@taracopp.bsky.social - great to hear you on @npr.org
#1A - sad to hear the topic you’re talking about. Hard to believe what’s happening.

Today, on #MemorialDay at 3PM (1500), I will be going silent for my Son in Law - Sgt. Michael Martins, #USMC - 3/4 H&S Company S-2 - lost 11/06/09 #RIP

I will be in #WashingtonDC to visit Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day weekend. This is my 15th year visiting grave sites for friends and acquaintances that can’t make it to ANC.

Do you have a friend or loved one you’d like me to visit? DM me and we can work out the details.

After another day of worry about whether my international customers were going to keep sending me business, I unwind to ASMR of 2x visuals and sounds of #SBMowing. 😵‍💫

Area businesses, residents react to Trump tariffs

“Keith Humphrey, owner of Jet AirWerks, emphasized the uncertainty. The #tariffs are not being passed by Congress, he said, so they can be changed or eliminated based on the whim of one person.”

Gold Star Spouses Day brings back a lot of grief memories as well as the hope we had/have for better days.

Trump’s Tariffs Could Deal a Blow to Boeing and the Aerospace Industry Aerospace companies are big exporters but also very reliant on a global supply chain, making them vulnerable.

Trump’s Tariffs Could Deal a Blow to Boeing and the Aerospace Industry

“If tariffs are imposed, analysts said, moving that production to the United States would be difficult, if not impossible.”

They said “if you want what we have, do what we did.” I wanted to be sober so I followed instructions and I did the work, one day at a time for 43 years.

Beyond grateful for a life I didn’t think was possible.

Trust the #NTSB. I worked with them on an 737-400 engine bird strike event in Portland, ME when I worked at major airline. The investigation was thorough and meticulous - nothing was left uncovered. The NTSB is staffed with professional and highly experienced investigators.

My Nephew just enlisted in the #USArmy. Your Mom and Dad would be so proud of you, Freddie. I'm proud of you too. Go get em!

How Trump Is Pushing at Limits of Presidential Power in Early Orders In a flurry of unilateral executive actions, Mr. Trump revived disputed claims of broad presidential authority from his first term — and made some new ones. Court battles seem likely.

Newly #sober? It’s tough during the holidays or the “silly season” - lots of emotions, etc.

If you’re having a hard time and don’t want to drink or use, call one of those numbers you picked up at a meeting or go to a meeting, online or IRL. You’ll get through it, trust me. Just don’t drink. 😃👍🏽🎄🎅🏽
