I'm keeping this to remind myself that there are no unicorns! Especially since I feel like the rhino at times http://t.co/QDK4DOwszZ

This is very cool. Opera is a fantastic art form that so many people would love if they went one time.
Live music.
Live singing.
Lots of romance and drama and tragedy.
So enjoyable!!
(Not sure if it's true (haven't fact checked). But love the idea)
Never been to the opera before?
Now’s your chance. We’re giving away 70,000 free tickets to the @MetOpera at the iconic Lincoln Center. Go to on.nyc.gov/opera to enter the lottery. There’s not a bad seat in the house.

The idea that "water has to be earned" when working out in summer heat in Arizona (or Tennessee or other southern states for that matter) is asinine.
The players aren't performing better by being punished to dehydration and over exertion.
It's archaic bully behavior.

Tragic news. A bear attacked the father of Penguins forward Andrei Kuzmenko while fishing in Tuva. He passed away in the hospital.
Deepest condolences to Andrei and his family.

Whoa. My colleague Mark Messier on the Oilers hiring Mike Babcock as head coach, during the ESPN NHL Opening Night media call today.

Yep. In the USA right now, it might be a "cost of living adjustment" but that being generous if it's 2%....
It may or may not be the merit increase I'm getting this year 🤷♀️ #subtleshade #maybenotsubtle

The primary White House TV pool is made up of 5 networks: CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, and FOX. We take turns covering POTUS for pooled events and trips, and then share footage with the other 4 plus other outlets.
Today there is no tv pool, so Trump won’t have a crew with him at UNGA.

I recently watched the famous lecture by the late MIT professor Patrick Winston, titled ‘How to Speak.’
He opens by saying: “Your success in life will be determined largely by your ability to speak, your ability to write, and the quality of your ideas, in that order.”
Freaking brilliant.
