Our Minneapolis campus is right on the Mississippi River. There must be hundreds of them around. More coyotes, please! I can't believe people stop their cars for the birds--move slowly, they'll get out of the way!

Looks like it's too early for the hens to be interested in the guy who's trying to strut his stuff!

Goodness, you're brave enough to do knitting! 😳 Hat's off to you, my friend!

I love your distinction!

When I first scrolled through the timeline quickly, I thought you had written "beer-related" papers, which tracks, of course!

This is a horrible thing. Our grandmothers were multidimensional humans, not reducible to someone's algorithm. Those folks should be ashamed of themselves. And as a fellow Southerner, I know you are aware of the weight that phrase carries!

What a great blessing! Reminiscent of the late, great Stuart Scott's ESPM commentary that a player was "as cool as the other side of the pillow."

Happy to see y'all home, but damned if they'll show it!

Glad to hear this! Thank you for posting both the first notice and the result.

Best. Student. Comment. Ever.

Go to Fair State's taproom this weekend if you want an ass-kicking. (Welcome back!)

It's a great piece--I love your close!

Nice commute!

And it might be that bit of bureaucratic grind that forces me out, much as I love the work. I'm no longer salaried, so miss most of the awfulness, but it still comes for me, even as an adjunct. And I'm happy to talk about the evils of "adjunctivation," since mine is a unique case.
