I love the same things today that I loved as a kid: telling stories, cats & dogs, Kenny Rogers, All the President's Men and mac & cheese. Family is cool, too.

I’m heartbroken by the loss of @joebonsall of the Oak Ridge Boys. The group opened for @_KennyRogers for many years and Joe always had so much fun on stage. It’s fitting that Joe’s last tweet was about his sweet Maggie, the kitten who brought him such happiness in his last year.
Hard to believe but a year ago today we picked up the little Maggie kitten and brought her home. She’s been here a year. She’s a great little cat.

So many bad things in the #debate between @JoeBiden and @realDonaldTrump. Biden often seemed frail and confused, Trump avoided answering questions and telling the truth. Also, @cnn moderators @jaketapper and @DanaBashCNN had little control. #DebateNight #disaster

I’m not going to join the bashing of the @heraldleader for the huge Page 1 typo. I’m sure they’re kicking themselves enough. I admire the apology from @EditorRAG. But I admire the paper’s history of great work even more. Plus they hired @TessaDuvall, who killed it at @jaxdotcom.
The last time I saw @shaunpcassidy in concert was a bit over 40 years ago when I was in high school. He waved to me and I squealed and cried. I’ll be seeing him tomorrow at the @pvconcerthall, where I hope he waves to me again. And where there’s a good chance I’ll cry. #teenidol

So sorry to read that Denise Lee has passed. She was a mix of determination, compassion and a touch of stubbornness. Denise put the community first and she had no patience for foolishness or petty politics. Rest easy, Denise. You did good.
Denise Lee is one of those I thought would live forever. We tussled in my very first City Council appearance in 1994. Lots of other tussles after that. But through it all, we developed a deep friendship and I loved her. Incredibly sad tonight, but laughing at so many memories!

Thanks to @matt_carlucci for publicly acknowledging he made an error in a tweet. (See screenshot.) A lot of folks would never do that. But honesty and accountability are two of Matt’s best qualities.

Thanks for supporting the incredible journalists at @jaxdotcom who are planning a #walkout. These folks have been through hell and back with @Gannett as they’ve fought four years for a fair wage. Thanks to all who donated to cover their pay that day. #journalism #walkout #strike gofund.me/f6976b1b
THE TIMES-UNION IS GOING ON STRIKE.
We’re walking off the job after over four years of bargaining for fair wages, benefits and newsroom protections. It is clear that current Gannett management has no intention to bargain over these issues in good faith.

Remembering those who gave all for our country and sending love to those who miss them.

Without a doubt, Tina Turner was a legend who overcame tough times to be such a bright light and huge talent in this world. Also without a doubt, heaven just got a hell of a lot more fun. #RIP #tina #tinaturner #legend

As a @KentuckyMBB fan, I have spent most of my life rooting for Denny Crum’s @LouisvilleMBB teams to lose. But in reality, Coach Crum was one of the classiest coaches in the game. RIP.

Don’t tell @MaryKelliPalka I said this, but @UofNorthFlorida made a great hire for the director of strategic communications gig. Congratulations, weirdo. Let’s grab lunch soon.
I’m excited to say I’m starting something new today. I’m now the director of strategic communications for the University of North Florida. Taking the first day to learn more about this organization. I also welcome any UNF-related tips, suggestions, introductions from you. #SWOOP

I’m having a slight touch of writer’s block, so I stepped away from my laptop to get a soda. I found sweet Prince eating treats directly from the container. (I forgot to put the lid back on.) He looked so cute, I just let him be. #cat #CatsofTwittter #cats
