Great times!

While I hate to see him leave, I can’t blame him. Great opportunity for a great coach.

Well done, @netflix.com

‘Monster, The Ed Gein Story’ was exceptional!

Sure there will be several awards for this one (esp for Charlie Hunnam, but also Laurie Metcalf).

Outside watching several football games and a neighbor has a few kids (elementary or jr high school?) outside practicing their instruments.

I hear a trumpet, saxophone, maybe a clarinet. While it sounds as bad as one can imagine…it’s beautiful.

Reminds me of my younger days. Old times. Love it.

Sad news. Bill led a wonderful life, and thousands benefited from it. R.I.P. to a great man.

Bill Snyder, 'the students' chancellor' at University of Tennessee in 1990s, dies at 93.

If this proves accurate, I don’t like that Tennessee football is losing Georgia and Florida. However, at least we’ll have an easier conference schedule.

But, Apple quickly moved everyone through (and was friendly & helpful…as always).

It’s all about Nexstar seeking favor for the upcoming acquisition of Tegna (and a weak, sycophantic, FCC Commissioner).

Improper all around.
