I am currently consulting and try to physically show up in the office a few days a week. The office is currently into some sort of 1970s streaming soft rock station and I would like to announce this is my last day on Earth

My father wore a beat to death Red Sox cap everywhere. He always removed it and put it over his heart for the National Anthem, funeral processions, ect. It’s what the hat represents.

I was going to take it apart completely and pitch the reassembly as a WBUR podcast. Like, figuring out what’s wrong with a washer, figuring out an issue. Have guests stop by, like Moulton vs Markey. Who really understands household issues? β€œTinkering” Next, on WBUR.

Cuz the repair guy told me what was wrong with it and what part I need. A pump is 50 bucks and I got a drill.

If I can replace the heating element on my electric oven, surely I can replace the pump on a top-loading washer, right?

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

I explained to them how, in the before time, teenagers would be sent home from high school and POLICE CALLED for flashing gang signs at my high school. We were also not allowed to wear β€˜rock t shirts.’

The Gen Zers in the office like to throw gang signs at each other. They are surprised I can interpret them and name the gangs they belong to. Once a street reporter, always a street reporter. This is East Coast, I said. One does not throw West Coast gang signs at each other here.
