Had a chance to chat about AI in advertising with @wxyzdetroit’s @sarahamichals & Mike Glover. We should all look at AI as a tool that frees us up to do things that could never be done before. To let us do more work we love & less of what drags us down. wxyz.com/news/a-i-week-job-c…

Oh no!! Fire in the building that houses Supino Pizza here in Eastern Market. Impressive @DetroitFire response. Hoping the best for our office neighbors.

Update: Smoke has cleared. Looks like the fire was in apartment above Supino. It is a truly impressive thing to see how quickly and professionally the Detroit Fire Department works.

Things seem under control above Supino. Here’s the view from where my car was parked.

The @tigers didn’t win this Opening Day, but — once again — the owners of Detroit’s surface parking lots sure did. Here are a few before & after shots of parking prices at lots along East Lafayette (Tuesday evening vs. Thursday morning). #openingday #OpeningDayDET

Don Shane was the real deal. A local TV legend. A true mensch. Thinking about time spent with him, there are so many moments that make me smile. So many stories that revealed his competitiveness and his caring nature. And so many times he helped me out when he didn’t have to.
Longtime Channel 7 sportscaster Don Shane has died at the age of 70, 7 Acton News has learned. Don spent 23 years at WXYZ and no one had more fun on the air or covering our local teams. wxyz.com/sports/longtime-cha…

"These are not, like, the nine greatest experts on the internet." That's an accurate self-assessment from Justice Kagan that made me laugh earlier while listening to the Supreme Court's live oral arguments around this Section 230 case. It's a somewhat frustrating listen.

With the @Eagles in the Super Bowl, this Philly native was thrilled to go on the local news to talk about the game. Oh. Wait. I'm probably more qualified to just chat about the commercials. You can watch the clip from @Local4News & @nickmonacelli here: youtube.com/watch?v=AXcZSndh…

Saw the coolest thing this morning: All of the lights at Comerica Park are being swapped out by a helicopter that’s hovering over the Detroit @tigers ballpark. This photo from my office window doesn’t do it justice. I drove by along Woodward & the lights are in the parking lot.

Huge congrats to my friend & former colleague, The Great Dave LewAllen (@tvnewzguy), who celebrated 35 years at @wxyzdetroit today… And also announced a well-earned retirement starting soon. (Oh, and he has some archival gems on YouTube when you need a throwback pic like this.)

Exactly 12 years ago, my old @wxyzdetroit crew & I brought together Detroiters we’d met on Twitter for in-person beers & free t-shirts. TV news anchors & reporters chatted w/people who consumed local news. Friendships were forged. Sources, too. It was magical. This ending is sad.

Thank you to my coworkers, friends & brand new Twitter buddies who made tonight's @wxyzdetroit #backchannel tweetup so wonderful.

10 years ago tonight, I was bummed by the end of a disappointing @tigers World Series run that also meant Aretha wouldn’t sing to start Game 5. Now, this native Philadelphian hopes for a big @Phillies win & a @JustinVerlander performance tonight that matches his 2012 Game 1 bomb.

🌭🌭🍟 After two with everything and a side of fries, I’m pleased to report that Lafayette Coney Island is just as wonderful as always – even after that little cleansing sabbatical. #teamlafayetteforever

Jessica Fletcher was the coolest. Her 2nd career as a mystery writer brought her immense fame and she somehow found herself in the midst of murder investigations from Cabot Cove, ME to destinations all over the world. Angela Lansbury brought her to life & made me a lifelong fan.

The episodes that came after Jessica moved from a typewriter to a computer are also fantastic, but as a celebration of Angela Lansbury's amazing life, I suggest a few favorite 'Murder, She Wrote' episodes from the early seasons...

Van Lear Rose. That's the Loretta Lynn album playing in my office right now. Saw her live in the summer after the Jack White-produced album came out. She didn't like the sound. Asked the audience for a handkerchief, then sang with that over the mic all night. Old school.

People of Detroit: DO NOT SLEEP on our city’s amazingly creative opera. I saw The Valkyries today. Not your grandparents’ opera (unless your grandparents were video game designers). We are so lucky to have @yuval_sharon & team here. Last show is Tues. Go!! detroitopera.org/season-sche…
