vrijdag 24 april 2026 Trump's interventionism comes for Spirit Airlines. Analyst: I guess it would be the Amtrak of the skies...

Colbert's advocacy for Amtrak comes by channeling good ol' Joe Biden. It's a beautiful day in St. Paul - 53°F and abundant sunshine. The downtown is quiet. (It has that reputation.)

Me... the train guy... I'm taking the Metro Green Line 👉  to d'town Minneapolis' Government Plaza. Hello Nur House Cafe. It's an Ethiopian sponsored cafe. This is a delicious Salted Date Caramel Cloud! OMG! ☺️

donderdag 23 april 2026 Joel: Oh there's a marshmallow rainbow waiting for you, with kitties and doggies too. 🌈  Joel and the bots sing a song about Happy Thoughts after watching Bert I. Gordon's horror Tormented. It's creepy to see Vi's head floating around.

The view from my bed at my hotel. Sheez! I'm tired. I'm exhausted!

Train from CLE at 3 AM. Travel, travel and travel. Finally, I crash the frontier of Trumplandia at 10:36 AM. I'm freeeee! 🕊

I'm at Union Station Chicago. Lovely lunch break at Potbelly... until 6 ICE agents show up. 😑 Back at the station. Ready for the trip to St. Paul.

The Hyatt Place - St. Paul is gorgeous! Look at that beautiful bed!  Good night! 💤😁

woensdag 22 april 2026 Midnight movie - MST3K: Secret Agent Super Dragon. Joel and the bots spice things up with a cool jazz song... Secret Agent Super Dragon. Fabulous! 👈 🎶

Grant: Steve, you know what this is don’t you?... It’s a Time Space Warp! Watch MST3K: The Day Time Ended. It's a stupid 1980 American sci-fi film. Poor family is harassed by UFOs and aliens. Last night, I was harassed by thunderstorms, and I'm anxious about my trip.

It turns out to be a beautiful day. Skies clear. The sun is beaming. 🌞

dinsdag 21 april 2026 Drennon Davis and his talking cats - Doug & The Business Cats (Newt, Frog & Toad) - celebrate 4/20 with catnip. Watch My Cats are on Drugs. Craziness!

Speaking of party animals... Let's talk about sophisticated - upscale - exclusive! Oh, la la la la la la! C'est chic! C'est magnifique! FBI director Kash Patel's favorite hangout... one of the best places in Las Vegas... The Poodle Room. (Your precious tax dollars at work, folks.)

They've been sayin', "You're sophisticated". They're complainin', overeducated. You are saying all the words I'm dreaming. Say it after me... The Adults Are Talking - a song by rock band The Strokes. BASEBALL!! ⚾️ Casablancas scores!!! Yay! 😊

maandag 20 april 2026 It's a fantasy - adventure - muscle marathon. Our peplum heroes: Maciste, Atlas, Hercules, Spartacus and Kindar. A legendary strongman (Gordon Mitchell) battles an evil queen and a one-eyed monster in Atlas Against The Cyclops. They're always testing the hero's strength.

Hercules vs the Barbarians. Our hero (Mark Forest) must rescue a beautiful princess from Genghis Khan and protect Poland from the Mongols. Hercules vs the Black Pirates. This time Alan Steel is the Hercules figure fighting pirates to rescue a kidnapped girl and stop the villainous Black Corsair. Next: Challenge of the Gladiator. I'm wondering how Peter Lupus got involved in peplum. Treacherous Roman senator Lucius Quintilius plans a secret journey into Thrace to recover a legendary treasure. Spartacus and his band of rebels capture the treasure for Thrace. At last, Kindar the Invulnerable. Mark Forest is back to play the hero Kindar.

zondag 19 april 2026 Corruption in the Galaxy? Quelle surprise! Allen explains power and leadership. This is a Huge problem for the Empire.

Bread and Circuses. Televison was the colloquial term. Zombie. Zombie. Zombie-ie-ie ie. April 2026... more valid than ever.

zaterdag 18 april 2026 Dream: Artemis III takes a cat into space with them. Could it be a Flerken? They made a special space suit for it.

Dr. McCoy: It seems they're bisexual, reproducing at will. And brother, have they got a lot of will. Watch Star Trek: The Trouble with Tribbles. Tribbles: (Polygeminus grex) are small, non-intelligent lifeforms originating from the Iota Geminorum IV system.

Cyrano Jones: Once this lovely little lady starts to show this precious little darling around, you won't be able to keep up with them. Stanley Adams is probably best known for his guest appearance as the space peddler Cyrano Jones in the tribble episode. Adams also played a safecracker in Roger Corman's High School Big Shot (1959).

It's 77°F. Got in a decent bike ride before the rain came. Good timing.

How to say "I love you" in French. Je t'aime. Merci beaucoup, Pierre.
