The only time I successfully quit smoking for 8 months, I spent 10 days in the ICU after a massive seizure and then biked for six months because I wasn’t allowed to drive.

I booked Twin Peaks in Indy at the Murphy Building in 2016 when they toured behind 'Down in Heaven.' It was a great set. After the show, I remember the cops got called when they set off fireworks in the parking lot. Cocaine may have been involved.
Chicago rockers Twin Peaks announced two reunion shows this week, and today they added two more
Twin Peaks Add 10th Anniversary Shows

Now, the air traffic controllers can get a paycheck. They just won't be able to afford health insurance.
There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

It always makes me laugh to see the reflection of a ring light during a leader's Teams call. Is that how I reach the next level? Should I care more about how I present on Teams?

The rumors are true. Ike's new record is great. It's been fun hearing his music evolve over the years. Ike was the first musician I ever interviewed after hanging out with him on Turntable.fm years ago. In addition to his smart writing, I'll always appreciate his generosity. <33 Go listen.
