“Mash” the button. And altar call. Tommy, your Southern (Baptist) roots are showing. And I love it! Congrats on a good year & wishing for many more (years, subscribers, books) ❤️
Congratulations! There was definitely a time when I would've thought it to be a utopian dream that you could write something and immediately have it transmitted to subscribers in 58 countries. It's not a complete utopia, but it never is.
Hmmm, a reward for a such a successful first year may call for a walk among the official keepers of the St Bernard breed in Switzerland, tax deductible for someone writing a book about dogs. Lonely Planet describes it as one of the best hikes in the world. https://fondation-barry.ch/EN/barry-foundation
Congratulations, Tommy. I've been with you from the first. I just had a reminder pop up on my phone yesterday asking me if I'm reading your blog. So the decision was to stay or go before I paid for another year's subscription. I'm staying!!!

Amen, sister :)
Happy Birthday!
Thank you bud!
You have one of the best newsletters out there IMHO, Tommy.
I love you, man. In a '60s kind of way. :)
ooooo I have a poet friend in North Dakota...
You know EVERYBODY.
Your newsletter (and your writing, in general) is so good. Love your style.
Thank you so much, Rebekah!

It'll never be a utopia. But there are some things that can be utopian. This place feels pretty good.
Thank you Tommy for an informative and fun year through your writings and wit!!
Thank you so much, Debbie! You bring so much joy to the world.
