RIP to the great British writer #TomStoppard, who gave us Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, Brazil, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Shakespeare in Love, Arcadia, The Real Thing, Leopoldstadt and one of my favorite movies, Empire of the Sun. A master with words. #Writersky #Screenwriting

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Flying from Grand Rapids to San Juan PR for a conference today. Everyone without exception … TSA, airlines, airport employees … are incredibly friendly and chipper. Did they all attend a new training focused on “aggressive customer service”?

Day 3! Beautiful walk. Air quality much better between Samos and Sarria than Las Herrerías and Fonfría. Breathing easier and uphill hikes less taxing. #BuenCamino!

I used to know Faulkner pretty well when I was in college.

They eventually told me to remove the corpse from my dorm room, though.

Look at all those young and vibrant believers! 🎶
Good morning to Imagine Dragons who have cornered the 6-11 demographic for so many years. My recess yard duty playlist continues to be full of requests for their songs, including (maybe especially) this one.

Happy Wednesday.
