This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

Spent much of the day sorting through my late mother-in-law's sewing and craft supplies. I found 23 pairs of scissors.

Big food banks get attention and resources but small, community-based food banks also do important work filling gaps in the safety net. Let’s boost nine of them, from the city to the suburbs to rural Colorado. I’ll match the next fifty $5 donations: www.coloradogives.org/story/arapah...

As we gear up to watch the WKRP turkey drop....

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

In honor of Larry Summers, I asked the female members of my college class (1987) to say if they had any experiences with sexual harassment by teachers/professors, back when this was tolerated as, I dunno, the cost of attending college, and OH MY GOD.

Today I went to a workshop on Sashiko visible mending and it was so fun. I tried some simple free-form stitching on the hole in these jeans. More to do, but I'm kind of getting the hang of it.
