We'll be there 10/23-29! We're running the half-marathon on Sunday!

Don't know our schedule yet -- the expo on either 23/24, and a park on the alternate day -- but we'll keep an eye out for you!

Unless there's dark chocolate inside, that's not a chocolate croissant, that's just a regular croissant dipped in chocolate.

I really like the new Alexa+ voice. It's so f'ing perky that it fills me with rage first thing in the morning, and that saves a lot of time.

I have both vers. of this album — original and "New Generation" — as my running mix, each track re-timed to 134BPM to match my running cadence.

But this new $500 set is nuts: 16 CDs, 4 LPs and 2 Blu-rays.

(2/2) I asked, "Did he have a tall black hat and long curly hair on the side of his face?"

(1/2) Lifelong NYer here. I was at a national conference on 6th Ave some years ago, and a coworker from Iowa came up to me, shaking.

She said "Some weird guy wearing all black came up to me on the street, out of nowhere, and ... and tried to give me an apple!! So I yelled and ran back here!!"

No one would have believed, in the earlyish years of the 21st century, that human affairs were being watched from the timeless world of space.

No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinized, as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water...

And since the Time Rover significantly only travels through TIME, then the Dinosaur Institute must canonically be situated in or near the Yucatan Peninsula.

The dumb thing is that Dinosaur is ALREADY CLOSELY THEMED to Tropical Americas.

The asteroid at the climax of "Dinosaur" impacted Earth at the Chicxulub crater, located in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula.
