PLANET VALENTI NEWS AND COMMENTARY

(FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE, MONDAY FEB. 3, 2025) — THE PLANET will be carrying out routine platform and security updates this weekend, something our tech guys so pleasantly reminded us about and that we so Fred McMurray-like forgot. Seems we need a little Flubber in our dashboards, a little high-tech dusting and vacuuming.

The good news is that the news happily coincides with THE PLANET‘s mid-winter break, where we shall retreat to hot climes hunting hot dogs while dodging groupies. In our passionate belief in “free speech,” the only local media that does, we shall keep The Comments Line open for everyone. Well, not “we” but our technical Picassos.

In short, ladies and gentlemen, you have the Talking Stick. Monitoring shall be in the hands of THE PLANET‘s AOR.

So sound off like you’ve got a pair, as Gunnery Sgt. Hartman, your senior drill instructor, would say.

Have a great week, everybody.

“The good thing about Flubber is its bounce-back rate” — Sir Donald Turpentine, Knight of the Bath.

“OPEN THE WINDOW, AUNT MILLIE.”

LOVE TO ALL.
