Somebody mentioned "about 30 years ago"
And I thought, "the 70s"
But they were referring to 1995.
And now I need to go lie down.

While I can still afford it before tariffs make espresso prices go into treat rather than an everyday pleasure, I am starting off today with a Raspberry Mocha Latte to try and bring some joy into my morning. #ProofOfCoffee

I may look as puffy as the Marshmallow Man, and I probably just as slowly, but that didn't take away from my fun at the #HotChocolateRun 15K in Philadelphia. I mean how can you be upset at a run that ends with Chocolate? #MedalMonday

Since the Hot Chocolate 15k is in Philadelphia tomorrow, it just seemed appropriate to pull out the Rocky Gear for this run. #HotChocolateRun #EyeOfTheTiger

Time to start ramping up the summer racing season. One of the first races I have ever run, and have done every year without fail is the Asbury Park Sheehan Classic 5K. It is in August, it is hot, but it is a great race around Asbury Park.

I would prefer we stay with DST all year long, but until then I will happily push my clock ahead to get the extra daylight hours for the months that I can.

What is better than running a race? Running a race with a free glass of wine waiting for you at the finish line. And it is a nice jaunt on blacktop around the Vineyard. What better way is there to start off the first day of astronomical summer?

The President has time to waste serving as the chairman of the Kennedy Center? Well, in this case yes. The Puppet Masters behind Project 2025 are the ones enacting the plans. This is the equivalent of giving your child a coloring book and telling them to go play while you make dinner.

This is the clear difference between Trump and his minions and people like me. Something doesn't have to affect me directly for me to care about it or those that it does affect.
