@Fender Nobody likes litigious bullies. Fender is off my shopping list.

Got myself a fancy new Warwick 5-string bass. Poplar burl top, mother of pearl yin/yang fretboard inlays brass frets; it’s a monster and it plays great! #sweetwater #newgearday

@ConanOBrien Don’t worry. Caps Lick was my favorite joke.

Maybe I should worry.

@mark_giangreco @MikeBales Can anyone name another Carl Douglas song?

@joeynolfi Network newscasts are fed at both 6:30 and 7 ET; and it’s routine to fix an error if one is made on the second feed. I worked 48 years at network O&Os and saw that frequently.

@Wisdom_HQ My dad worked with a fellow named Warner.

@AskPolymarket @Polymarket Then how come this:

Happy 100th birthday , Johnny Carson!

Photo from the night I guest hosted.

Nah, it’s from tonight at the newly reopening Museum of Broadcast Communications! Come here and see the sights!

The new home is at 440 W. Randolph. Chicago.

@BuzzPatterson No. He. Isn't.

He's getting his rich sycophants to pay for it; they'll expect favorable treatment from the government in return.

An open letter to Bob Iger.@jimmykimmel

[Michael Eisner @Michael_Eisner]

Where has all the leadership gone?  If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment?  The “suspending indefinitely” of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation.  Maybe the Constitution should have said, “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one’s political or financial self-interest.” By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

[David Fell @DavidFell]

I just canceled Disney+.

Disney caved in and pulled Kimmel off the air hours after the MAGA FCC Chairman attacked him.

@KidRock So it’s okay when you Trump fools issue made-up bullshit, but not the other side? And you were stupid enough to fall for it? 🤣😂

You hypocrite.

You and the fascist deserve each other.

@LastWeekTonight What? A viola you can actually play? Your musician viewers want to see this!

@ChicagoMusicEx
Hmmm. What can I add to my cart that costs exactly $34.010000000000005?

@mark_giangreco @lippyent Yup. I got to watch him anchor in person when the CBS Evening News was in Chicago for a week in 1980.

@RosebudSteak Did you know: on the Door Dash app, the photo alongside “Corn off the cob” has no corn in it?

Cheers!
