People are telling Tim Cook stories. I got one. One year for SF Pride Tim was visiting with employees and their families before the parade. I got in line to say hi and he asked if I wanted a photo. I said no, I just wanted to give him a hug. So we hugged and then took a photo.

I had an opportunity to complete the funding for 2 ukuleles for a 3rd grade class so each student could have their own. Imagine my surprise when these ‘thank you’ cards arrived. I need to get a second refrigerator so I can hang them all. ❤️ @donorschoose.bsky.social #ShareThanks

Just stumbled across this audio. In 2022 I was trying to restart my old podcast and created this sound file. I remember how long it took to find all these clips. Makes me realize I may actually like production more than performing!

Waiting for some routine service to be completed and noticed this tableau. Feels like an apt metaphor for the current state of our country.

Just walked over to the large window in my office overlooking the street and started banging it while shouting “Elaine!!! Elaine!!!” I realized no one had the slightest idea what I was doing and it made me laugh.

This is Frankie. He is a very good boy. When the fence came down Frankie would hang around when I was out back so I started giving him treats. Last week the fence was repaired but they refused to make a Frankie window. Now treats go through a knothole and it feels dirty.

He worked with some of the greats. Coppola. Levinson. Lumet. And Irwin Allen. RIP Robert Duvall

The amazing @lorak.bsky.social introduced me to Mori Point during the pandemic (even though I’d lived in the Bay Area forever.) And today I learned that’s where the final scene in Harold and Maude was filmed. RIP Bud Cort. Your work in this film remains unparalleled and a cherished memory.

In my 30s I decided I needed to visit the ocean on New Year’s Day. From Boston I would drive to Cape Cod. Now I come to Santa Cruz. Here’s wishing everyone a healthy, joyous, & fortunate 2026. “There's only one rule that I know of, babies-God damn it, you've got to be kind.” KV

On Feb 24, 2006 I had a podcast (too soon is the same as being wrong) and created a parody in the style of Dickie Goodman covering the time that Dick Cheney shot his friend Harry Whittington in the face. It was in poor taste then. It's in poor taste now. Please to enjoy.

The prompt was “Master pizza maker tosses three pies at once while a crowd gathers behind him and cheers ‘Go Pizza!, Go Pizza!’” Missed it by -that- much. 🤣 #Sora

Ask me why I got my ukulele signed by the members of @everclearmusic.bsky.social last night…(oh, and they blew the roof off the Guild Theatre in Menlo Park. Just starting their “Sparkle and Fade” 30th anniversary tour. Rock and Roll lives!

In breaking news moments like this, there should be a type of podcast you can listen to in real time, easily accessible for free.

Got to see The Big Lebowski on the big screen last night in Monterey California at the Golden State Theater (-near- the In-N-Out on Del Monte) and it was followed by a Q&A with the man himself and at this point the merging of Jeff Bridges and Jeff Lebowski has become complete. The Dude Abides!

Got to see the Member Preview of “Paul McCartney Photographs 1963-64 at @famsf.bsky.social today. Some thoughts: 1. I knew they were young but damn they were young. 2. 73 Million people watched them live on Ed Sullivan. No YouTube. Wow. 3. There was a time when not every photo was crispy sharp.

Bob’s Burgers - “Ain’t Miss Debatin’” - Season 7 Episode 15 (March 26, 2017) Louise: Can anyone here do a Russian accent? Gene voiced by Eugene Boris Mirman, born Moscow, Russia 1974, is the only character who doesn’t raise their hand. Makes me laugh every time.

I’m severely myopic with a pretty good astigmatism. I had my glasses off with the TV on in the background. It was a game from @fter midnight. With the sound off I happened to look up and immediately recognized the event they were talking about. Talk about iconic.
