Just thought y'all should know that this morning I coughed with coffee in my mouth and spewed it all over my desk and monitors. Equally horrifying and hilarious.
One of the best parts of being a consultant is seeing multiple companies' "Pets" channels in Slack/Teams/etc.
A black and tan dog with cute little ears looking pleadingly at the camera while sitting on a maroon, diamond-patterned rug. His back legs are kicked out to his left side, looking a little silly.
Just thought y'all needed to see Shadow sitting like a doofus.

I've come to the conclusion that Occam's Razor has become outdated in the modern age. I hereby propose to replace it with Occam's Spoon. The explanation that makes the least sense is probably true

If this keeps up, we're gonna have a popcorn shortage pretty soon.
Boston's Symphony Hall lit up in purple. It's a far view to the stage from the second balcony. The Boston Pops are on stage with six other musicians.
Jerry Garcia Symphonic Celebration with the Boston Pops was pretty darn amazing.
Audience member plays Stu's guitar on Dragon and absolutely nails it. What other band would do this? Gizz is the best. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkBA...
A car console with various buttons (seat heater, defrost, etc.). One of which is now labeled with a turtle shell.

A black and tan dog with cute little ears sloppy sitting on a diamond-patterned maroon rug. That is, he's sitting directly on his butt, with one leg under him, making it extra cute. He's staring up at the camera.
