New shirt, same old Jonesy.

I've got The Big Book of Science Fiction - wish I had a ginger on my lap too.

Looks idyllic, tbh.

OK, that one was from a couple of weeks ago. I wouldn't normally post two of myself so close together, but this one was from a couple of hours ago, with newest family member Bugsy.

Good posting

the cat sat on the hat <3

amazing cat blanket

BUGSY

bugsy seems to be acclimating well

He lives the life he loves, he loves the life he lives. Jonesy's cool with the new guy, Teddy's jealous because he isn't the baby anymore.

haha, aww. you gotta love that honeymoon period when you get to stand on the top of your new friend's head

If we ever have a transatlantic mod meetup I'm gonna try to recreate that pose.

hahahaha, I'm game

I have a Jonsey too, she's a tortoiseshell tho'

Oh, why didn't you say we were posting pictures of our cats climbing us?

Love seeing pics of ilx0rs together, it warms my cold cold heart.

A month ago, pre-haircut...

We went to Costa Rica, and I wore my podcast shirt.

Nice. I also like the look of your coffee drink.

My sister and husband were flying off to Costa Rica a couple of days ago and got caught up in all sorts of delays and grief changing at Houston Airport - hope you had better luck, mike.

Yeah, no problems for us, as we changed planes in Amsterdam and avoided the US completely. Costa Rica is our new favourite country. What a place!

> A month ago, pre-haircut...

there's a guy, most be from one of the soaps, who is on the cover of tv choice like once a month and every time i catch it out the corner of my eye i wonder why there's a picture of mike on the coffee table. this week he appears to be <orange>LEFT FOR DEAD!</orange>

(on page 46 he's lying on the road in front of a car, so he may not be long for this world. cain, it says. emmerdale)

Being mistaken for someone on the cover of TV Choice… it’s all downhill from here.

I did wonder which Mike that was!

here's a few of us

it's myself, LL, and I believe Josh in Chicago?

<3

ah man I can't see imgur images!

Me neither: imgur has been blocked in the UK for several months now.

(Evil thought: maybe I should start FP-ing imgur embeds... hmmm, tempting!)

Someone recommended postimg.cc, which is what I've been using. However, I've had to look up what it's called every time I use it.

Not me! But shoot me a line next time you come down, lol.

wait.....I think its jon/via/chi...close :)

once there were two magician movies

i have that same mariners hat, nobody in the midwest seems to have any idea what it is compared to wearing a tigers hat in the northwest

yes, tis me. that was after the very excellent Michael Rother show.

WDYLL on a local TV station's podcast talking about the school system banning Alex Haley's Roots, with a few strands of hair awkwardly dangling across your forehead

While I'm here: we've just added to our family. Meet Dash, the dashing dachshund. (I'm on the right.)

Tipsy, as someone who has to spend hours and hours and hours editing podcasts, may I say that your articulacy is an editor's dream, stray forelock be damned!

Aw thanks! I've been doing TV and radio spots now and then for years as "reporter to provide context," so I've slowly gotten better at delivering what the medium wants. Except the hair lol.

Happy Pride month, all!

you look grebt

all the stuff on the wall is way too large

why are you amidst a new-york-state joint?

Was just doing some travelin' and in my spare time plotting to put Trump away once and for all. Like Dylan sang, even the President of the United States has to pay his parking tickets...

a free two-hour time slot? fleetwood mac’s smash hit “everywhere”? a bald eagle! sign me up for whatever payment plan makes the most sense for my financial situation!

Two hours, yeah--our town's program is fantastic (and draws people from miles away). The woman who filmed it (she's the library's summer program coordinator) chose the music--love it.

:) very cool. looks beautiful too. did they pay you in pizza?

My payment was the saddest currency in the world: likes on Facebook.
