Recovering ex-journalist in Pittsburgh. Jam bands, craft beer, chili dogs and college football. Disappointingly shallow. Do you have any pickles?

2025 Carnegie Mellon University Homecoming Plunge {{MetaTags.description}}

I'm not sure what it is about me and jumping into uncomfortably chilly water, but I'm doing it again, this time to raise money for Special Olympics PA. Got a few bucks to chip in? I'd be grateful.

I think I’d rather see @nauerbach.com in the Senate. Is that an option?

Listening to ACC officials discuss replays with the conference control room is one of the best things to happen to #collegefootball in a long time. Pay attention, other conferences.

@trailion.bsky.social My assessment of UVA may have been incorrect.

14 all, 5 mins left in the first half. UVA converted two FSU turnovers to touchdowns, but I’m not sure they can hang on.

There are many, many college football questions (how to smoke a pork shoulder is not among them). This week, as conference play really gets going, we may start getting some answers. #CnCShow @carlaswankfox.bsky.social @ajkuftic.xyz podcasts.apple.com/us/po…

My second order of cheese curds this week, and THESE β€” at The Old Fashioned β€” are the leaders coming around the turn. Breading is light but still favorable and the curds have a little pop. Sofa king good. Had an excellent brat, too.

The @pghguild.com workers of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have officially been on strike for 1,000 days (!) today. That’s almost THREE YEARS of trying to force their employers to play fair. Show them a little love if you can: www.unionprogress.com/donate/

It is OUTRAGEOUS that my friends and former colleagues in the @pghguild.com have been fighting simply for fairness in the workplace for 1,000 days. They get by with financial help from supporters. Can you spare a few bucks to help?
