Early in my judicial career, a young woman appeared before me who owed some fines. She told me she had just gotten a job at “Crackle Barrel” and asked me to give her more time. Six months later, she returned and proudly told me she had just gotten promoted at “Crackle Barrel.”

Do you think Chester Gould wore a three piece suit everyday to draw Dick Tracy? I'd like to think so.

At a previous job there was already a Nick on the team, so he was Nick 0 and I was Nick 1. Could have used initials but numbers, starting at 0, were more fun.

We hired a new VP named Michael Lee. Unfortunately we already have a Michael Lee. He works in the warehouse. He's been here 11 years. New VP gets: michael.lee2@company.com He immediately messages IT. “Can you move the other Michael to michael.lee2 and give me michael.lee?” No. He asks HR. HR asks me if we can “prioritize seniority.” I explain that the warehouse Michael has eleven years of email history tied to that address and changing it because someone with a nicer title arrived would be insane. VP reluctantly keeps the 2. Warehouse Michael finds out. Changes his Teams display name to: Michael Lee (Original) By Friday the VP is being referred to as Sequel Mike. He has asked IT to intervene. Unfortunately nickname management is outside our support scope.

It's in an industrial area, what are reasonable arguments against putting a data center in a location like this?

Saw this picture of Riverfront earlier. When I think of Riverfront, I think of my grandpa. And stepping on the squishy stuff. And sitting in the red seats, wishing we could sit in the blue. The Jumbotron. And miniature bats that they gave away. And...

listening to the post game report on the way home where Marty and Joe would tell us about the game we just watched. And Eric Davis and Barry Larkin and 1990. It was basically the same as the other cookie cutter stadiums, Three Rivers, Veterans, RFK, etc, only better, much better.

View of the Royal Palace at Naples, painted by Gaspar van Wittel in 1706. Why do you think he included a dog sniffing another's hind end?

I let the neighbor's dog out earlier this week and saw this again. Sent a text to the neighbor group and I've come to the conclusion that no one appreciates a Tone Loc (Funky Cold Medina) reference these days.

Every time I go to the neighbor's house I see this. What does it mean? - Lines of code? - Library of Congress? - My threads are fresh, and I'm lookin' def, yo, what's up with LOC?

I was looking at a floorplan and asked Claude if it could make it so the kitchen sink looked out a window. It extended the island to the wall. Good job Claude, good effort.

Saw a headline earlier about Elly De La Cruz being day to day. "Day to day" often makes me think of Vin Scully. "Andre Dawson has a bruised knee and is listed as day-to-day (pause). Aren't we all?"

I enjoyed Coyote vs Acme. Give Wile E. Coyote the Oscar now. Peter Lorre, dehydrated boulders, The Barber of Seville as background music, etc, lots of nostalgic references, I'm glad it was released.

Saw an article about sturgeon and it made me think of the bit from Brian Doyle talking about Herman, the sturgeon at the Bonneville Fish Hatchery in Oregon.
The boy, wearing a red cowboy hat, seemed to be about three years old. The father tried to line the boy up for a photograph, tried to get the kid to stand still until Herman loomed into view, but the boy skittered here and there like a rabbit, the father alternately wheedling and barking at him, and finally the boy stood still, but facing the wrong direction, with his nose pressed against the glass, and the father sighed and brought his camera down to his waist at exactly the moment that Herman slowly filled the window like a zeppelin. The boy leaped away from the window and his hat fell off. No one said a word. Herman kept sliding past for a long time. Finally, his tail exited stage left and the boy said, awed, clear as a bell, Holy shit, Dad.
