PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Hopefully Game 5 won't be necessary, but if it is, I just thought of the best 60th birthday present you could give me, @raysbaseball.com! #MLB #RaysUp #ForTampaBay 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 05/10/202615th anniversary of the first of 9 years of recurring #cellulitis attacks. This one was a whopper. So were the last two, both in 2020. The last one tried to kill me & had up to a 33% chance of doing so. None since, thanks to an infectious disease specialist's advice (my own Fauci). 110
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Currently flying south every night, around 7 p.m. See you in the spring, Canada geese! Hopefully TFG hasn't tried to rename you by then. (Freedom fowl?) #NC #Photography 050
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I have worn this Tampa Bay Rays shirt every season since the logo and colors changed. It has been through two Rays World Series appearances, both defeats. The shirt is worn out and getting replaced in 2027. Send this shirt out a champion, @raysbaseball.com! #RaysUp 001

PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 10/09/2026I met Barry Melrose (and Steve Levy) briefly at the ECHL (@echl.bsky.social) All-Star Game in 2000. Long line of fans to their booth atop the arena for postgame autographs. Both genuinely nice. Autographs long since lost. 😞 Parkinson's can't hurt you anymore, Coach. 🏒 www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/... 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 06/09/2026He was "raised on Miracle Whip," and his wife "hates mayonnaise also." I'm glad he found someone as wrong as him to share his life with. #Food 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 04/09/2026The temperature and heat index around 2:30 p.m., which may have been the peak for today. The good news is that there's only one more forecasted day of this latest heat wave. #NCwx #ConoverNC 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Pictured in chronological order: 1. Night vision view of the clouds that blocked my view of the partial #LunarEclipse at its peak (12:12 a.m. Eastern time). 2. The view of the moon that I got three minutes later through a break in the clouds. 3. I'm Abe Simpson now. #ConoverNC 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Video of the jellyfish in the sky. #SpaceX #ConoverNC 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Another jellyfish in the sky. Much brighter than last time. #SpaceX #ConoverNC 100

PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I think I just read a murder confession on #Nextdoor. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Overstuffed napkin holder. Mom's ghost works at this Vietnamese restaurant. #ConoverNC 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 16/08/2026I hadn't noticed a #sunset sky in a while. I would've missed the Friday night grape juice and bubble gum hues, too, if I hadn't been told about them. #ConoverNC #NCwx 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Thanks, #LinkedIn, for emailing me today about this "actively recruiting" job that, when I open the link, is actually "no longer accepting applications." Very timely and helpful! 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Don't kill my floating-away vibe, NASA! #Eclipse youtu.be/UnhfUbuvAaY?... 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 08/08/202614 years later, CNBC finally got the #IranWar it was pimping. How's that working out for you, @cnbc.com? 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Grand Haven Township, Michigan. Twin Falls, Idaho. Caswell County, North Carolina. And you already know what "This" is. @theonion.com #Gunmerica 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 30/07/2026The full moon looks like a distant sun on the phone camera's Night Vision setting. #NCwx 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Glen Hansard AND Kavinsky. It's been a hard day for the #music of this century. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 25/07/2026At first after losing my job, I didn't feel like having my usual fun with the text spammers before I report, block, and delete them. But it's coming back to me. Not that a job is yet. #Spam 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Ah, job application rejection email. I *knew* something was missing from my life! #Work 010
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Asheville, North Carolina, and Tucson, Arizona. #Gunmerica 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Wouldn't it be nice if EVERYONE IN ATTENDANCE at tomorrow's #WorldCup final yelled out this time on the play clock, when you-know-who is there? 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Still feels like a waste of perfectly good tea to me. If I run out of these and have to use my Irish breakfast tea bags, I'm going to be even grumpier than I already am. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Well, those three teeth weren't going to pull themselves. 100
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I hope so, too, restaurant menu. You don't know how much. #MentalHealth 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Happy Queen at Live Aid Day (July 13, 1985) to all who celebrate. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 12/07/2026I gave them five-and-one-fourth years, and they gave me two emails. #Work 010
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 11/07/2026We deserved a rainbow after that tornado warning! #NCwx 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Jellyfish effect! Well worth being up early to see in Conover, North Carolina. #SpaceX 010
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 07/07/2026There's a hole in the front yard, dear Liza, dear Liza. (The original song says the hole is in the bucket. We have a bucket like that, too. I don't know what Liza Minnelli is supposed to do about either.) 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Forgot to post about the last day of the heat wave yesterday. But I get so little engagement on here anyway, so 🤷♂️. #NCwx 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 06/07/2026"Someday, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me." (The Godfather, 1972) #WotldCup 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 03/07/2026The peak temperature and heat index around 3 p.m. today, Day 3 of the heat wave. Still curious where the @wbtv.com weather app records this. The @nws.noaa.gov's Hickory Regional Airport station reported a peak temperature of 99 and peak heat index of 103, both around 4 p.m. #NCwx 100
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 02/07/2026"But it's a dry heat, Sarge!" (Aliens, 1986) Peak temperature of Day 2 of the four-day heat wave, per the @wbtv.com weather app. (Not sure of their info source, but it isn't the @nws.noaa.gov station at Hickory Regional Airport. Because that station peaked at 100 degrees around 4:30 p.m.) #NCwx 100
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 02/07/2026I didn't reply "It's a green one," but I so WANTED TO. #Plants 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 26/06/2026The heat index/"feels like" temperature above the actual high for July 1st through 4th in North Carolina will be referred to as a hundred and fuck degrees. #NCwx 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Trump's name might be gone from the Kennedy Center (not that we can yet see for ourselves), but his handpicked board of trustees remains. apnews.com/article/trum... 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 12/06/2026We are gathered here today to pay our final respects to the Triple #Yahtzee dice cup. It gave us 51 years of meritorious service. Many of them spent on a closet shelf, unused, without complaining. Its fake-leather, felt-lined successor can only succeed it, not replace it. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 09/06/202652 years ago, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three taught New Yorkers the proper public greeting for unpopular politicians. 000
PatrickInNC @patrickinnc.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Again, I have a little fun with the #spam texters before I report, delete, and block them. 100
