Taylor Swift just won "Tour of the Year" iheart award. She found some way to twist it into a martyred underdog story of a whine acceptance speech. So bizarre. She was actually kind of cute and....human(?) at one time. She has turned into a reptilian, voice and all.

So on day 5 of my new adventure as a smartphone user. It's so ****ing amazing. It's like I'm actually living for the first time in my life. :)
I hear ya. I held out for a full year after Lew got his, because his flip-phone died before mine, and I wanted him to know how to use them before I had to wrap my brain around them. Even then, my first one I used almost exclusively for telephone calls, almost never any apps. I'm sloooooooowly evolving. ;)
 
Garth having a grey beard and then the so obviously dyed black beard in the same montage is a little wierd. This should be better than it sounds...its like the sound has been sabotaged. They do that. Ask Howard Dean.
 
Welp probably going to stay up too late, Shawshank Redemption is on the Paramount network.

Work was long today but not near as hard as Tues. Roads still suck.
 
Listening to MPR someone is proposing a medium speed rail line (90mph tops) from the TC to Duluth. estimated cost 5-600 million. What say you Mn peeps good idea or boondogle?

They keep proposing the same for MPLS-Rochester. It's a ridiculously horrible idea in both cases. There's absolutely no chance the user fees can support such a thing. MPLS-Rochester would get WAY more traffic because of Mayo and it's still a horrendous idea. In Rochester's case they can't make it much faster than driving it if there are stops along the way to pick up Mayo employees and bring them to work vs the Mayo buses that currently do.

My neighbor currently works for 3M in MPLS and commutes daily but he'd have to Uber or taxi to work every day if he took a shuttle so there won't be a time savings.

Is US 52 six lanes yet? Or still just 4? I imagine that gets pounded on a dialy basis.
