Public Image Ltd playing at a Whole Foods. If someone told that to 17-yo me, I would have thought that was ludicrous. Of course, the idea of shopping at a Whole Foods would have also been crazy.

Even though I realize I have absolutely no chance in winning, it’s still a relief to see that the #Powerball rolled over again after I forgot to purchase a ticket.

Had a little fanboy moment when I saw @doriskgoodwin.bsky.social sitting right next to us at our hotel lounge. Didn’t want to interrupt her but I was dying to ask her what she thought of (waves arms around) *this* presidency.

If you’re attending Tales of the Cocktail in NOLA next week, think about coming to my panel, “Small Cities, Big Cocktail Programs.” I’ll be talking with three bar owners who run great programs in smaller locales about the challenges - and opportunities - that working in a smaller market can provide.

The second the Arsenal game is about to start, it's interrupted with a special report that there is black smoke coming from a chimney in Rome. I haven't been this irritated with black smoke since Lost. #arsenal

Look, I realize that level of education doesn't necessarily mean intelligence, but what amazes me with this cabinet is the level achieved and how far off their education is from the post they are heading.

I think “Word of the Day” has joined the resistance.

Before we dive head first into all that AI can do, is it too much to ask that we can work to building a system that actually generates a dependable weather forecast? I feel like the weather forecasts in Chicagoland are never correct a few days out.

The Pitt (on @hbomax.bsky.social) is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. Medical drama that my nurse wife says is incredibly accurate. Noah Wylie deserves an Emmy.

“Chelsea may have gotten away with another one…”

Feels like another game where they get away with everything and we end up getting a red card. #arsenal

Wait until DOGE sets its sights on the White House for personnel cuts.

My wife eye rolled my comments on election night when I said Russia had to have interfered in this election for the outcome. She said last night that with all of Trumps actions and orders since taking office, it is feeling more and more like that is the case.

So I popped by the local library today, and in their book-sale section I stumbled upon a 1972 tome entitled THE MIND OF ADOLF HITLER, by Walter C. Langer. I couldn’t resist flipping through it, of course, and… Well, I’ll just present this bit without comment.

MAGA are mad at Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit for an official White House meeting.

Sure, he can turn water into wine, but not sure he can turn around ManU like that.

Yeah, the “solution to the attacking problem” is not putting Sterling in #arsenal

Anyone else flinching when they see a player grabbing his hamstring as he goes down. #arsenal

Sterling has got to get off the pitch. Completely ineffective. #arsenal
