Had a great time last night visiting the Hook & Ladder theater in #minneapolis - caught two acts I've been meaning to see for a long time. Turn Turn Turn (pictured) and Maygen & the Birdwatcher.

My favorite part about the Hook might not be the the cozy […]

I made a bunch of jokes on Twitter before the fascist took over and I left. I'm talking hundreds. Mostly bad, of the dad variety. But some got a lot of traction!

(For me, that was more than 10 likes, and more than 5 retweets. I wasn't what you'd call "an influencer".)

I downloaded my tweet […]

Trying to think of what I'm thankful for, giving the upcoming #holiday ...
... my health and family health (although the tickle in my throat refuses to subside)
... being able to watch my boys play college #ultimate (hopefully multiple tourneys in 2026)
... being in a great band with great guys […]

Some pharma company splurged to get Morgan Freeman to appear in, and narrate their drug ad. (Atruby?) And at the end... Morgan says "get busy livin'!"

Lol, can't finish the famous phrase, Morgan, cuz that'd be "get busy *dyin'!*"

Kind of disappointed to see #ecosia jumping on the crummy "AI overview" bandwagon in search by default. Happy that I could opt out, but I would have thought an environmental focused browser/search engine would differentiate themselves by either skipping this garbage - or at least making it […]

Feeling hopeful today after yesterday's #uselections ...we didn't get everything we wanted, but we got a lot. Fingers crossed we can preserve our democracy enough over the next few years so that we can actually have elections in '26 and '28.

Henry David Thoreau is surely rolling over in his grave...or cackling at the irony. Or both.

I, for one, find comfort knowing that the folks at the Robbinsdale Pump 'N' Munch accept ET as the Sci-fi classic it is. They're not like those the haters who say Drew Barrymore wrecked it.

Last night's #insomniabrain topics:
1) what's the name of that cute little town I took my wife to last fall?
2) how does the second verse to "Walk on the Ocean" start?
3) What would it be like to host a house concert in my backyard?

Answers to the first two, which I absolutely HAD to look up […]

I am really really really really tired. At least this week I only work two days before a small vacation, road tripping to Colorado with my daughter so she can play for the state team in USA Ultimate's Youth Club Championship weekend. #dadlife #ultimate

I tell ya, NOTHING lifts my mood on a Friday afternoon than achieving #inboxzero at work. And I'm only working two days next week, so I have a chance of keeping it when I go on vacation!!

Since I'm now auto deleting posts over a month old (except pinned, so I'll pin this one)...it looks like I'm not posting much when you look at my profile. And honestly it's not like I post twenty times a day. But I *am* #onhere almost every day, and posting at least once most days.

All of this […]
