It’s 1993.

Talk radio psychologists and the city of Seattle are all the rage.

Hollywood releases Sleepless in Seattle and Fraiser debuts.

What a time to be David Hyde Pierce.

Elementary school fair day.

There was a dunking booth.

Guy running it let me go up and push the target.

As I turned away from the splash a piece of loose metal in the cage ripped a hole in my hand beneath my thumb. Still have the scar.

After 11 years of covering the sport, and five years of writing for Frontstretch . Com, my time professionally writing about #NASCAR has -- barring something unforeseen -- come to an end.

But I'm going out on my own terms.

Here's my final column.

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”

In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

It’s 2025 and somehow people don’t realize that being critically derided has almost no impact on the how long something lasts.

Example: the Transformers movies.
