And then I got slammed in the gut by a line drive and my folks got gun shy about me and Dad gave up coaching as we moved to another town the following year. My relationship to physical fitness and "talent" got complicated after then.

I went out for U9 baseball but couldn't get going on it because my father, who was the team coach, couldn't make time to coach ME. I never knew if I had talent. I never got to build any skill. I never knew if my body could support any skill. Any success I had was just "good luck".

I'm glad my Madden Online days are long over. And my Gundam Network Taisen days. And my Chess days. You don't play games, you watch game shows.

That "ultimately binary" fallacy has done a lot of damage to our society over the decades. It isn't always about X versus Y.

Too many people I know are just fine with feel-good ripoff memes of Peanuts and Disney. I'd like to tell them no, but they won't listen.

Does anybody know if the Harmony Gold dub of Minky Momo is viewable anywhere online? I bought a VHS copy for my niece thirty years ago or so, and I don't believe I ever actually watched it myself. (I've seen later MM stories, though.)

The Vols didn't just lost, they got mathematically eliminated from both the National Championship and the Conference Championship in their first conference game of the season. That's worse than a jinx.

The place where I work plays it on the Muzak...but these days you have to take those "popularity" announcements with a grain of salt, because of the existance of bots driving up streaming counts. It's possible for a song to have billions of official "listens" but nobody listening to it.

A long time ago I had an ambition to do a show in that vein, but instead of horror I would go for stuff like hot rods, war, aviation, space, biker gangs, safaris and other things like that. By now I expect somebody's already done that.

Send good thoughts to my great friend Scott Olman, who the Dork Tower character Igor is based on. Following his leg amputation, he's undergoing hip replacement today. And if you could share (or even donate to) his GoFundMe, that would truly be worthy of a "HUZZAH!" www.gofundme.com/f/help-scott...
