Happy Battle of Dunsinane day to all who celebrate. Fought #OTD in 1054 on Dunsinnan Hill. (Macbeth survived to be killed another day, 3 years later.)

Back in the states, mired yet again in Ye Olde Urban Hellhole. Like Dante’s Uptown Inferno up in here.

Achievement unlocked: entered 5200-year-old tomb, reached burial chamber alongside my love interest and kid sidekick.

I want America to lead the world in science, in research, in education.

Harvard will always be a key part of making that happen.

Cleveland.
Immigrants built this city and this country, and one designed this building. So glad they came.

Happy Kirk o' Field Day to all who celebrate!

(OTD in 1567, Mary, Queen of Scots' second husband was murdered. The plotters blew up the house where he was sleeping.)

Thanks to The Pinch for publishing my (floridly profane) story of a low-rent Boston bookie who finds his mother possessed by an even lower-rent demon, just in time for St Patrick’s and March Madness.

The Pinch 44:1, link coming soon!
