I agree with you! I would if I could.

I’m not Gov Ferguson but I’m with you, it’s outrageous

I’ll tell you who should get the Nobel Peace Prize: it’s the person who invented the “undo send” button.

This is awesome: a "WKRP in Cincinnati" fan created a three-hour Johnny Fever radio block, by using clips from the TV show and dropping in the full songs on his intros and outros, plus commercials and Les Nessman news breaks.

Dude is my hero.

I love all of these amazing stories about, and expressions of love for, Clem Burke. I wish we as a society could get comfortable about giving folks the same kind of love and props while they are alive to hear it all.

If you ask a friend the question “Can I kick it?” And they don’t answer with the exact three words “Yes you can”, are they even your friends? #atcq

Aww man, such sad news. What an original, what an icon. I’ve lost track of how many times I’d seen David Jo over the years…solo, as Buster, The Dolls, every show was so good. And will never forget a fun little chat that he ended with, “Ok, be good…or be bad, I don’t care.” RIP, #davidjohansen

The first thing I see when I walk into my office every morning is this photo of #TheClash from 1979 in Boston, taken by #BobGruen. It’s a reminder to stay anti-fear, pro-inclusion, and to be the loudest voice in the room when standing up for what is right. Happy #InternationalClashDay, y’all!

Please join me in taking this action. It's SO easy to do.
