teams both capture gold, it felt like the right moment to share it now. Hockey passion…

Hellebuyck stopped this shot and my heart at the same time! He gave one of the greatest defensive performances I've ever scene. #TeamUSA #OlympicGold #MensHockey #WinterOlympics2026 #iLoveTheOlympics

Oh my God! In 1980 I witnessed the #MiracleOnIce with my father. 46 years later I finally watched #TeamUSA do it again, this time with my oldest son. The women won it 2 days ago and now the men bring it home! This was my Superbowl this year. So proud!🏅🇺🇸🏒 #WinterOlympics2026 #iLoveTheOlympics

This Men's Hockey Gold game has got me sweating like I'm watching my Bears. Overtime. Here we go. #USAHockey #WinterOlympicGames

Am I More Like Martin or Malcolm? A personal reflection on two icons of change — how Martin Luther King Jr.’s compassion and Malcolm X’s conviction shaped my voice, my faith, and the man I’ve become.

You had to see it to believe it. Hillary Knight scores with 2:04 remaining in regulation to tie the game. Then Megan Keller completely freezes the goalie, pulls the puck across her body, and buries a nasty backhand in OT to win Gold 🏅 for #TeamUSA Women’s Hockey 🇺🇸 #iLoveTheOlympics

#TeamUSA scores in OT to beat Sweden 2-1!! I was sweatin' that one out! Next up, Slovakia in the semi-finals on Friday. Meanwhile the Women's team plays Canada in the finals tomorrow! 🏅 #MiracleOnIce flashbacks from 1980!! #iLoveTheOlympics #USAHockey 🇺🇸

The Axe Forgets, But the Tree Remembers A reflection on memory, history, and healing — why the scars of injustice endure, and how remembering becomes an act of power and truth.

I'm going to watch, but I'm not interested in this year's Super Bowl participants. My #Bears against the Steelers (Rodgers) would have been fun, even if they weren't ready. It would have been personal. People love blue collar teams. And it would likely have been a bigger box office draw.

Ok. Yuma Kagiyama just turned that whole arena out. He delivered a near-flawness routine to the remix of Stevie Wonder's "I Wish." I am #TeamUSA all day long, but #TeamJapan brought the nastiness on that. I'm a new fan. #MensFigureSkating #2026WinterOlympics #iLoveTheOlympics

She's not wrong.
