Also, I found most of the people suggested to be at least somewhat charismatic. They had to be or we wouldn't know about them at all. Do people know what charisma is?

I did sit front center for a Richard Lewis concert. He left us alone despite my brother-in-law looking like his blonde twin––or maybe because of...

As a kid, I fretted that I'd somehow end up at a Don Rickles show in the front center seats. Turns out, I needn't have worried.

Nate Bargatze said on Last Meals that some comedians were having a hard time selling tickets for the front center seats of their shows. So one guy raised the price for those seats and called it The Splash Zone and they sold out, presumably to the type of audience member who WANTS to be "worked."

It's very rewarding to sing. I did it once during a work meeting. Don't think anyone saw that coming.

If Peacock's streaming of Celebrity Traitors UK goes as it did last year, it will "air" end of November. So I have at least 6 weeks of tiptoeing around @richardosman1.bsky.social and Marina Hyde's podcast, The Rest Is Entertainment––although they're likely very good about spoiler warnings.

I used to sing Sir Robin's song on my long walk home from work late at night. I figured no one would attack someone singing and calling attention to themselves. Not sure why I chose: 🎶 Sir Robin turned and fled...🎶 I wonder what people in the houses I passed thought.

Omigod, this is the most heartwarming story possible! Backpack (bear 89) is the son of the 2019 winner of Fat Bear Week, Holly (bear 435). In 2007, he injured his foot & a practice of riding on momma's Holly's back had a new meaning: he was mobility-restricted while it healed. So Holly moved him.
From DISCVR blog's Facebook page, a momma bear & a yearling cub on her back in the shallow water.  I think the background has been swapped out, and I can't rule out some AI use there?  God, Facebook has become the social media for AI slop : (

The title of the article, which I link below, is "How Bear 89 earned the name Backpack"

Thank you to MT Jones for stopping by to sign some Joy vinyl last Thursday before his happy hour for @thecurrent.org and 7th St. Entry gig! These are in our signed records display (we're open again at 10am Tuesday) and we can ship a few too. One per person. electricfetus.com/UPC/50609667...

I once commented on a British fellow's post that a badger chased my dad across a cow pasture and the guy got incensed that I would insinuate that a badger might be mean-spirited. I guess they aren't where he lives.

My favorite thing at that place is the ballroom so that I can visualize scenes from Jane Austen novels. (I think it's the ASI, or is it the James J. HIll house?)
