Consolidating my CDs to conserve space, 200+ in and I need to go grab more cases. I grossly underestimated what I accumulated over the last 4 decades. Jewel cases may go, but I can’t rid myself of most of the physical media itself.

Can someone please fix the glitch in the matrix?

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

Everyone loves a “perade”. How many people could have been fed and housed for those millions?

Be safe, MN. A pox on all who support such evil.

It’s a bit early, but Thursday is the 80th anniversary of VE Day. Not the end of WWII, but Victory In Europe. There was another theatre of operations (the Pacific) still active for a few more months, despite what we may be hearing/reading. Education matters. History matters.

Early morning, April 4 shot rings out in the Memphis sky Free at last, they took your life They could not take your pride...

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop them from forming. Keep up the fight.

Quite frankly, I’m surprised we still have a Dept of Transportation.

Unreal.

This is brilliant. music.apple.com/us/album/obi...

Nanook, no no… (Watch out where the huskies go)

Happy Valentine’s Day!

This was easier before progressive lenses and bad knees. Decided to listen to Illini instead of watch. Maybe I should paint during every game?

Then remove all wheelchair ramps.

Is there going to be a tariff imposed upon Will Riley? 🇨🇦 #Illini

According to his logic, should we allow Tommy Tuberville to take a belt to Musk?

So, prices of things we import from important allies will be going up, food we grow will rot in the fields because there’s nobody to pick it, all of the competent people that run the day to day operations of our government are being run out, and that’s the tip of iceberg. Are we great again yet?

Pausing WIC? Really? How inhumane can you get?

Proud Dad moment. He’s still basically a GA, but you have to start somewhere. And this is a great place to do so.

“Back the Blue” this is okay now, I guess.

If you wonder why the top players in the country will be headed to the SEC for basketball and not the Big Ten, it’s because of how the game is refereed. A B1G game is borderline unwatchable due to whistles and style of play by certain programs. And that style is not going to go far in March.

Why do I root against Notre Dame football? I like Marcus Freeman, but the culture that doesn’t recognize Declan Sullivan and Lizzie Seeberg can go do something anatomically impossible.

To a life well lived - Thanks for everything, Mr. Baseball.

Nice night. Thanks for hosting, IU. #Illini

Great bowl season. Illini win, RedHawks win, hello 2025.

Put it in the Louvre. Build the statue. It just means more. ILL!

President Carter was a bright light in how to live a life of service. If all could live to help others, what a world it would be. A true follower of the Word, unlike so many others. Thank you, Sir.

This brought back memories.

Last night, along with the kid, I raised a glass to lost friends and family. To honor their impact on this mudball we call home. And to remember the love. Always the love. To those of you still here, Slaìnte! ❤️

Christmas Blessings for all of you.

Barukh atah Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha'olam, asher qiddeshanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivann lehadiq ner shel Hanukkah. (hope I got that correct)

Calm morning this morning heading in to work. May peace be with you all.

A foggy day in Urbana town

Hazy Shade of Winter today.

Get this album (if you already do not have it)!

#Illini Let’s go!

Happy Birthday, @mattderdamusic.bsky.social Hope it was a great day pal! youtu.be/UxmokXimfDs?...

Happy Thanksgiving! Breast on smoker, coffee in hand (a bit Irish😏), Arlo on. I am thankful for many things - family, friends, health, etc. Enjoy your day, however you celebrate. If you are by yourself, remember that you aren’t alone. Be well.
