Here’s an obligatory “I went to the Guthrie Theater” photo of the Gold Medal Flour sign. Seriously, check out this season’s production of ‘A Christmas Carol’. Minneapolis, Minnesota. November 26, 2016

I asked Frankie (via Twitter) what we could expect from tomorrow’s Minnesota winter storm. Here’s what he posted. The Grand Rapids shout outs were a surprisingly nice touch.

That time (ok this morning) when you mention to your colleagues that you were in the stands when Jack Morris pitched an epic Game 7, 10 inning shutout win for the Twins – and these folks look at you kindly, not knowing of what you speak because they were likely 3 years of age at that time.

This was an extraordinary episode of Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. I like to imagine that if my father and I had more time, we too would be eating Bun Cha in Hanoi – talking about his time in Vietnam during the war and how peace with your former enemy is a wonderful thing.
