No longer on Tw*tter. IANAL and have no biomedical training beyond secondary school. I do try to travel in good company, though.

All sales as-is.

Oh, cool, a melodica.

Man, do I need to buy a small wicker basket to hold the room's trash bag.

The mice will go after them, and week after week, I pick up this triple-layer affair to tie it off and am showered with rice-sized plastic granules.

I had reason to think about porters today, and aside from the G-d Damn Pigeon from Spiteful Brewing, the Edmund Fitzgerald from Great Lakes Brewing is well worth trying in the reasonably local to Chicago category.

Ship went down on a November 10, 1975, and Gordon Lightfoot's take was just bad.

I had no idea that Charo was married to Xavier Cugat, much less that she trained under Andrés Segovia.

Cuchi-cuchi.

I think Augie the Cat just fully exhaled a building purr and started over.

I suppose I will always regret never having been able to dramatically arrive in Blue Hill Bay by air.

I swear, I was just trying to figure out if there was a way to say hi to someone I knew from long ago and see if the toaster oven that had been returned to her by arduous motorcycle trip had come through OK, and I got the Sierra Nevada Magnetic Arc.

Shopping for boxers on "Black Friday" should not be this baroque.

My foveal vision is for shit, but the peripheral can really pick up the damn mice.

Christ, as though George Lucas hasn't spent so much time fucking up Star Wars that there is what seems to be an ongoing fan reconstruction from laserdiscs, found 35 mm reels, and so forth, there's a "director's cut" of THX 1138. (Hi, ICE!)

Just leave it alone and move on.

This idiocy was bound to happen sooner or later, I suppose.

Still here.
96 years ago today, Motown founder Berry Gordy was born. Where Black music was largely classified as "race records," Gordy was the entity that solidified Black music into the popular music space.

The Motown sound" became the blueprint for pop music everywhere.

And the legend walks amongst us 🙏🏾

Stop. It's been a long time since the union shop in North Carolina.

Just stop. The uppers are the least of your problems.

This is insane. Augie just brought me another mouse, promptly lost it in the bed, and dashed off to look for another one

I regret to report that the audio on readily available videos of the Bob Newhart Show's Thanksgiving episode, "An American Family," desynchs promptly, and the relevant Match Game '77 episode touches only tangentially.

Fear not.

Cripes, it's just past noon in Florida, and my brother is making a roux and planning to serve soon.

I think I took past midnight at least once. Roederer NV and Billecart-Salmon rosé are always and everywhere your friends.

This year is a good reminder that even with each day being a fresh hell, always try to find the good in your life and cling dearly to it.
