PDK-only Parsh is still good Parsh. Just don’t Weissach too close to the sun.

there's a man on this flight whose entire desktop is completely tiled with files, and he's just leaving the laptop sitting open & idle with all of them on display.

The photo I've told so many of you about.
Growing up, dad explained that he'd chosen #69 so that people could still read it if he rolled over.
I believed that for entirely too many years.

Swapped into the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing for the weekend.
I remember being really stoked on these in the moment, then entirely forgetting about both 4 and 5 Blackwings within weeks. I fear that forgettability seems likely to persist: it does a few things pleasantly, but none particularly remarkably

apparently I seemed disheartened by my week of 911, so a sweet pal's solution was to remind me that Good doesn't have to be Dull.
