Another year past and still nothing except slow satellite or Hotspot internet available. A @Bell_Support Fibe line went through a cross street 400m away but nothing more. No @RogersHelps, no @cogecohelps. Nothing from @northdumfries or @_BryanMay. It all stays the same.

@fernandaedi Don't forget write reference letters. We need to continue the cycle to the next generation.

@GuyCurtis10 I know of many people moving towards in-person verbal final assessments. Not in option in all courses but workable for smaller upper-year courses.

Ever consider if the 'traditional' academic year should change? We explore question such as this in, Re-imagining higher education: Time, Learning and Risk, in the open-source paper available from @JTLWindsor. @McMasterU @ACPA @McMasterCYU jtl.uwindsor.ca/index.php/jtl/…

@CanComedyHall Are the refunds going to be available soon? You mislead a lot of people.

@KyleSoppeESPN @DavidBearmanPFN This would have been great information to share on a podcast. Maybe one that focused on fantasy baseball? I wonder what it could be called? @karabelleric @SultanofStat @ESPNFantasy

@JamesGIS I am sitting in my office doing the same thing.

Please tell me I'm not the only one marking today. #endofterm

Great article from @aceciliacr illustrating the importance of courses such as Introduction to Latin American and Latinx Studies taught by @Stacy_AnnC & @RodrigoNarro at @McMasterU! tinyurl.com/49u3bytd

I used a phrase earlier that I was common but apparently is not. So, help me out here. Have you ever heard of an “Irish Goodbye”? eg “I went to the reunion last night but pulled an Irish Goodbye when it got sloppy.”

I have been fortune to have done research and explore Hidden River Cave for many years through a partnership with the American Cave Museum. This is a great article to see published. @HiddenRiverCave

Explain your research in 3 words or less.

@DrMMercier @McMasterGIS @Buster_ESPN I agree with those changes along with the larger bases. Baseball's problem is having nothing to debate. The numbers tell you what to do, who to bat, etc. It can be optimized like playing blackjack. At least the shift brought some discussion to the game.

@McMasterGIS @maclacjc @Buster_ESPN I think the pitch clock and bigger bases will put a higher premium on speed, which might indirectly help your contact hitting problem. There is going to be room in the game again for guys that get on and steal sone bases.

Do you support the idea of restricting defensive shifts? (Spikes on the dirt for infielders, two fielders on each side of second base)

@libraryzombie Dog!

Have I been retweeting cute animal pictures for the last 10 minutes? Hell yes. Why? Because the world always seems terrible and everyone could use a break. You're welcome. *drops mic and walks off*

@HuyckZen @riverfestelora @hockeyesque Say the Rheostatics play a bunch of times but the best was in front of about 100 people at La Luna resteraunt in Hamilton. Great show!

I'm not much for bucket lists. However last night @riverfestelora, after an awesome Rheostatics set... I got a chance to chat Leafs with @hockeyesque Just sayin'.

Great article from @McMasterU student @henrygage_ in Geoscience Today discussing the importance of continued monitoring and further research necessary in respect to the Niagara Escarpment. @TheSpec @cityofhamilton @Escarpment_NEC @GSC_CGC @UNESCO geoscienceinfo.com/the-niagara-es…

@ArsenaultClaire @ringer I could not agree more!
