Today my wife, Chris, and I announced our retirement from professional journalism. In my case, 50 years at 10 newspapers and a half-dozen websites — the last dozen with Times of San Diego. It's been fun and rewarding (including six tonight at #jawards2025 of SD Press Club). Thx for tips and reading!
Impeachment trial will be lit.

Huge shout-out to the MTS Route 105 bus driver who put my 90-year old mother off his bus because he told her it didn't go to Luna Ave and Clairemont Mesa Blvd. He had her get on Route 43 which actually doesn't go to Luna Ave. She got a nice long walk. 😐
