Hey, here's a rarity - a follow who may still have the same Timberwolves web designer gig that they had when I started following them!


Wow, this activist group lasted all of 18 tweets! (Maybe they got whatever laws they needed passed or repealed? We could always hope. I know I still can't buy booze on a Sunday or in a grocery store in this backwater state...)


I followed him around the time he started being talked about as part of the ownership group to save the Sacramento Kings. He doesn't tweet much but occasionally does a flurry of at-replies nobody ever sees


The godfather of the dance remix as far as I'm concerned. I'm glad he's still with us!


Brian (and Bob) Keselowski's race team. Brian's a better follow than his team. I wonder if he'll ever go out for a Sprint Cup race again - he always seems to try Daytona and then disappear


THE place to hear about flop violations first! Often retweeted by other hoops beat writers so why not follow them and get it from the source immediately?


I am not immune to the power of the Chairman and followed him the day he joined (which, according to his first tweet, was April Fools Day 2013, so I'm almost up to 18 months ago!) - he doesn't tweet much but it's almost always interesting (but God, wasn't this an awful show)


Ex-wife of a friend (well, she's also a friend on her own, but that's how I met her), "Dixie" used to be "Laura" and on Twitter with her own account, which she deleted - she pretty much only uses this one to point people to her blog (which is an excellent read, if only infrequently updated). She's all over Facebook, too.


Hey, THERE'S that Public Information Office account we referenced up there!


I LIKE our chief, but she does a whole lotta retweeting of anyone even MENTIONING her and not so much giving us good information or telling us how she's keeping our more racist cops from shooting black people. This photo is from the godawful "Zombie Pub Crawl" downtown where the streets STILL run red with fake blood. Strong on photo ops, very weak on community engagement where she can't control the message. Reminds me of former mayor Rybak in that regard...and actually our current mayor Hodges appears to be heading in that direction as well, sadly...

On one hand, I wish Kraftwerk did more on Twitter; on the other, I'm amazed they're even ON Twitter


Super rock star and Staraoke hostess - she didn't really take to Twitter, though. (She writes GREAT Facebook status updates! They may one day end up compiled in a book. Why didn't I think of that?)


He used to be a fun, candid tweeter...before he hired himself as Timberwolves head coach. Now...well, you can see that we've never heard from him since. Maybe with a new season starting we can get him back on Twitter?


I think the Timberwolves tried to get him to do the Twitter thing, but he ended up never tweeting. His profile says he's a Bobcat (he's on the Magic as I type this....I think) so he's probably abandoned the account completely. Let's hack it!


Hey, I followed somebody from the board long after I stopped following people from the board!


THE BEST PIO officer on Twitter. I LOVE his photos. And he has, like, an ENORMOUS geographical area to cover, but he makes it look so wonderful and beautiful. I would love to have his job.


Far less enthusiastic about this one - they don't even give you their name? Wack


dunkndollaz asked us to stalk his daughter so I did. (That's how I remember it, anyway.) She doesn't tweet much. I seem to recall a lot of hockey tweets when she DID tweet.


The BCA is another account a lot of journos would retweet so I figured I'd follow them to get their tweets firsthand in real time. They actually don't tweet so much, which is probably good as it means we don't have a lot of high crime happening in the state. (Or so they'll have me believe!)


The Timberwolves equipment manager may have the best handle on Twitter, but he doesn't do a lot of tweeting except to at-reply to beat writers who rather mercilessly heckle him (he seems to like it, a least) - oh man, only TWO DAYS until the HOME OPENER!!!

I can tell we're in the home stretch! We're up to last year's NBA draft, looks like...
Everybody was retweeting him because he scooped everybody on practically everything NBA-related - still does - so I followed him too. He's the most fun on draft night when he consistently beats ESPN on EVERY SINGLE PICK.


Former hauler driver for Front Row Motorsports - looks like he hasn't been doing that for a while - also, his timeline is like 90% retweets of other people - I think I'm unfollowing him....eh...he doesn't even retweet that much. Guess I'll stick with him. What a softie I am!


Musical artist - if you couldn't figure out they were British, this tweet definitely would confirm it!


I was very excited when I learned Craig David was on the Twitter, but insane amounts of self-promotion and the occasional photo of his abs have tempered my enthusiasm - I'm sticking with him for now, though


They do a lot of retweeting of people mentioning Classic Pop magazine, but they also occasionally have some "outside the magazine" news that's pretty cool - this is a good example - by the way, it's incredibly expensive but you owe it to yourself to at least try ONE issue and see if it sings to you - and then subscribe if it does


He actually followed me first after I mentioned how I would be not seeing him at the 7th Street Entry, so I followed him back. He's a fun follow!


Former drummer in (Prince and) The Revolution, another guy I followed as soon as I figured out he was on Twitter. I've seen him in the flesh! His timeline is almost all retweets that take place during his weekly radio show. But not annoying enough to unfollow.


Followed him after the Timberwolves drafted him. He'll be our #1 center sooner than you think (sorry, Pek!) and I hope Sqor pays him handsomely for propping up their "social network"


Formerly @phenom15balla, a much funnier handle, but our 'bazz is all grown up now.


Somehow I missed Corey on Twitter - or he wasn't tweeting at the time. Not enough pictures of his GOAT. (It appears that this is his child and not his goat.)

Timberwolves center once followed me for hyping his Facebook page, told me I had "cool glasses" and promised to mail me a gift, which he never did - but the follow was gift enough


Former keyboard wizard for (Prince and) The Revolution; doesn't tweet or retweet nearly as much as his bandmate Bobby Z (who was probably how I found HIM)


Former Summer League invitee to the Wolves, has endured some untimely injuries or he'd be on the Bulls right now - looooooooves social media, especially Instagram, Vine and Snapchat. Very chatty but also a very amusing follow


Another serial retweeter - man, artists are great at creating music but can often be not as good at creating original tweets


Former Mixmag writer turned artist - no danger of him becoming the next Neil Tennant, but that doesn't mean he still can't put out some good grooves or share some decent info on Twitter


HSEM is "Homeland Security and Emergency Management" and they're one of the more boring state accounts I follow - thankfully, that ALSO means there aren't any real emergencies going on


Rotating access to this account means a healthy crew livetweets wrestling shows, but tweets like the above can also be used to determine spikes in board visits by bored DVDVR users who can't get to their homebase


I followed him during my mayoral run when he said he was impressed we had a mayoral candidate who new what Unicode was. He's pretty out there and has some very specific topics of interest, but he also has some interesting at-conversations with other people I follow which I can eavesdrop...I'll get to them pretty soon, I bet


Former King, former Wolves coach, now back with Kings television and retweets EVERY SINGLE MENTION of Bobby Jackson on Twitter, so I have just unfollowed him - with great regret, but DAMN.


My personal hero and it's delightful how Daft Punk have gotten people interested in him again. He may yet release new music! Has Liked and favorited stuff on Facebook and Twitter and I want to believe that he really has nothing better to do that putter around on social media - to his credit, he's probably old enough that that's possible, once you get past the fact that men his age usually aren't ever on the computer. (Of course, when I'M that age, you can bet that's the ONLY place I'm gonna be...heck, I'm close to that at THIS age)

Occasional blogger, collector of FOIA requests, staunch privacy advocate, gets a lot of stuff up his butt for a bit longer than I'd like, but it's nice to believe in stuff. This #pointergate thing isn't his finest hour, but again, it's nice to believe in stuff. I'm old and cynical and think it's a waste of effort, nothing will change, and nobody watches 5 Eyewitness News ALREADY, so. Anyway, he and Ryan and Anton swap a lot of at-messages, so I get to voyeuristically follow them that way.


Movement for transparent government which I'd love to help out more than "following while a candidate for mayor" (which probably didn't help at all!)


Almost as much of a waste of space as the "Reliable Sources" account - but they tweet maybe once or twice a day on non-Sundays so you've heard me sing this song before...


KING OF THE HYPE! Former hype man for MC Hammer, cut loose just before Hammer really blew up, along with Big One (Bigg 1? It is impossible for Google to tell me how he liked his moniker's spelling), The Lone Mixer and DJ Redeemed and the list goes on. One of those "holy crap, HE'S on Twitter?!" discoveries even though I don't think I've ever seen him tweet - I wonder if he's still alive...pretty sure The Lone Mixer isn't


Wow, I totally forgot I followed him. What I mainly remember him for is that if I post ANYTHING on Google+, he'll +1 it. I think he probably hasn't been on the board in five years as well (if I remeber which account he is...or I'm way wrong and probably will get in big trouble now) - whoa, that's EXACTLY five years ago today! WEIRD.


I used to know him from some mailing lists back in the 90s, but now he is the editor of Classic Pop magazine AND has a sweet gig putting together archival ZTT Records releases. No idea why his Twitter is private


I think he's still working on something media-related for the Timberwolves? He mostly retweets, and even does THAT sparingly


Former Timberwolf, was a monster for the Iowa Energy in the D-League last season. Don't know if he made it back up to the Association this season or not. Obviously he doesn't tweet much!


Don's current project - well, he has a couple post-ZOOBOMBS projects but this is the one that tweets. Almost everything gets retweeted by the old Zoobombs account anyway, but it's not like I invest a lot of time in translating these...they usually just get skimmed over


Great guy, friend from Modesto and this is his second or third time on Twitter. He doesn't tweet much, but he can't quit it either.

I THINK we're under 100 to go? I've totally checked out. Have a good weekend!

Despite me getting an oven mitt with their handle proudly displayed, I believe they've given up on Twitter. (And that oven mitt may have been left over from last year)


Our city has a pretty cool elections division given all the malarkey fringe candidates put them through


Hmm, I wonder if they've lost THEIR password as well!


Good friend from Modesto - this is his only tweet! So he's got John Lankford beat for sure


Mark's latest gig as "beer ambassador" has led to this separate account, which is also a cool follow.


Former Timberwolf, now with the Sixers thanks to the K.Love trade. He once retweeted me, making him (at the time) my favourite Timberwolf


Former weekend anchor at KARE with Rick Kupchella, now works for Kupchella's Bring Me The News - and is a LOT more active on Facebook for BMTN.


Everybody's current favourite 90-something ex-president - loves tweeting pictures of his weird socks


#staypositive


Another "I can't believe he's on Twitter so I must follow him" follow, but weirdly it's all DAD tweets

Nobody to unfollow in this crew - and we're nearing the end! Only 97 accounts left unless I go on a following spree to take me above 544...

So Anton has a separate account for his Wolves stuff - which seems silly, but it's a free Twitter. (Mostly) I might also watch Pitino vs. Pitino tonight before switching to the truck race...


Our current mayor pointed at a black guy once and now it's all anybody can talk about. She's not great on Twitter - nobody really needs to follow another "one inspirational quote every day" - but at least she's slightly less annoying than our previous mayor (who I was happy to unfollow long before I started this project). Finally, as a mayor, I'm not entirely certain I've been convinced she can do the job better than I could have. On the other hand, it's hard to discount the fact that waaaaaaaay more people voted for her than me


BMTN's "feed only" account, because their other accounts got a little too "social" (read: annoying) - unfortunately, they still don't tag their "sponsored content" any different from their actual news stories so you can find yourself clicking through to some really useless shit if you're not paying careful attention


(Former?) Timberwolves in-arena hostess


(Current?) Timberwolves in-arena hostess - they've REALLY cut back on the in-arena hosting duties, by the way - I haven't even seen the guy they DID hire enough times to be able to complain about how I'd be doing the job better because they've done practically NOTHING this year - which was a conscious decision, I'm told, as season ticket holder feedback basically said "in-arena host segments are a waste of time and you shouldn't do them" - which, in turn, leads me to wonder why they even bothered with the open auditions that I attended....ah well, it was fun for me to try once.


They were BACK! And then they were gone. I think they have a Thanksgiving special coming, though...


KARE reporter - I REALLY like that she'll basically admit to watching shows on non-NBC networks without worry of reprisal


Former KARE reporter, now spokesman for the horribly racist MPD - no wonder he stopped tweeting immediately after picking up the new gig


KARE morning reporter - as much as I love KARE, I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate their "Food Fight" hashtaggery and the way it can clog up my timeline when all I really want is NEWS


Another "underfunded" NASCAR team whose primary owners are Burger King franchisees

A DVDVR board guy, he hooked me up with NXT knowledge when I happened to be near Orlando on the right night. Still annoyed that I didn't pick him out of the crowd as I believe he ended up like ten feet from me


I don't totally remember how I came to follow her - maybe she followed me first? - but we have a lot of mutual friends in real life AND on the social medias. She gave me an ello invite! (Anybody need an ello invite?)


Ellie's second job has its own Twitter! But doesn't do a lot of non-retweeting. Is there a Blingo! season? We may not be in it now that it's gettin' cold out


Here's the account the President of the Timberwolves landed on after whatever troubles he experienced with his original one (@WolvesPrez, which still has way more followers)


Wolves "Live Programming and Entertainment" - they should tweet more!


Here's a kid who liked some of my Wolves instagrams and also sat darn close to courtside (where she'd tweet interesting photos of the opposition bench) - further to the story that her family must be loaded, I believe she's now college-ing overseas (Ireland?). I should probably unfollow her but I don't have a lot of other accounts I'm following where I get a perspective like hers. I just hope I don't look like some creepy old man by continuing to follow her. (Well, NOW I feel creepy - I shouldn't'a oughta typed that)


Ya know, so long as he stayed off of Twitter, Dale Jr. just took to it like a natural. He's awesome on Twitter and probably also in real life. I can't even lie. I get why people love him now.


KARE reporter, always looking for someone to cry on camera (this call is for the tragic story of the 14 year old kid died in the hockey tourney this weekend)


Hey, when all the meterologists are just retweeting you anyway, might as well follow and get the goods direct. I love their pictures


Dave's current band (one of them? The only one? I forget) That WAS a good show.

Another friend from Modesto - over 90% of his (only 34) tweets are retweets or at replies


Former Timberwolves assistant coach (also former Kings coach - he's an Adelman guy), of HIS 134 tweets, only like TWO aren't retweets. I had to duck into the at-replies to find something he actually wrote HIMSELF! Is he using Twitter wrong....or PERFECTLY?


One of the Managers of Information Development at Symantec...I think. I don't know what goes on in that other building. She has eight tweets in five years. Used to have a sweet work handle (NetBackupDocs?) years ago, but opted to change it to this one instead.


Gilly's race team primarily fields late models for son Todd - Gilly was retweeting this account enough that I figured I owed them a follow


The patriarch - David's father and Todd's grandfather. He currently lives in Thailand (bet there's a story there) so he's never quite sure when his grandson is racing


The man behind the greatest NASCAR blog on the planet; its sole purpose is to document the last place finish of every one of the big three touring series. Probably Caleb Roark's favourite site!


Ran for State Rep. against Phyllis Kahn this time around and managed to hold her to only 77% of the vote. (Nobody ever told him grammatically incorrect tweets probably wouldn't help.) The fact that he hasn't tweeted since the election has made him easy to not unfollow!


Ran (may still run) a lot of music related email lists I subscribed to in the 1990s. One of the few people to own more KLF 12" singles than me, at one time. (Also assume he still has physical possession of assloads of music - maybe I should tweet him sometime and find out!)


Ran for Senate - lost to Franken - also hasn't tweeted since the election


Ensured us another four years of Governor Dayton - Minnesota: last blue state in the nation

Seven posts to go!

Strange - Twitter says I now follow 544 but I still have 545 names on my "following" page - who is in limbo?!?!?!?!

Well, let's knock off ten more while we're here.




The Timberwolves' draft picks this year almost became afterthoughts after the Love trade brought over Wiggy, Bennett and Thad Young. Now that our entire starting lineup is injured, however, I expect to see more minutes from them tonight than I'd like...


I won a hat from Todd (which he AND David signed!) so he's got me for life.


Susannah is on hiatus from fDeluxe while the IRS takes everything away from her - it's a really sad story. She's so pretty.


KARE producer/afternoon/fill-in meterologist - usually just retweets one of the other meterologists...or are THEY retweeting HIM? HMMMMMMMM.


Icelandic singer who is not Bjork - appeared on the "first" gusgus album almost 20 years ago (gosh, almost 20 years!) - now tours solo and acoustic with her man and cute kid sharing lots of beautiful photos of scenic lands along the way


Todd's frequent DGR teammate - Todd drives the 98 and Ankrum drives the 58. He was supposed to sign my cap, too, but he didn't! But I got over it!


Still doin' it d&b style for Bristol and beyond


And now we're finally to the REAL home stretch and the Timberwolves' summer roster from a few months back. Fesenko is actually an NBA vet of several years - a large Russian man who has many hilarious one-liners. This might be one of them, but I don't speak this particular language. He has a hot girlfriend and...doesn't use Instagram to remind the world as much as I remembered, now that I check. He doesn't tweet enough to annoy me into unfollowing him


Apparently DJ tweets all the time and I skim right by them because they are all like this and mean very little to me. I should probably unfollow him....but I won't. (I'll think about it later, though.)

Expect a pretty boring ten next time as we work our way through the Summer League people - that means we've GOTTA be close to 500, right?

We start with the rest of the Timberwolves summer (2014) roster (which means somewhere in here we'll go over 500!)...


Last man waived by the Timberwolves in the summer (well, not counting JJ Barea, I guess) - he's tearing up the D League for Reno at the moment. On Twitter, he's mostly retweets and I guess with this lack of internal spell check, that might not be a bad idea...or maybe that's how they spell in Canada. Who can say?


Doesn't tweet


Tweets A LOT - but I guess it can be boring over in...where's he playing? Turkey, I think? Italy? He's pretty entertaining


I remember nothing about this guy


No, wait, THIS it the guy playing in Turkey


He's in Germany


And HE'S in UKRAINE! LaRon's also liked really random Instagram band photos I've taken, which I definitely appreciate, but just makes him seem even more...let's say MERCURIAL - or super bored when not playing basketball


KARE "investigative reporter" - I'm not impressed with him ... thus far, all I've really seen him do is take a ten second item barely qualifying as "news" and turn it into seven minutes - he also handles local versions of whatever Gannett/USA Today cooks up for "sweeps"


Drummer of Mint Condition also works with Paul Peterson and Eric Leeds on their LP Music project


"Holy crap! The other guy from Wham! is on Twitter!" Must be a nice life.

OK, this was a pretty boring group - sorry. It may or may not get more exciting as we reach the end...

Is the unfollow total at double digits yet? After reading some of these descriptions I often root for the unfollow like a Roman in the Colisium, and you more often than not give them the thumbs up and they live and my weird thirst goes unquenched.

I have followed 3 to 5 people off of this list though none of them have Timberwolves or KARE connections.

Sorry, I don't even think we've gotten into a second hand's worth of fingers.

But maybe we'll get one today!


Only tweeted six times and may have retired, but I'm a sucker for Minnesota Public Information Officers. I think I want to be a PIO - or did, before I started hating all policemen for being racist bullies who abuse their power and have problems with being filmed....ah, I digress. I'm sure all the PIOs I follow are mostly good guys who'd never lie to protect the precious institution of the...let's move on


Local craft brew and I'm sure there's a Mark Joseph connection which got me to follow them, too. Their beer is (usually) tasty! But I've never been to their taproom. I guess I should hang out in Northeast more.


After following everybody else in the Gilliland family, I figured it'd probably be OK to follow the one female Gilly on Twitter - plus, she sent me that hat I won, so we're practically best friends now! David's wife, Todd's mom - they have a daughter, too, but she is more of an equestrian than a racecar driver - and I THINK she's too young to be on Twitter. I haven't checked. Hey, I'm not THAT much of a creepy stalker.


Timberwolves "veteran" - he's pretty good (for a member of the Timberwolves)! - too bad he's got the flu or something. Hope he's well in time for tomorrow's game...


Dale Jr's future crew chief JOINED Twitter, but still hasn't tweeted. We'll see if Dale can convince him or not


KARE reporter (Savers, how COULD you?)


I think I had actually started on this project when I noticed I was following a dormant Mike Bliss account, so out of curiosity I looked around ... and apparently found THIS dormant Mike Bliss account - and also went on a TriStar Motorsports following spree...





...and here's another "underfunded" Nationwide/Xfinity team. JJ Yeley often races for them and does surprisingly well with what he's given.

Shoot, no unfollows here, either. Only...four to go, I think?

President Bongo is one of the mainstays in gusgus and did a lot of their "mixes" when they were releasing them on a monthly basis in the late 90s/early 00s - Radio Bongo kind of grew out of that


Oliver plays (and occasionally produces) fDeluxe - but never tweets


Awesomest Minnesotan lady on the Minnesota Lynx


Lynx player currently playing in Italy? She doesn't tweet much


Timberwolves.com reporter (well, maybe put that in quotes - he's the website editor, mostly, but does get to occasionally report whatever the team wants him to report)


Tumblr started with a flurry of activity and then quickly petered out. Not QUITE defunct, but close


Another recent acquisition for the Timberwolves - and a good one. He loooooooooves his wife!


The next greatest Timberwolf ever. I bet you can guess the next dude!


And that wraps up all the new Timberwolves from the Kevin Love trade. (And MIGHT end the list of Timberwolves players!)


Backmarker Sprint cup team - I guess we could just be amazed Randy Humphrey still fields a team (occasionally) but they have cut WAY back on the number of races they show up at...we'll see what they do next season...

THREE TO GO! I should probably do them all today. Well, let's see if I have any work first.

Let me tell you about the Internet - it's a place where a show you listened to over 20 years ago when you lived in the Power 106 listening area is now available to you as a podcast. WHAT A WORLD


Current PowerTools resident, and one of the first people I really dug when I listened to the show back in 1992 or 1993 or whenever. He also runs the Groove Radio experience, which I believe is now a Sirius channel or some other nonsense - I have a few GrooveRadio mix CDs and if only I knew which box they were in, they'd still hold up!


I think I was one of their first followers, but Lord have mercy - they will retweet ANYTHING said about them, hundreds of times, any hour of the day, and especially while their shows are on (in English OR Spanish). I'm also too old to get excited by the 10,000th time they've shown me that woman licking something or somebody. UNFOLLOWED! Not nearly as big a deal as their social media wizards would want your impression to be. (That said, this is a funny video.)

(I don't believe in disabling retweets for an account...I'll either follow them or I won't. I'm relieved to have finally made it here so I can unfollow this account.)


All Dale Jr all the time - will sponsor many (most?) of his Sprint Cup races next year - which is probably, sadly, a better investment than sponsoring the series just under the Sprint Cup series.


Nationwide (oops) team which has some technical alliances which allow their 98 car to do much better than you'd expect from a single car team. David Ragan drove some races for them last season, which was fun to watch


If I'm gonna follow all the police accounts, least I can do is follow a fireman account. If I had written this a few hours earlier, I could have shared the graphic that included the wise advice "Clean lent out of dryer vents"


A local band Kim may or may not be working with - they're OK; their lead singer is a super nice lady with a scary hairdo


Bix followed me so I ended up following him back. Part of me regrets it because he tweets SO MUCH, but he survives the cut until the next live MMA event I'm not watching and am not interested in annoys me enough to pull that trigger. (Oh, hi, Bix.)


Timberwolves director of Game Ops (I think) doesn't seem to want people to know he's on Twitter - probably because it would get him an endless stream of "hey why don't you ALWAYS play the Mario coin sound effect on a T-wolves made free throw" tweets...which I have thus far refrained from doing, by the way


He followed me and liked some of my crappy concert Instagrams so I followed him in the hopes he would ALSO tweet his much higher quality concert photos and/or Instagrams. He...hasn't tweeted much at all

Most recent Independence Party candidate for governor - she didn't get enough votes to keep them in "major party" status. Jesse Ventura, she is not. She has at least tweeted since the election, if only mostly to complain about school lunches


Most recent Libertarian Party candidate for governor - no, really! Don't let his lack of followers and almost-completely-weeded-up timeline fool you! (Also, how hilarious, another MMA tweet)


HOLY SHIT MIKE McGUIRK IS ON TWITTER (but she doesn't tweet much at all, sadly)


Kiko King & creativemaze supported gusgus on the American leg of their tour (and maybe some other countries, I wasn't really paying attention) - they're....OK


I promised the nice UCR Alumni rep who bought me a steak that I'd follow this account, and I'm a man of my word! (It IS kinda interesting to see what's going on at the alma mater I'll never be able to afford to give any money to - but God bless 'em for asking me once a year if I'm ready!)


I love this show and I was excited to see this account start up, but they are the Lucha Underground of cult shows cancelled over a decade ago. UNFOLLOWED. Hey, I love your show and I'd love for it to be rebooted but I have zero desire to see every mention of it ever on Twitter for all time. But hey, thanks for those favorites, Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein!


Makers of the cool Christmas shirts I get every year, they somehow forgot to send a tweet saying the new Christmas shirts were available for order. Luckily, following them was enough to trigger a reminder to check the website frequently. I guess I'll keep following them as they are a low-volume follow...


First Avenue took over the Turf, so now they tweet set times! So I followed them! (The Clown Lounge also has an account, but it's not tweeting and I'm not following...yet)


A little project I started up which has thus far failed to capture the Internet Wrestling Community's attention - maybe at 90 days?


There's gonna be a destination brewery within walking distance! Well...not necessarily "walking distance" in the winter...maybe when it's sunnier.

ONE TO GO - let's wrap this bitch up!
