I was supposed to work from home today but couldn't connect. Had to go in for help. On the way home to battle the ISP and VPN gods, I heard #thevelvetunderground. At home and connected - my life was saved by #RockAndRoll! #FirstWorldProblems Thanks @LinBrehmer @93XRT

I'm sorry #Netflix, I will not be #anusweing any of your questions, I don't care what the offer...

[Tom Cramer @70sKidCramer]

All I want on #BlackFriday is for @tcelectronic to bundle the Mojo Mojo and Dark Matter pedals together for like $80 shipped. Maybe a @SweetwaterSound exclusive? #gearacquisitionsyndrome #guitarplayer

Headline on the evening news: "Boy's foot struck by train."
What?
Either trains have become self-aware evil invisible ninjas or the whole "It's not my child's fault" thing has gone *way* too far... #getoffmylawn

Apparently the perfect time for Zuul, the Gatekeeper of Gozer to take up residence in my freezer...

@bldavis42 Isn't necessary. I can tell.

Sun's out, and I can feel warmth on my pasty skin.
Rolling smoke on the Weber kettle, 1st time all year.
Baseball game started on time, no threat of cancellation. Finally!
Hope it doesn't snow this week...

Here we go.
It was just a matter of time.
Please, don't use war as political deflection.
This is not about you.

For the vast majority of my 50+ trips around the sun, I've lived in the #Chicagoland area. And one of the best perks has been @WGNTV. Cheers on 70 years!

Eating the last of the winter #Chili, and waiting for #spring to plant its feet firmly in the batter's box.
I'm ready.

As a recalcitrant and hated member of a townhouse association, I must say that returning from the pub to find 3 angry board members standing in your driveway is a bit unnerving.

@MaryLDixon All of this. It will always be Comi(n)skey Park, Soldier(s) Field, (the) Jewel(s) and on and on. It's who we are.
Good topic for discussion in the @thefrunchroom

Wait - #Who'sBenBradley?

I don't think the tease on the evening news needed the word "Rare" in front of #SuperBlueBloodMoon

[Tom Cramer @70sKidCramer]

@TEOTFW So good. Cheers!

Ya know, #context is important.
Question:
"What are some affordable, practical Christmas gifts you'd like?"
Answer:
"Batteries, cables and picks."
*If* they know you're a #guitarplayer
that answer makes sense. Otherwise, cue horror movie music...

[Tom Cramer @70sKidCramer]

Love that Family Classics is back on #ChristmasEve. I think @DeanRichards will do a fine job. Just wish it was the 1938 version of A Christmas Carol - Reginald Owen is my favorite #Scrooge. Either way, cheers and Merry Christmas @WGNTV #Chicago #ChildhoodMemories

[Tom Cramer @70sKidCramer]

Birth. School. Work. Death.
(anyone remember that song by the Godfathers?)

This would be nice as well. #FoundOnReverb
