@levarburton Thanks for reading "The Toynbee Convector" - I really enjoyed it and found hope in the story.

Expedition is planned to find wreckage of Wisconsin WWII ace pilot's famous plane startribune.com/expedition-pla…

So beautiful and sad.

But they are both so old!

@mnhs It's a candleholder, and the hook and sharp point are used to put/hang it in different places.

It's #WhatIsItWednesday! Look familiar? Pictured here is an item from our collections. Can you guess what it is/what it was used for? Last week, we shared this photo of a Hmong baby carrier, often called daim nyias in Hmong.

@JD_Central Waited 20 years to see them and finally did at this show. Chills!

@MattGourley I enjoyed the subtle "Aliens" reference in this week's Summer Smores ("a-holes elbows/stay frosty"). Sgt. Apone would no doubt approve.

@douglasmack I would assume. I think most of us only know of it from "A Christmas Story."

@douglasmack My wife used to drink Ovaltine. It was one of the things that convinced me that she was secretly 80 years old. Love of Lawrence Welk and “Wheel of Fortune” were other clues.

@douglasmack Clearly you are not a Business Genius™

@electricalWSOP This is a photo from their last show with Darby Crash (Dec. 3, 1980 - the Starwood).

How did I not know Lorna Doom played a Peavey T-40? #PointyLogotype

@OnDisasters These books are still so, so good. Great ways to learn about a topic with lots of visuals.

Off course, there was one on aviation, which I raided often from the local library...

@DanMarStP Nervex lugs, chromed stays, Reynolds 531 frame. Is that a Brooks Professional saddle I spy?

@douglasmack Bless you for doing this kind of content. I can't wait to read.

In 1962, JFK chose this font for “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” on fuselage of Air Force One because it resembled typeface of an early printed version of the Declaration of Independence:

@douglasmack You are on to something!

@JaredGoyette I did it a few times (Hopkins-St. Paul). It's great if you've got three hours before and after work (total), but it just wiped me out. Wish I had a closer office.

I biked to work. 19 miles each way. Minneapolis to Eden Parie. I was not fast. At no point did I look athletic. Hills are not in my vocabulary. But I kept going, kinda.

@douglasmack @ArielDumas I remember interviewing a beekeeper in MN about 10 years ago who said his dad invented the bear-shaped bottle. And I clearly remember thinking, "No he didn't."

@bizarrealbums I was working on a typewriter repair when listening to this episode. Kept laughing so hard that I lost (and later found) a few small parts.
