Sounds like a good reason for an even larger group adorning rainbow pride colors to be at the park on Feb 28. And yes, this is about the grift. They're selling Patriots in the Park t-shirts ($30), hoodies ($50) and baby onesies ($20).

Note to self: That tiki cup you used? The one you thought might help make the #colonoscopy prep at least a little more festive (though surprisingly not more enjoyable)?
Make sure to give it a gooooood washing. Either that or throw it out.

I missed this announcement, and I don't feel good about it.
We've done the math: Born Jan. 3, 1975, Danica McKellar is 18,530 days old today, matching Wilford Brimley's age on the day 'Cocoon' was released. Congrats Danica! You've reached the Brimley/Cocoon Line.

This isn't live now, but will probably be the link the Ignite 2025 Book of News. It will probably go live 9am Tuesday when the keynote starts. Enjoy your #msignite! I'll be having a colonoscopy instead, sadly.

Working right now on my pre-colonoscopy meal prep, and there are so many things that I can't have. Even things that are "safe" need to be altered to be pre-colonoscopy friendly. While @getwired.com may scoff at this, I will say that Copilot has helped me a lot on this effort.

At work, I occasionally post tips and tricks to Viva Engage like the hover and scroll volume control with Windows 11. It's fun meeting new people in our company and hearing "Oh, you're the tips guy! I love those!" The downside is people contacting me directly whenever they have issues. Oh well.

Years ago, I read David Allen Getting Things Done, where he discusses offloading to a trusted system. I've tried versions of this, but I always feel like there's something better. Glad to see that I'm not the only one who struggles with this.
