From a recipe for fish-and-fennel meatballs. " . . . shape into gobstopper-sized balls." Sometimes the @financialtimes.com forget that they serve a global audience.

@jscott-galloway.bsky.social Happy to follow you, even if you're not the Scott Galloway I had in mind. You're certainly more Scottish than he is.

@davidbashford.bsky.social Hi David -- I was also at Forrester, 2008-2012. See here my snarky MOSS post. I'll connect on LI as well.

@petestaiano.com Old Harvard joke. "'Excuse me, can you tell me where the bookstore is at?' The Harvard senior replies, 'At Harvard, we don't end a sentence with a preposition.' The freshman says, 'Oh, right. Can you tell me where the bookstore is at, asshole?'"

I'm caught in a furious running battle between the 1am (CET) kick off of the Super Bowl and the very nice red wine I've been drinking since dinner.

@hangedman1984.bsky.social Please follow back, so we can grow this plant.

@guzz.bsky.social Hi Guzz -- Thanks for the follow. I'm envious of your 1.8k followers! I really hope we can make this place a non-toxic social exchange. Loving your b/w photos.

Pleasantly surprised that Forrester Research still displays my (admittedly timeless) 2009 post lamenting the passing of MOSS in favor of SharePoint. www.forrester.com/blogs/09-10-...

Just to be clear, there is still one (ONLY one) good reason to visit Twitter. (Not quite the first two chapters. If you make it through that much alive, contact me and I'll mail the rest.)

@nicmiller.bsky.social -- Hi Nicola. Are you familiar with Skrei (Norwegian seasonal cod)? I get it every Saturday here in Berlin. A couple of my favorite preparations are with white beans and chorizo and with 24 hour miso-mirin-sake marinade. Now I'm looking for something new. Any ideas?

The long wait is over. You have to ask why Bluesky has no problem complying with the #GDPR, whereas Threads shows no signs of ever launching in Europe. Oh, wait -- no, you don't have to ask.
