Face pressed against the glass of Twitter asking why I was so shorted the Funny, Smart genes? The folks I follow are Gods to me. Stunted from shyness.

@harrisonfinberg Only slight shades of difference here in Logan Square, but, still, when good things happen you wanna applaud - whomever. So, overnight, an enhancement where everyone benefits. Arch Street, as is crosses 22nd. Narrowed in ways to protect everybody.

Always immensely moved by this ceremony. Guns, with malicious intent, are everywhere.

Congratulations to Police Academy Classes 418 and 419 on your graduation this morning. We are proud to welcome you to the @PhillyPolice family. Your commitment to service begins today. Stay safe, stay humble, and serve this city with pride! #HonorIntegrityService

On the walk to work, passed by 4 8th Ward polling stations. Rabb team demonstrably better organized, more present: Consistent messaging, same uni, firm approach out of a clear belief, conviction. Nothing remotely close from teams Street or Stanford.

[Terry Gillen @Terry_Gillen]

Great job by the Rabb campaign and a serious setback for the Philly Dem machine.

@RTRSPodcast A COMPLETE scrapping. Yes, the NBA is not like other leagues (Caps, contract structure, etc.), but a wholesale departure, starting anew.  Embid? Gone. Nurse? Gone.  George? Gone ... Retain Maxey; build on the very-young Edgecomb. Otherwise, nothing to work with.  Dreadful loss!

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@RTRSPodcast @DrinkSurfside With all three of the Sixers’ wins, there was something about each, the circumstances around each, that each felt like a shock. Last night, Thursday, no less so, and maybe even the most.

@_piccone @CrossingBroad I understand that the unrepentant Homer in me is speaking here, someone who cannot pretend to know anything about the radio game callers for any of the gazillion other sports out there, but Tom McGinnis is the utter top of the heap to these ears. A civic treasure.

@FloTrack Happened right in front of me, watching the race closely, and still don’t understand it. Phantom contact. Host Penn looked fully a contender to that point.

@dlondonwortel Obsession shared.  It's off to the left of the Henry Hudson Bridge (heading north), first clear view of the Palisades. You can see how this one structure - now at the center of several related structures - opened that vista up to more development. Spuyten-Duyvil. It's a stunner!

Do you think we have reached a point where indoor plants can safely be put outside? Rubber Tree plants, palms, for instance.

29 years ago right now (midnight on March 31), the 1997 "April Fool's Day" storm was spreading a mild rain into the region, but by late afternoon, some areas were observing near-blizzard conditions, with heavy snow and wind gusts over 50 mph in some places. Snowfall varied widely

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@The_Banned_Vids Regardless of the technique they applied, I would imagine this is a very valuable asset to come upon and capture like this, something akin to the Hunt for Red October.

@CookPolitical @DPearsonPHL @MattKleinOnline Moderate observers who caught her making the rounds at the Pennsylvania Society dinner said ‘she seems reasonable,’ but then video emerged of her speaking lustily at Stop the Steal rallies and momentum evaporated. Will she even make it to the General? ‘Chem Trails’ terrain.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@rebekahallen @daveweigel @kaylaguo_ Fantastic read. Thank you for sharing this.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@SEPTA_SOCIAL Do you folks give out spot awards - maybe Driver of the Week, or Driver of the Route?�� If so, please commend this driver for her over-and-above effort on behalf of myself and another rider.  Route 7, Bus 3560, yesterday at around 2:30.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@PatrickDCleary Magnificent use of visualization. Take a bow. Also, a little bit interesting that many of these long ones all seem to clock in near to each other in terms of both time and distance.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@JackPhillyRE Is there room here to say that way back in the day - WAY back - I had some of the more distinctive Italian meals I’ve ever had at that shack of a restaurant? To this day, can still taste this squid/sauce/pasta concoction. My taste buds came of age there. I like this proposal.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@harrisonfinberg You've unleashed the Whirlwind here, w/ well-learned/earned lessons on both sides. I walk past the Greenfield flow en route to work, and it's consistently Next Level in terms of parent/student engagement. Trade-offs are huge, of course, but I'm always impressed by the energy.

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

@BeshearStan The provocativeness of this is just outstanding. Excellent work. Shades of the contortions that went in to the Pat Meehan district. Stir it up!

[Ed Dougherty @ejdinPhilly]

Years back, Ed Bradley (60 Minutes) scored a rare Dylan interview and began by reading these lyrics, asking ‘Where did this come from?’ ‘I can’t tell you,' Dylan replied,' but I know I couldn’t do that now.’ 24-years-old here. Didn’t win the Nobel for Literature for nothing ...

@DiBiaseLOE You should be proud here.
