Welp, now I've done it.
I officially informed my employer of my intent to retire in 366 days. It's just a coincidence that if I give them at least 365 days' notice, I'll get a bonus.

Wish we could pretend NORTH didn't exist, so that this list could include THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT, which might not be the best in its genre, but is still a terrific flick.
Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.
Us: Across your entire career?
Reiner: In a 6 year period.

I'm sorry, but I can't read DDL's instagram handle without thinking "Does he pronounce it like Daniel Bidet Lewis?"
(If you've ever heard Tim Cavanaugh's very funny song "Joan Blunden," you might even think "Daniel Bidet-Blewis".)

You can’t outgive your dick. You can’t be a blessing to others without your dick being a blessing to you. It multiplies. It’s going to come back pressed down, shaken together, and running over.

I’ve spent the last few days on Maui, and really really don’t want to go home. Saw whales, waterfalls, and gorgeous sunsets. Now I want to live here. Mahalo, Maui, and aloha!

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

I actually like having a little light in my hotel rooms, since I have such crappy eyesight. And when I'm in Vegas especially, I love all the colors from the neon streaming in...call me weird, I guess.
