I prefer @Delta when flying. I like @united as well, but Delta is my jam. So not getting a Diet Coke and a mini bag of sun chips on a one-hour flight? Not really an issue and can't understand why it's such a big deal. Gladly take the Free WiFi on my SFO<==>JFK routes instead.

@rightladsssss_ That’s a great approach. I almost wish they would re-title it so it would be like “Archie Bunker‘s Place” after “All in the Family” or “Frasier” after “Cheers”.

I'm excited for the new season of Ted Lasso, but Season 3 ended so perfectly & the lack of Jamie Tartt in S4 has me feeling like it just won't be the same. His 3-season arc was one of the best redemption stories ever told and Phil Dunster played him perfectly at every stage.

Got the Moby album "18" in my head yesterday and decided to make it my soundtrack to kick off my day. Wow, I forgot how much I love it. Almost 25 years old and so strong. Great follow up to "Play", which I also love.

Love that the NBA might expand to Seattle. The Sonics were stolen 20 yrs ago. Howard Schultz could have found a local buyer & didn't. When he said he was leaving Seattle after the state tax, all I could think was "you're still there?"

Some people deserve Seattle. He's not one.

Rob Reiner had the most amazing career. Even before "All In The Family", he was on the Odd Couple. And the movies. I quote from Few Good Men, Princess Bride, Harry Met Sally, & Spinal Tap all the time. Just saw the Tap sequel 3 days ago & loved it. Heartbroken.

First thing that excited me about my wife when we first met was that she had an engineering degree from Stanford.

So, maybe not "no man ever"--though I hope I didn't refer to her as "chick". I wasn't the Fonz.

Amazing live album from REM that finally gets its due on a list. Great setlist, minimal hits, mix of old/new across 25+ yrs of greatness--all from a band with the humility to exit their comfort zone.

Perfect gift for REM nuts just before they split.

Finally watching the Soundgarden induction into the R&R Hall of Fame. Alternating chills and tears--especially when his daughter sang "Fell On Black Days".

Unbelievable band led by an unparalled genius that left us way too soon.

Hate these articles.

"instead of chasing Ivy League candidates, employers will be on the hunt for AI-savvy talent with adaptability to keep up..."

And where will they look?

Could've said this in 2000 about the net. My Cornell & Wharton mates are fine.

Happy 70th to Bill Gates, the guy I idolized in b-school, reported up to at MSFT (many levels), & found inspiration for all I do philanthropically. Yes, he has a mixed legacy, but in a world of hated billionaires, he put a PC in every home AND help eradicate malaria. Amazing.

So proud of Robyn!

"The Natural" will always be one of my favorite movies. It captures the romance of baseball perfectly and Robert Redford played Roy Hobbs perfectly. I've probably watched it 30 times and I'm sure I'll watch it many more. Grateful for that amazing performance.

[Sandy Khaund @sandykh]

This is awful. Sorber is a great kid, but battled durability issues during his year at GTown & I was hoping he'd stay another yr to build up, but the 1st round called & I was excited to see him develop. He's young, so hoping he can bounce back quickly.

Not saying he’s completely wrong. By his definition, I’m not far off from being a “trad dad”.

Just saying, I refuse to take parenting advice from anybody who’s never had a kid.

[Modern Dad @ModernxDad]

This is why we need more traditional Dad ✅

Insult to injury--when my kid posted on a message board to find tips on learning more about lost packages, the other users mocked us for being stupid enough to trust @UPS . Live and learn, I guess.

[Sandy Khaund @sandykh]

You can tell a lot about a company by how they act when they mess up. @UPS lost our pkg with essential & sentimental items. No explanation, no apology. We had to badger them just to find out "contents were discarded". Wait, what? What did you "discard" & why?

UPS= U People Suck

[Sandy Khaund @sandykh]

Wow @UPS, great idea! What you didn't say is that the package might not arrive, my child's clothes + sentimental items are lost, & no one is able to provide clarity.

Great way to start the semester! Glad I could "count on UPS". You're unstoppable! Thanks for ruining the move-in.

[Sandy Khaund @sandykh]

If you spent your teens in the 80s like I did, the loss of Malcolm Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne, and Hulk Hogan is a legit guy punch. That is a pop culture trio that encapsulated a lot of my childhood. RIP to all.

30 years ago today. And for me, life has never been the same musically…
