@LaurieHertzel Lou Gelfand's morning would be ruined, too. And his afternoon. Relentless callers.

@_NickKelly As WCCO Radio's Roger Erickson might have told the school kids listening in back in the day, "Alabama -- formerly two hours late, now closed."

For the folks back home in Minnesota, it can in fact snow in Alabama. And classes were canceled today in Alabama

@HotakainenRob Hi Rob! Randy pointed me to your story, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Reminds me of the fine work you did at the Strib way back when. I do nation/world wires now and we've been running Till-related stories when we can. Wish we had the rights to this one! Cheers from Mpls...

MONEY, MISS.—There's genuine excitement in the Mississippi Delta about the new Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley National Monument, but also worries that President Joe Biden left out too many places that are central to the story of Till's 1955 lynching. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…

@emilyhaugen Congrats, Emily. I remember doing the same. Good luck on the next gig. P.S. I remember being at WKBT when my high school quiz bowl team competed in the mid-70s. Let's hope that film didn't get archived!

After two very special years, today was my last day at WKBT. For unknown reasons, I saved every reporter notebook I used since I started! Holy cats🤔

🧵 For those wondering how someone convicted of a hit-and-run that put a woman in a coma and sentenced to 8 years in prison in 2020 was out and driving around *licensed* in 2023, let me introduce you to the absurdity of how vehicular crimes are charged and sentenced.

@David_LaVaque @MSHSL @kare11, too

The @MSHSL out here making up teams/communities

@RickNelsonMN @MplsParkBoard @BrandtMpls had a hand in making this happen.

@StribBooks Maybe when "sleeps" did.

Sports journalism - and this Earth - lost a good one. Longtime @StribSports copy editor+Sunday section guru Pete Steinert died early this morning after a battle with cancer. It was Pete who came up with 'LET'S SKOL CRAZY' after the Minneapolis Miracle. Damn fine golf partner, too

Students living their best @ThreeSixtyMN lives today with all-star writing coaches like @pklauda @FrederickMelo @shijundu @deenafaywinter @katelyn_vue @samhoanglong and many more! #360EmergingVoices @chadc324 @ProfScottWinter @iguanafoot

@abbyisntcrabby Can you say more? Sounds like a good story idea.

The old milling district in Minneapolis gets a Sunday evening visitor.

@chris_steller @StarTribune Not exactly nine editions but a whole lot of newsroom activity staying on the late House speaker story. Glad you got the latest version.

I have never seen a nine-star edition of the @StarTribune before

Thursday morning edges into view in Minneapolis.

Downtown Minneapolis showed off a late Monday afternoon glow.

Downtown Mpls coyote makes Thursday morning rounds on Boom/Nicollet Island.

A splash of fall color Thursday morning in Minneapolis.

Rain or fog? Veil of colorful surprise Friday morning in Minneapolis.

Happy Friday from Minneapolis.
