I love @Delta as much as the next person, but calling this the ‘fix’ for a broken window shade—after I spent two hours getting slow-roasted by the sun on an $831.96 flight—feels like character building I did not sign up for.
@CallaghanPeter Thank you for all your contributions to this great state, Peter. I’ve enjoyed your work and getting to know you. Best of luck on your next adventure!
Congrats to the #mncities, residents and broadband partners benefitting from the 24 broadband expansion projects funded by @mndeed. Over $50M in grants will help continue to move the needle for universal broadband coverage in cities across MN. #lmcleg
