This site did a lot for me. Professionally, personally, all around. I gave it a truly sad amount of my time, but I got a lot back. Then apartheid spaceman blew it all up. If you and I talked here, I hope we'll talk again.

Every twitter version of This is Just to Say (the icebox plums poem) was good. Every one. There was never ever a bad one.

@ShannonSkalos I've liked https://t.co/zuzQBiD4iU but I don't know if they've reopened applications. They closed during the last rush to keep from getting overwhelmed. Good luck to us all.

Good night Twitter. Good work. Sleep well. He'll most likely kill you in the morning.

I wrote up this preview of the Wild and Scenic Film Festival. If you're near Corvallis, OR tomorrow night, drop by the Whiteside and have a watch. If not, other cities have their own version, or you can watch online. Proceeds go to our local environmental center:

@txvoodoo That money could house people. I'm all for enjoying things and liking what you like, but one night's entertainment shouldn't cost the same as several years' rent.
