Okay, you’re obviously the more connected to the youths of the two of us. πŸ˜‚

Hey, if they can reuse all the old 2004 stuff, I can listen to my old CDs and post lyrics as AIM away messages.

I approve this analysis.

I’d like him to do this here in New England. Stand up and loudly proclaim in the Cranston Dunkin’ that the coffee is bad, sucks, shouldn’t be sold, whatever he wants. I dare him to disparage Dunkin’ in New England.

We held the Nuremberg Trials where they were because of Nuremberg’s symbolic importance to the Nazis as a site of their rallies. Will ours be held in Palm Beach?

I have said this before, but eliminating programs that teach a lot of students but don’t have many majors is like a restaurant not buying flour in its grocery delivery because people aren’t ordering flour on the menu.

Wouldn’t have been necessary except the First Lady’s descended from pirates.

Nothing has illustrated to me the problems in higher education than comparing the hand-wringing about what Mnookin *might* do with AI at Columbia with the dead silence over what she *did* look to do with AI at Wisconsin, one of the crown jewels of American public education.

Trump notes his crowd is more enthused about bigotry than they are for tax cuts: "It's amazing how strongly people feel about that. I talk about cutting taxes, people go like that, I talk about transgender everybody goes crazy. Five years ago you didn't know what the hell it was"

George Wallace in 1962: "I started off talking about schools and highways and prisons and taxes and I couldn't make them listen. Then I began talking about n**rs and they stomped the floor."

So, we reached the Civil War today in class and that has made me wonder about @joanecashin.bsky.social β€˜s mention of Quakers in the Civil War at my defense. I brought up Pen Hallowell today, was he still a Friend while serving alongside Shaw, @civilwarmemory.bsky.social?

Robert Duvall’s last film role was in the Netflix adaptation of The Pale Blue Eye. Book and movie were both excellent. #HATM

Interesting. I would have thought Hoover the Quaker would have embraced the humanitarianism inherent in that emancipation. I guess Hoover the conservative won out.

Oh my goodness! This series is AMAZING. A former student of mine wrote a senior thesis that was a first draft historical fiction on Civil War spying.

This is amazing and I need to do it. I have used fictional characters occasionally, but I love having a pool to draw on!!!

I want to be clear: I really like the movie Sideways. But what that movie did to Merlot… I may never get over.

I’m out of cumin and paprika again. At least Penzey’s delivers so I don’t need to support the East India Company.

The U.S. has successfully convinced its people that β€œthe humanities are frivolous and STEM is Important and Real” is basically a law of nature: this is absolute nonsense that we should stop putting up with.

I had purchased the opening guitar riff to Gimmie Shelter for my Razr. I miss it everyday.
