Hello, Pittsburgh

I have arrived in Pittsburgh. I haven’t been here since I came to see the Dead play in 1988. That was a pretty decent show, actually. Maybe a little too much Brent. Anyway, the city looks fantastic. It’s much nicer than I remember it. Of course, Philly is also much nicer than it was in 1988, as is Manhattan.

I see that the news cycle is still in a stupid and painful state. Maybe we will make some news worth reading here in Pittsburgh. Thank you to everyone who made a contribution towards this trip. I would not be here without you.
