I'm saving most of what happens in my life for the book I'll never write that nobody will want to read anyway.

Poolside with friends.

@CraigMish @Will_Planas @jeremytache Not quite. It requires the Ultimate tier. If you get Xfinity but don’t subscribe to the top and most expensive tier, you don’t get the games. ($30/mo extra with Regional Sports Fee for me in PBC; cheaper to get $99/yr streaming version)

@Will_Planas @jeremytache You are good. No fee.

Marlins announce the TV channels Marlins games will air this season. If you subscribe to any of these services - you are set. If not (YouTube) you can purchase the season pkg for $99 at Marlins.TV and it also comes with 2 free tickets to any game in April.

@BrettHolcomb8 Lovely Boynton Beach, aka Long Island South. Though I have exchanged “Go Birds” with people at Publix and Wawa on occasion.

@pmsimon Perry where down in Florida are you?

Just got off phone with Comcast/Xfinity- over $30/mo to add tier w/Marlins & Rays games to my cable service. I can get Marlins thru MLB.tv for $99/season. Or save $ and stick with free MLB.tv. All I watch are Phillies games anyway. Nope, Comcast.

Plenty of seats available. Cold Monday night, so understandable. Mostly seniors. Quiet despite best efforts of the in-game host. Very few kids. They probably know better.

With the Phillies… okay, a bunch of minor leaguers in Phillies uniforms, plus a smattering of regulars in town to play the Nationals, it seemed appropriate to drop by. It’s cold, by Florida standards, anyway.

That was a great halftime show. Like a perfectly choreographed block party. Worth sitting through an excruciatingly dull first half of football.

Good morning, South Florida! The temperatures are falling and so are the frozen iguanas.

Just wondering WTF is going on atop Greg Bovino’s head. Bald below, weeds on top. Looks like negative image male pattern baldness. He can’t possibly look in the mirror and think, yeah, lookin’ good. Also, he’s sniffing a lot.

@Matt_Pinner Here’s WTAF 29 Philadelphia signing off in 1985 with a community bulletin board, the anthem, and the standard recitation of technical information. Most stations signed off around 1 or 2 am. youtu.be/M87BtsumgeA?si…

My grandparents told me that in the old days, TV channels would stop broadcasting around midnight. They'd play the national anthem & then go completely off air until morning. Is that real, or are they just messing with me?

My appliances are sending me a message

Never imagined that the most important five words to say would be "Do you have a warrant?" but here we are.

@Samhauser92 Meanwhile, you can park at the Hard Rock casino in Hollywood for ten bucks and get a free shuttle bus to and from the game. Tailgating isn’t worth a thousand bucks. Nothing on FB Marketplace is worth a grand.

This person is asking for a GRAND for a PARKING PASS on FACEBOOK MARKETPLACE.

Patiently awaiting frozen iguanas to plummet from the palm trees.

Here’s my last column, a farewell review of what passes for my career. I’m done. If you’ve read my column over the last 30 or so years, thank you. I’ll go now. barrettmedia.com/2025/12/22/tha…

Bongo’s reportedly leaving his FBI job, so he can go back to blocking me on Xitter.

Coachella for idiots.

The station that proved you can milk decades of success superserving very angry people. Sorry for those losing their employment, but can't say I'll miss Radio Mambi. Besides, it's unlistenable here in PBC, unless you like electrical interference. radioinsight.com/headlines/3272…

Listened to a few mins of Erick Erickson insisting that Medicare for All is dangerous because, I don't know, Communism, then Clay Travis & Sex Buckton explaining how war would be good because of lower oil prices and, I don't know, Communism. Talk radio, everybody!

Just called to make a doctor's appointment, got an AI "agent" that kept veering from English to Spanish and wanted a LOT of information. Then the doc's office called and asked the same questions, because the AI screwed up and made an appointment for the wrong office. F AI.
