  1. @karlandroes Thanks, Karl! Always glad to read interesting articles, all the more so when my favorite U is prominently featured. #GoBlue
  2. Great gift for new grads: can't-put-it-down novel about smart, funny characters navigating work, life & love. bit.ly/39NtgY
  3. @goonerjamie Good question. Mirage opened in 1989, ushering in mega-hotel age. 1990 prob good cut-off year for most recent old v. new revamp
  4. @goonerjamie Effect. :) I wonder if 2020 will really be that different from 1990. 2012 certainly isn't, at least not for adults in both.
  5. @goonerjamie I know what you mean, though. So many things about the 40s, 50s & 60s seem unimaginable today. Perspective, I guess.
  6. If Reno, NV is perfectly situated to see the solar ring of fire, how could Las Vegas, NV be far off? I'll be looking: bit.ly/LQZFtW
  7. @goonerjamie Thanks for the RT! Pix look like an old movie, don't they? Huge contrast with Vegas of today.
  8. Vegas: "always one more ace up its sleeve." Fun vintage photos: ti.me/KqmILS Kind of wish we still wore fancy clothes to gamble.
  9. @Angpang Always nice to be freed from restraints on creativity. :)
  10. @PerryBlock Sorry for the radio silence, Perry. I've been traveling. Will read Orwellian retellian' (love that!) ASAP.
  11. Please take note, Chicago buddies. Great opportunity to support great NPO doing amazing literacy work: bit.ly/JBWAOA @readinginmotion
  12. @tjn_tweets Thank you!
  13. Despite my age now being represented by a number I consider little short of ancient & wholly unrelated to me, I had a great b-day yesterday.
  14. He's back & ruefully hilarious, as usual. RT @goonerjamie: In which my child gets scanned through the self service till tinyurl.com/bsr4ve7
  15. @AuthorAlchemy Alternatively, Stephen King's rule: "Any word you have to hunt for in a thesaurus is the wrong word. No exceptions." :)
  16. "I know two things with absolute clarity: trust is worth the risk and passion is worth everything." #AMergerofEquals bit.ly/39NtgY
  17. Worthy cause founded by truly lovely person. Please join me in supporting EMPOWHER INSTITUTE: bit.ly/HLqb7W Even $10 makes a diff.
  18. Good stuff. Kurt Vonnegut on how to write a great short story (w/ links to other writers' "commandments" too): bit.ly/IK1rqb
  19. And I love hearing this from readers. Thanks, Karl! RT @karlandroes: I loved "A Merger of Equals"! bit.ly/39NtgY
  20. Is it a romance set in the biz world or a biz book wrapped in a great story? Find out now: amzn.to/fMAYPD #AMergerofEquals
