In Detroit for work and took stroll around downtown. So great! ATL can take some tips. Spaces activated, wide sidewalks. Impressive!

Milestone day! Been riding to work most days on my trusty @ElectricBikeCo e-bike for a little over a year and just hit the 1,000 mile mark, something I never guessed I’d do when I started. Hadn’t ridden much in decades.

Just got new business cards. Which I hardly ever use these days. Updated to only include my cell number. Haven’t used my desk top phone since COVID.

Another reason I love working @AtlantaRegional At all staff meeting this morning, we were asked to raise hands if we took transit, biked, walked or carpooled to work today. About 3/4 of hands went up!!

Wow this is something. Great reporting
For my first story @latimes, I went to Mexico and got drugs. Specifically, @ConnorASheets and I went to pharmacies, got pills & tested them. Turns out, some are selling oxy & Adderall over the counter – but the pills are actually fentanyl & meth. latimes.com/world-nation/sto…

Just finished season 2 of Slow Horses. Is anyone better in a show at the moment than Gary Oldman? Can’t get enough.

Eager to ride the new rail cars, who needs a Tesla?
Our new CQ400 rail cars are being designed and constructed by Stadler in Salt Lake City. Get a behind-the-scenes look at the physical and virtual reality mockups of our future trains – and see how we’ve engaged both the public and our staff in the design process.

@statnews @adamfeuerstein So I am watching Dopesick. Amazing TV. How realistic is the the portrayal of FDA?
Watching the world cup from C terminal. Somehow booked both flights on US game times.

OK LOVING Andor. But how is it that Andor is the least interesting character on the show. Just me?
