We have a sign height ordinance but older signs can be grandfathered in, even if the business changes--*as long as the size and shape of the sign is not changed*. So Schlotzsky's has repurposed this old Hardee's happy star to keep the tall sign. Only now it looks like a sombrero.

A great drive and a worthy winner. Congratulations to Alex Palou. #Indy500

I'm going to throw up if this becomes a shootout between Palou and Newgarden. #Indy500

Man. Gutted for Rossi. He had a rocketship. #Indy500

Happy place #Indy500 #SWVista #Turn1

Why is the Goodyear blimp at the #Indy500, one of the most Firestoney events in the world?

Gal Gadot comes up frequently in the New York Times crossword. Every time she does, I'm reminded of what a marvelous Wonder Woman she is, how undignified it was to drag her through the godawful WW1984, and how sad I am that we probably won't get any more Wonder Woman films with her.

About time. Tim Cindric should have been fired last year. wtop.com/sports/2025/...

I remember the beautiful, joyous bear hug Josef Newgarden received from team co-owner Sarah Fisher following his first career victory at Barber in 2015. He was so excited. She was too. It was touching. That guy was easy to pull for. Sigh. #Indy500

Breakfast at Tacky Jacks in Fort Morgan is a longstanding family tradition.

Josef Newgarden "won" the 2024 #Indy500 with a similarly illegal attenuator. That win should be forfeited. And it's absolutely time to fire Tim Cindric. He shouldn't have kept his job after last year's debacle. #PenskePerfect

I wonder how long "Penske perfect" has really just meant a culture of cheating? #Indy500

The Huntsville area lost some of its best burgers with the closings of ToyBox Bistro and Anaheim Chili (though the Serrano Burger followed Scott from AC to Nash's in Guntersville, so put that in your pocket). Straight to Ale has a pretty good one. Where is your favorite Huntsville burger?

Young white men. You are not entitled to sex. You are not entitled to anyone else’s body. Grow the fuck up.

How do you like your live music? https://ithinkthatwasbo.com/2025/05/13/how-do-you-like-your-live-music/

One foot in front of the other...

Was any of it real? What's the endgame?

The 3800 abides.

Why do so many TV shows suddenly have so many executive producers in the credits?

Back to Del Taco after a 39-year hiatus https://ithinkthatwasbo.com/2025/05/06/back-to-del-taco-after-a-39-year-hiatus/

Great look just now, but you're doing the casual fan a disservice not pointing out that the steering wheel is highly customized to each driver's preferences and no two are alike, @foxsports.com.web.brid.gy. #IndyCar #Barber

Onscreen scoring isn't updating consistently, @foxsports.com.web.brid.gy #IndyCar #Barber

God bless Sammy Hagar for enabling the retirement that Michael Anthony deserves.

Alex Palou is a good guy, but I'm experiencing a bit of fatigue here. Last happened with Franchitti. #IndyCar

As of seven or so hours ago, my daughter has more degrees than I do. It'll be four to one before she's done. I couldn't be prouder.

Mia is about to receive her BA in Philosophy with a minor in Neuroscience, as well as her BS in Psychology. Her mother and I are so, so proud. She is headed to graduate school in the fall, right back here at the Capstone. #summacumlaude #RollTide

I hope there is a dispensed ticket for every single empty seat in Coleman Coliseum tonight. What a disgusting human being.

Look at this beautiful artwork my friend Lois painted for me for my birthday! I love it! Thank you! So happy to have my #Soroptimist friends. Let's do great things together this year!

No idea what the story is, but it might be a good one...

Kamala was not my favorite. She got my vote because I believed she was a grown-up and I trusted her not to hurt my daughter. I can say neither of these things about our current president.

Soon my son will be an actuary. His current and ever-strengthening command of advanced mathematics amazes me.

First time back to #DelTaco in almost 39 years. Full report coming this weekend.

A truly excellent farewell to one of the greatest musical giants of the past century. I was sure this would be some sappy ballad, and it's so not. Outstanding work, Sammy, Joe, Michael, and Kenny. Bravo!

It doesn't matter what the rest of the sentence says, the opening 10 words in themselves are the scandal: "President Trump on Thursday directed the Justice Department to investigate ... "

I have this little joke with myself whenever I see a Marriott property going up in my hometown. I think "whew, there's a place I can stay with points if I ever get thrown out." (I think my chance of ever being thrown out is extremely remote.)
