Officially the best Sourdough boule I’ve ever made.

One final message: Don’t give into the lies. Don’t give into the fear. Hold onto the truth and to hope. β€” Jim Acosta, former CNN journalist

Enjoying another wonderful half day hot dog with Gwendolyn and her friend, Charlie at Schultz’ Treat Street! It’s becoming a nice half-day tradition. #daddydaughtertime

Enjoying a #HalfDayHotDog with my bestie at Schultz’s Treat Street. She’s ready for a 4 day weekend due to predicted wind chills next week

Screw PJ Fleck and his dumb Row the Boat mantra. After he jilted Western Michigan and left for Minnesota, I thoroughly enjoy watching him lose.

November 16, 2024 One of President-elect Trump’s campaign pledges was to eliminate the Department of Education.

This is a poignant and,as usual, well researched essay on the US Department of Education and efforts to destroy it - efforts expected to be renewed with the new President and Congress. #EDUsky

My poor wife this weekend! She and I hosted some pre-teen girls for our daughter’s birthday sleepover. But then she spent the rest of the weekend raking and hauling leaves from backyard to front. She was so sore. And all I could do was make dinner because my #disability kept me off my feet

One thing I’ve noticed is that, because I deleted Twitter, I can’t view any of the embedded tweets in your articles. No idea if there would be a work around, though

Sick kiddo (possibly strep) this morning, and I didn’t sleep because of my chronic pain. Quite the pair we make today. At least the cats have been snuggly to help us feel better.

I foresee soup and popsicles for lunch! And as much work as I can muster!

They’ll find a way to be more misguided, I have faith in them. Maybe the Pirates can share some of their analytics and scouting with them to bring things down a notch?

Welcome to BlueSky and Kalamazoo! My disability forced me to resign from WMU in 2019, but I still live in town and I’m still a #STEM educator (though I didn’t get elected to the school board). One piece of advice, if you have a craving for an In-and-Out burger, go to Nonla Burger. It’s better!

That’s the plan for Sunday!

The Fellowship movie by Peter Jackson introduced me, but I fell hard and even started going into some of the books of his writing process and how characters evolved long the way. I was much more ready for Two Towers on film

Theoden. The way he treats Merry with respect and essentially almost adopts him. Their friendship as the travel to Gondor was always heartwarming to me

Being handy was easier before the whole disability thing. It would be a great day for my gas log fireplace to be working. Oh well, it’s still a great day for my daughter to turn 12!

Yep, we’re still here, but Oberon day is many weeks away

I didn’t tweet much, but wow has that place gone downhill fast. So now I’m here. Expect #weather posts, #Pittsburgh sports ( #Pirates #Steelers #Penguins ) occasional politics and stupid cat jokes.
