It would be nice if we learned from history once in awhile!

Still true, more than 2,000 years later!

It was so wonderful watching these 27 people become US citizens today at St. Paul Academy and Summit school. #pride

Oh, to just hop on board. Lovely summer night!

I was honored to introduce Ms. Thomas at a luncheon.  All these people would come up and tell her how much they admired her work.  Then they asked her about her "retirement."  She was so annoyed!  She just glared and said, "I'm not retired!"

She was a great lunch companion.  She was a greater role model.

Helen Thomas, the pioneering White House reporter who covered every president from John F. Kennedy to Barack Obama, died Saturday at 92.

For decades Thomas claimed a front seat in the White House press room, and she got to know most of the presidents she covered well. But she told USA TODAY in a 2006 interview that there is one thing all presidents have in common — they hate the media.

"You have to start with that premise. And as time goes on, their position is, ‘Who the hell are you? How dare you ask?’" she said.

The awesomely ridiculous Syfy TV movie "Sharknado" took over Twitter last night, and today everyone is just trying to pick up the pieces.

It doesn't get any better than this.  Really.

Caught these two penguins trying to sneak into the garage. Again.

At least the box elder bugs on my desk hang out on my plant. @BryanPiatt 's desk, they go right for the coffee.

Looking for signs of spring. This box elder bug might be it for today.

We're going for the blueberry on this Pi Day. How about you?
