12.11.18 10:21 DEAD MOUSE UPDATE: As I throw carcass #3 into my trash can, I make that yearly wish that it would snow enough to cover up whichever entrance to my house all these mice clearly know about but I don't. Three mice in four days might be a new record pace for me...

What a hairy, hairy man
(10 years ago)
11.11.18 00:55 DEAD MOUSE UPDATE: Mouse #2 actually flipped the trap and landed on its back with its little feet in the air - so precious

Is it still a tease when everything about said tease seems to scream out "avoid at all costs?"
10.11.18 19:53 Ha! I'll never not love and share this HoJoPhoTo :D

I mean it...last time this season I do this. Honest. (Probably.)
9.11.18 21:02 My original draft of this status in my head was something like "I'm not sure where 'buying your groceries at Menards' is on the 'generally giving up on life' scale, but that's the level I'm at on this Friday night" - but that was BEFORE I spent five minutes of my life, the cashier's life AND a supervisor's life getting them to correct a ten cent overcharge on my gallon of milk, so now....I'm just not sure. But definitely I NEEDED THAT DIME!

OH MY GOD I WON SOMETHING

This may be the only time I'm ahead all night...or all week
8.11.18 19:48 DEAD MOUSE UPDATE: Killed my first mouse of the season. (I THOUGHT I heard something down there eariler)

Video - The funny thing was, even after we snuck out of Transmission for an Impossibleburger, Iron Door was ALSO bringing the Talking Heads...albeit more interesting Talking Heads (YouTube: Talking Heads - Stay Up Late)

90.3FM or KFAI dot org!
1.11.18 13:44 I've been drafted to guest host "Across the Board" again! It will air on KFAI tonight from 2 to 6am - with a way shorter prep time, I wouldn't mind taking some requests from you RIGHT NOW to help me out later...
1.11.18 05:08 Tonight I learned that without facial hair, wearing contacts, and managing to stuff all my hair hair under a beanie, NOBODY can recognise me. ...which, to be fair, a lotta folks have trouble recognising me the other way, too
31.10.18 13:33 
Quick reminder that you only have a few more days to stream my guest shots on KFAI's Across the Board (4 hrs!) and True Brit (2 hrs!) before they disappear into the mist! Let me know if you need the links!

Hey hey this Halloween episode of Cruise Control is pretty good!

You wouldn't know it but my outfit belies my constant silent prayer of "Please do not make me have to socially interact...please do not make me have to socially interact." (I do always make exceptions for Hares.)

I know people have very strong feeling about the mere existence of this condiment...but people. IT WAS ON SALE
26.10.18 00:24 
Why d'you think they call it The Red Room? (Also, why do I take all my selfies in near or total darkness?) (We know the answer to THAT one!)

I know, Facebook, I know
23.10.18 19:03 I love having the dumb luck to stumble upon events like this! Check out the "Goethe in the Skyways" pop-up gallery if you get the chance!

Rest in peace, massive detergent box. Mark shrewdly asked the Sears guy to throw it in to seal a deal on a new HE washer and dryer, the story went, and I've been very slowly using it up since 2014...up until this final scoop. (I sprung for some fancy name brand liquid stuff for the next load.)
23.10.18 09:53 Just think....this time tomorrow I'll be a milllllllllionaire

Guys, it's becoming less of a well-kept secret that I'm rather adequate at presenting radio. Here's my third solo stint at KFAI, available via the archive for a fortnight (that's what we true Brits call a 14-day period): http://uno.kfai.org/TrueBrit/TrueBrit_2018-10-20.mp3
19.10.18 23:33 
Thirty minute warning! I'm on KFAI LIVE hosting True Brit! Radio from midnight to 2am CDT, 90.3 FM on your radio OR kfai dot org for the live stream!
19.10.18 06:46 
Dudes I enjoy presenting radio, here is about four hours of radio I presented: http://uno.kfai.org/AcrossTheBoard/AcrossTheBoard_2018-10-19.mp3

I still don't have a job BUT I do have another radio gig to announce - this Friday night/Saturday morning I'll be filling in and guest hosting True Brit! Radio on KFAI - 90.3 FM Minneapolis - 106.7 FM St. Paul! Tune in right at midnight-- you know what, tune in at 10 and hear some WAY BETTER radio (Crap From The Past), and then stick around for two hours of British content curated by m'self. 90.3 FM or streamed live/archived at kfai.org!

My nosebleed (yet kinda straight shot and on the aisle) seat 215/4/1 ended up in a section that was tarped off...so I was upgraded to 104/12/13. Not too shabby for a "$20 all in" deal. Hopefully nobody obnoxious nearby...50/50 chance given a preponderance of senior citizens in tonight's crowd...but here's the ol' before and after
14.10.18 12:48 This says several things about me: at one point during a dream last night, I heard the beginning of "Smooth" and said to my dream companions "hang on...I have to Shazam this for Adri"
