Now a toast to friends in Taipei and my cousin in Singapore. 🥂🥂🥂🥂
We have made the wise decision not to take a drink for every time zone, (we have done this) only for those where we have friends and family. Getting too old for this lol

I love this sport so much because on any given day anything can happen and you can be excited for a winner who rides a good race even if it isn’t your guy. It’s long but you can do other things with it on, even take a long walk with the broadcast on the phone, stopping to watch for exciting bits.
Tadej Pogačar on why cycling struggles to be as big as some other big sports:
"Cycling is very particular and not easy to follow or to practice. It is simpler to watch a tennis match than a race that lasts six hours."
He is right, cycling is hard to get into with its complexity

Car pulls into middle of a crosswalk to stop at a red light. Elderly lady with shopping cart stops in middle of crossing the street and yells “See that little person walking on the sign? That’s for me! I am walking here!” I yelled back “You tell ‘em sister!”

I used to bring bananas for all the students for the common midterm and final. I bought a tremendous amount of bananas. So it’s Fitting that a former student sent me this mug for Christmas this year. Covers just about everything in my life now.

When the Kansas City Chiefs move from Kansas City to Kansas City, they'll still be the Kansas City Chiefs. Hope this helps.

Ok, I just hate it when I notice I haven’t been seeing posts from someone I like and then forgetting their exact username so I can’t find them.

Before I dive into my morning writing, here's a reminder from this white cishet guy in his 60s that trans women are women and trans men are men, they don't pose any threat to anyone, and they deserve the right to live in peace. So please stop vilifying them and instead give them your support. Thx.

Bought a hard copy newspaper today, which spouse is reading.
Out of the blue he says,
“At least I am consistent. I have not read the comics in years, and yet, to this day, I still skip Mary Worth.”

Threw out my back yet again trying to put a large pineapple into my shopping trolley after paying at self check out. This may cancel my trip to the zoo for Jungle Bells tonight which was the only darned thing I was looking forward to this holiday season. This just sums up 2025.
