Bull Durham is probably at the top of my baseball movie list. Kinsella’s novels are among my favorite baseball reading I need to watch Bang the Drum Slowly sometime soon

So now we’re only allowed five pencils and American movies. Making America Grate again

Looking at his resume on Wikipedia he really hasn’t stayed long at any of his gigs as President of a university. 6 years is the average so 3 years does seem short even for him. Just seem like he’s constantly looking for the next job

Jonathan Last (JVL) recently wrote about a New York Magazine article on John Fetterman. Concern from staffers about his mental condition since his stroke. What got me was this part Substitute Trump for Fetterman and see how it plays. Especially since at least the follow-up to the 2020 election

All these cardinals are total losers. One of them, a big burly man with tears in his eyes, came to me the other day and said sir, you should be pope. You’d be the best pope, because popes until now have been weak. I would be a great pope, like you’ve never seen before. Did you know popes go back over 1,000 years? Nobody knew that.

I’m gonna keep my name, Donald Jesus Trump. This will all happen soon, very soon, in about two weeks.

Somebody needs to propose that Congressional and Cabinet salaries be tied to Social Security. These critters have enough under the table sponsors to live on 1660 a month

The guy whose dad paid for 5 deferments wants a HUGE parade and turnout from people he's called suckers

Re: Faux News. Several years ago pre COVID I had a customer come to the information booth at the McNamara's DTW Terminal and asked why the airport was showing CNN on their video screens. I told him it was probably because CNN outbid Faux for the rights to do so. He was flummoxed
