Friends, coworkers, family: I am now on hiatus, more or less, from the social network formally known as Twitter. Hopefully, if/when the owner sells it, it’ll land in a better place and will return.
In the meantime, you can find me as WestPhillyMatt at Blue Sky. Keep the faith!

Yesterday, I had the honor of attending the Celebration of Life for Willie Mays at Oracle Park. It was a touching tribute to one of the greatest baseball players of all time. Sharing moments with Mayor Willie Brown, Barry Bonds, Spike Lee, and hearing kind words from President Clinton reminded us all of Willie’s extraordinary legacy.
A forever Giant.
His impact on and off the field will forever be remembered. Rest in peace, Say Hey Kid.
