The Supreme Court endangers a 60-year-old rule protecting the right to strike, in Glacier Northwest v. Intern…

At the start of this century, many USA #bookstore chains went bust, among them Border's, Crown, B. Dalton, Waldenbooks. And even the mighty Barnes & Noble's was sinking

Dude, this is a bot account. All it does is provide her tweets to this platform. It has nothing to do with her she'll never see you or what you write here.

@danielpinkwater @datn @neilhimself cheap or not, it touched me deeply ❤️

@danielpinkwater @datn @neilhimself ❤️❤️❤️

She really is a lovely creature. BTW, I am glad to be able to say thank you for "Fish Whistle." Not only did "The Soul of a Dog" make me weep, but the title essay made me laugh for 10 minutes and so hard that I was grateful that I had been reading in the bathroom.

And now I'm going to wish you a happy holiday season and quit bugging you. Thank you for being here.

@danielpinkwater yeah, i thought I remembered that correctly. Thank you.
@danielpinkwater OMG I love Chicago. 🥰

@danielpinkwater l never knew that! Where was it?

My parents used to take me to the Clark theater when I was but a wee lass, back in the fifties. I loved that the titles changed every day and IIRC, it was always a double feature.

And then we'd walk over to Henricis for dinner, and up to State and Randolph to do a little shopping at that place on the corner that had lost their lease a gazillion years earlier and was always going out of business.

@danielpinkwater @neilhimself yep, there you are you handsome dog, you.
