Vampire Weekend at the Hollywood Bowl

Thinking of my son Scott (left) who’s in LA, and missing my first born Eric (right), whom I lost during Covid. What I wouldn’t give to have him back 💔

My White Lotus finale thoughts: Most likely sources of gunshots are the Russians and Gaitok. Dead body in the water is Tim, or accidental victim Chelsea. Saxon makes the suicide shake, but Lochlan drinks it. Or not lol #whitelotusFinale

Happy Half Century Birthday, Pedro 🎂🍻❤️❤️❤️

🦬 New York, see you there 👋

Arthur’s Seat, Edinburgh. Think I’ll try a hike next month when I’m visiting.

How did Pedro get in my feed? 🤣🤣

Embarrassed to be an American. What a disgraceful display of arrogant bullying, from our Prez and VP. Putin must be dancing. 🤬🤬

Vacay in Myrtle Beach 😜

www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c... Yeah so glad we elected Elon Musk 🤬 his pisspot “autistic tech bros” (his description) are laying waste to federal agencies w/o considering anything except their algorithms. It’s going to get worse.

Africa, I miss you 😘

My son made this face when he was two 👶🏻

RHCP! 🎶

www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol... Sharing the article that names Musk’s minions, largely because it’s pissing him off. Share it all you like.

Getting more difficult to even read or watch the news. I wind up enraged. Who elected Elon Musk? Let’s give him unfettered access to all U.S. computer systems so he can fuck us up even more. He has college kids and recent graduates working on this. Wonderful 🤬

Why are we initiating a trade war with Canada? 🇨🇦 As a border city Buffalo will certainly suffer. Canadians are our friends, our spouses, our neighbors. Fentanyl and migrants are NOT pouring over the northern border. This is lunacy. Hope MAGA is happy 🤬

The Royal Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh. April 2024. Author Ian Rankin’s benefit evening and me in the front row!

Spent a cold, snowy day reviewing my list of books read in 2024 and coming up with some “Best Of” picks. Some titles are in Honorable Mentions that might otherwise belong elsewhere. I read A LOT of crime, I noticed 😉
