When I’m overseas, I say I’m from “the States.” When I’m in the US, I say I’m from Oregon. When I’m in Oregon, I say I’m from Eugene. When I’m in Eugene, I say “Go Ducks.” teapaw.org/IrishLitTimes/status/1…

The new plant will produce 7,500 jobs. “Automotive assembly plants are incredible engines for economic growth, due to the positive ripple effects they create across a region’s economy," said Secretary Sanders. #CleanEnergy More: bit.ly/3I4d8i9 📸: @BrookTaylorCA

Exxon saw a 36% increase in profits. Buut they do risk losing 2% of their total profits IF their assets in Russia are seized (which has not happened). I’m no mathematician but I think we’re all getting screwed!! Time for #electricvehicles. #JointheCharge reuters.com/business/energy/…

My favorite autobiography of all time. From age 10-18, #SteveMartin worked at Disneyland 6 days a week. From 15-18 he did three shows a day at Frontierland and logged thousands of hours of performances before he was an adult. His comedy chops are unrivaled. #BornStandingUp

Wait until you meet a scrappy Oregon alum who gets ahead by being better prepared and out working entitled Ivy League slackers.
Random observation: The older I get, the more impressed I've been with folks who went to Yale, and less so with the Harvard grads (there are exceptions, of course). Is my sample skewed or have other folks seen this? (I would never have been accepted at either, btw).

Coach Lanning is crushing this off season. High energy, great messaging. But the only thing that matters is Ws. #GoDucks
Pre-COVID, I regularly got sick after flying on planes. Now I fly at least once a week. So forgive me if I selectively choose to wear a mask on a plane. Or you could just mind your damn business.

Does everyone whisper to themselves, “Password IS….” every single time before unlocking their computer or is that just me?
