This is the #Spreckels mansion which I recently walked by in San Francisco. Adolph Spreckels' wife Alma coined the phrase "Sugar daddy."

On a recent trip to San Francisco, I walked by the #Spreckels Mansion. It's owned by #DanielleSteel. Maybe I should have become a #romance novelist.

Gorgeous. My dad climbed it when he was a Boy Scout.

In 1933, #Göring took over the #Prussian police force. He did not stop there.

I recently drove through the Central Valley. Nothing but Anglo guys in suits working in the fields and vineyards. Amazing.

When I get down --- which is pretty often these days, I play #ABBA. Is that just me? www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQsj...

Yes. Why is this allowed to continue? This criminal administration is alienating our allies, destroying our international standing, and isolating us in this world. Where are our lawmakers? They have the authority and the ability to stop it NOW. Why are they impotent? #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

I've read some of his books. He is the best. You are right, we need to listen to him.

I'm working on a new song -- keep in mind that it's a work in progress: "I shot the Tariff, But I didn't shoot the Duty Free..."

Looking for a weekend read? My new suspense novel "Under a Secret Sky" tells the story of how an American family was affected by the Cold War. www.amazon.com/Under-Secret...

An inauguration is NOT a coronation. The president takes the oath of office, there's a dance at the White House featuring a local bar band doing Hall and Oates and Motown covers, maybe a couple hip hop tunes from "Hamilton". Everyone gets drunk, throws up and goes home..

You don't even need to be lost in the rain in Juarez to see it.

There may or may not be #UFOs in my new novel "Under a Secret Sky." You can find it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble on-line

They stop when you send them money and a plane ticket.

Pete Davidson is involved somehow.

This will sound pretentious, but Truffaut is one of only two people I have introduced myself to. It was in the lobby of the Beverly Hills hotel, he was sitting alone, looking sad and I told him I loved his work, and he had been a huge influence on me. He smiled and nodded politely.
