Haaa! "Stop!" is a sticker; the note below is part of the cover art. This was the edition issued after "girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl you know it's girl y

This clueless love note was on the rear insert of a CD I got secondhand recently. Actually, "All You Zombies" (track 3) and (per my notes) "Where Do The Children Go" (track 7), at a minimum, are good too #ClassicAlternative

The #mnwild had a very welcome Enchanted Victory tonight 🏒 (5-1)

I had no idea about the #NoKings gathering in #Minneapolis earlier today, or I probably would have attended. Never saw any mention on here

(Just got online since early this afternoon) And Wonderwall was heard WoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT! #MNUFC

#mnwild It's incomprehensible this new Wild+ didn't make available a commercial subscription package licensed for public exhibition. A +1 to Tom Reid’s and any others who are choosing to stay aboveboard on this, even though it's inconvenient for everyone www.twincities.com/2026/10/12/b...

This is every kind of awesome and then some: www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne... And a factoid seen on the news but missing from the article: PK was there. So it looks like @mnufc.com was involved in this as well #StarWars #mnufc

One last #StPaul thing. This is the picnic area just past the easternmost Union Depot parking lot. Been curious about it. It's a tad forlorn at present, with that end of the parking lot being used as a staging area for the bridge work [?] and creating a bit of a dead end

It looks like the Kellogg Ave bridge east of Union Depot is close to getting finished #StPaul

Harbinger of things coming: the European Christmas Market at Union Depot in #StPaul. But we have a lot of fall goodness and the winter kickoff (with sports, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc) to enjoy first

A little #StPaul wandering afterward. Outside the Palace Theatre I ran into...Oysterfest?? If oysters on the half shell (is that what they're called?) is your thing, this was your place. This appears to be put on by the Meritage restaurant/oyster bar just around the corner

At the #TwinCitiesMarathon Ba daa da-daa da-daa Yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaaah yeaaaaaah THIS is the food truck I went to and enjoyed a lot--and failed to document--last year at aquatennial at the waterfront downtown

Well, that went from "coming" to "gone" in a big hurry #MNwx

#mnwild And so it began--and in good fashion: 3-1. And the tally last night while listening on the radio: of the Enchanted Word, the Counterpart, the Related and the Synonym, all four were represented

An identical oops from a long time ago, this time with #StarWars books. This and that other are the only two times I've done this

Oops. #Dune novels duplicity. Out of Navigators, Sisterhood and Mentats, I was almost certain one of those I still needed, but wasn't sure which. Looking (not carefully enough) through pictures of the books stored in the locker, it looked like I needed Mentats. I actually had all three

It's coming 🥳 #MNwx

An evergreen pleasure: deleting a title off the get-it list that was on there since the early/mid-2000s The numbers are priority key: 1 = low; 2 = medium; 3 = high; 4 = top #ClassicAlternative

In the tradition of album art depictions to nerd out over, some #ClassicAlternative Goodness obtained lately (Edition No. 19 it looks like)

If you're representing officials running for election and are displaying the #RebelLoon you have my immediate and at least initial support. Choosing to condemn all this mistreatment of and thuggery toward immigrants and be in solidarity on this matter goes a hell of a long way with me

The Sep 12 Event Three-Pack, the second of the #StPaul Festival Two-Pack only 20 blocks away: Selby Avenue Jazzfest

The Sep 12 Event Three-Pack, Event Two: the first of a #StPaul Festival Two-Pack. A non-drinker goes to #Oktoberfest. Might not be into beer, but am very much into Käzerspätzle

An Event THREE-PACK for Sep 12! First: Let's Have a Parade! The #Burnsville Fire Muster Parade. I said last year the festival itself is perpetually off the table and it still is. But the parade is absolutely a go

This is EXACTLY what I meant by "not much good goes on at fairs later at night." It was just before 10pm on 9-5, and anyone could have been victimized by this. I was there this day but had already left; this sort of thing is why www.twincities.com/2026/09/09/m... www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Let's say what it really is: these budget-priced properties attract RIFF-RAFF. Frustrating for us who go just to stay in a hotel. I've actually stayed here once (see dates) and somebody was howling like a banshee half the night kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 The Awesome Knit Headwear Montage 2

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 And here's where things truly get serious: The Awesome Knit Headwear Montage 1, and a bonus

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 And now, the all-important knit headwear. First, the Pre-Show

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 and Sep 5 An assortment of knit apparel and items, and yarn work. Also featured is a citation of that one instance where #StPaul gets dissed, which led to the creation of #WinterCarnival

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 More creative arts protesting thuggery and recognizing Minnesotan solidarity. Rightfully labeled "occupation" here, and not "crackdown". The word "crackdown" carries undercurrents of legitimacy, and there was nothing whatsoever legitimate with this thuggery

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 I absolutely dig this every which way and then some

2026 #MNStateFair on Aug 29 And some more of the exhibit protesting thuggery and recognizing Minnesotan solidarity

2026 #MNStateFair on Sep 5 Inside the DNR Building. It's simple: don't be a goon. Be a...you know. And you get TWO choices! It looks like the #MNUFC one assists the DNR as well

2026 #MNStateFair on Sep 5 Rory!! Got to see her for the first time and of course I begin bouncing off the walls (doing WHAT??) -- some @mnaurorafc.bsky.social fun. And just before was Jack Brass Band: they were Entrant E Plus Sixteen at the Ted Bearth Grande Parade at #Oakdale Summerfest
