Retired from a career of translating insider jargon into language anyone can understand.

Proud to live in the only state that has not voted for a Republican presidential candidate since Nixon.

The garland is up. Christmas dishes are in the dishwasher. I kind of like celebrating Thanksgiving a day early.

I just dispatched my first bat as a solo homeowner. 🦇 Stunned it with a racquet ball racquet, covered it with a towel, released it outside. 🏆
