Two surprise #StPatricksDay cards added into Ascension’s app game today. Guessing they’ll be a one-off, but still cute. #boardgames

Went hunting for #GeeksWhoDrink trivia prizes tonight and found the Alpha and the Omega when it comes to expressing one’s self through socks.

Prepping for a 70’s party… we’ll see how many people I can get to gag.

Was asked a few weeks ago if I could help a friend celebrate birthday today by participating in an 8-player #TwilightImperium4 game. Thought I might have to cancel due to a bout of sickness I’d been fighting, but able to join in for what turned out to be 11 hours of #boardgame strategy/battle. #Lost

When I get to call Ned Rorem “a gossipy queen” in an off-the-cuff moment of live broadcasting… 😇💚💯

To keep up with the thirsting, hearing rumors The Lions will be swapping out placekicker Jake Bates for Mason Bates in the next game.

In case you’re just waking up to your radio, wondering what’s going on… yes, that’s me filling in for Morning Edition on WKAR, alongside my good friend, Bob.

Well, after 9 years as a Classical-only host at WKAR, a post-election exodus of news folks means that I’ll be filling in for my first time ever as local #MorningEdition host for mid-Michigan. Nerves are a bit elevated.

A pre-Thanksgiving ritual I was fine to abandon when leaving SoCal.

“What is this? A concert hall for ANTS?!?”

Now, I appreciate that you’re doing your best to try and help me, iPhone… but no.

Well, *this* car I encountered in #Chicago is ready… but I still won’t let Holiday Music onto #WKAR until post-Thanksgiving.

The #TwilightImperium Monday is underway. It is *not* going well for the Nekro virus. In four attempts at Dreadnaught hits (hitting on 5), three were critical failure 1s. Dagnabbit.

Post Bruch-Scottish Fantasy with Michigan’s Jackson Symphony Orchestra. Great burst of love and laughter from soloist & 2024 Grammy Winner, Melissa White after given a bouquet from her first ever orchestral conductor (back when she was 10, I found out later). #Michigan #ClassicalMusic

He came well prepared for the Scottish Fantasy with the Jackson Symphony in Michigan. Instead of CosPlay, does that make it ScotsPlay? Or is that reserved solely for MacBeth?

Reminds me of that viral video where a reporter repeatedly calls Cillian Murphy “British.”

Getting back into the BlueSky realm with what I think might be an all-time great photo.

What with the Public Radio Program Directors (PRPD) going on… a shot of the First Amendment with Independence Hall in the background.
