@amybrown.xyz Hi! I just left Jungle Jim's for the first time and it surpassed my expectations for ridiculous (complimentary). Just two of the too many pics I took while roaming for 1.5 hours. Thanks for giving me the last minute detour on my last day visiting the area.

The water main break on Sunset Boulevard this morning is pretty brutal. But the overhead image of water rushing past the statue of Rocky and Bullwinkle looks like something that would happen in the cartoon.

I was basically playing FIFA when I tossed out this suggestion in 2021. And then somehow Glasner actually came into the club three years later and built a culture that won the trophies I saw Palace hoist only in the video games.
(It'll never happen, but stylistically, Oliver Glasner would've been the perfect person for Palace as-constructed next season.)

Taylor Rooks is reporting that the Chicago Sky traded Angel Reese to the Atlanta Dream. The Sky truly do not deserve, and cannot have, good things. A minor league organization in a major market, like the Bulls.

This is a really belated follow-up, but I happened to run into this display at a bookstore and wound up leaving with a copy of "Breasts and Eggs" because of the discussion we had this morning. This display seems to be the result of her new novel "Sisters in Yellow".

Rest in peace to the most famous supporter of Stenhousemuir F.C., who got me looking out for the results of this third tier football club in Scotland when he surprisingly quoted my tweet about the Scottish Premiership in 2020.
Isiah Whitlock Jr. tweeted on 21 November 2020: "Sheeeeeeee-it! When they're playing Stenhousemuir, let me know."
