SpongeBob's 25th anniversary is in a couple of months, and Phineas & Ferb's revival comes later this year. If any editors are seeking unique feature stories to mark either occasion - particularly regarding Rocko's connection to either show - I'm all ears. @AlDaniel/cradle-o-creators-rockos-modern-life-at-30-dc47eed393c9" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@AlDaniel/crad…

Tomorrow, @RhodeIslandFC looks to cap a storybook inaugural campaign in the USL Championship Final. As I wrote back in March before the season kicked off, the Ocean State is historically no stranger to championship semipro soccer. @AlDaniel/the-history-of-semipro-soccer-in-rhode-island-41a599e4d911" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@AlDaniel/the-…

‘Phonetic’ is not. ‘Abbreviation’ is 12 letters. ‘Thesaurus’ doesn’t have a synonym. Say what you will about English, but it has a sense of humor.

Why is a native of Bowling Green, OH who now lives in Nashville, TN being honored as a Boston sports legend? Not only is Scott Hamilton's entire family from Massachusetts, but doctors in the area saved his life -- twice. My story for the Globe: bostonglobe.com/2024/11/14/spo…

@ashleyrcummings General Melchett would approve.

Me: Can I say "gobbledygook" in a SaaS article? Your thoughts?

@hlrule Hey! How 'bout sending some of that cool air out East? Quit hogging the good stuff, Minnesota!

Scariest thing ever on Halloween. Made worse by the fact that it was 80 degrees two days ago.

Happy Nevada Statehood Day to those who celebrate.

@VannahHanson Still, with Thanksgiving being this country's ultimate food holiday, you'd think the Food Network would explicitly dedicate more content to it.

@WriterAlDaniel Usually Holiday Baking starts airing in the middle of November, so the first few challenges are more Thanksgiving inspired!!

So, Food Network is already hyping its prompt transition next month from Halloween Wars and Halloween Baking Championship to Holiday Baking Championship and Christmas Cookie Challenge. So, I must ask again, why no Thanksgiving Pie Tournament?

@LynnRutherford @ParaSprtSpokane Never thought I'd encounter the phrase "finicky gate," but here we are.

Great interviewing U.S. 100m recordholder Lindi Marcusen & coach David Greig of @ParaSprtSpokane. Lindi's mindset re: the accident that resulted in the loss of her leg: “I want to go forward and soak up as many positives that can come from it as possible, and let it expand me into the individual and athlete I have the potential to be.”

The more I think about it after publishing this, the more I remember tracks that could have filled a fourth volume: "Jungle Boogie", "Brick House", and "Roll On down the Highway", just to name three.

@ringer @tylrparkr Looks like Mr. Ballmer and Bob "Bucky" Taylor agree.

Steve Ballmer has spent years building up the toilets at his new arena. Are they worth the hype? Meet @tylrparkr in the (many, many) bathrooms of the Intuit Dome. theringer.com/nba/2024/10/29…

Speaking of which, here's a timely read for the occasion by @lclemjourno via @RIMonthly: rimonthly.com/on-tap-brewery…

Happy #NationalCatDay.

Since apparently hate towards Puerto Rico is being spewed on stage at MSG, just going to post the words of a great Puerto Rican. What a difference between this great man and ugly people full of hatred.
