Happy Opening Day of baseball season! Here's my annual post with an unusual version of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". This one is from Montreal, circa 1969, and it really swings! (ha) tinkertaylorsolerspiezio.substack.com/p/baseball-s...

This was originally a dig at both team’s mediocre relievers. Now it’s a testament that all pitchers are witches and/or demons!

Thirty years ago, Space Ghost: Coast to Coast confused and confounded. The writers would write and rewrite. The editors would edit and re-edit. Working with the smart and funny folks at Cartoon was tons of work but also tons of joy. Thanks, Atlanta Magazine. Honored to be a part of it all.

Whenever I’ve visited someone’s home in Italy, there were always these shoes by the door— ragged and beat-up, but looking so so comfortable. After years of searching, I finally found my own pair (this pic) and I will probably/definitely talk about them at length the next time you see me.
Beautiful shoes
