I knew a kid in grade school who wore a metal brace because polio atrophied his leg. If you're 10 years younger than I am (and I hope you are), you probably never went to school with a kid who suffered from polio because, ya know, vaccinations.

If you’re going to the @Cubs game, take a pic of my wife’s birthday wishes to me on the scoreboard. She bought it months ago before I got really sick.

When the @Cubs won the World Series, I did not celebrate with champagne or beer or whiskey. I felt a rare sort of joy. Like I was 9 again. So I made myself a root beer float.

The Kinks were in town. I'm guessing 1985. Our friends at Jam Productions called over to @93XRT . "The Kinks wanna play soccer. Do any of the airstaff or sales dept. know how to play soccer?" "Yes. Yes we do." That was a lie. A humiliating evening that yielded one great photo.
