October 15, 1966. CBS aired the episode of Space Ghost/Dino Boy featuring the villains Brak and Sisto. Brak was voiced by actor Keye Luke. So, it’s Brak’s 60th anniversary today.

Republicans Don’t Know Ball Update: A hockey blogger asked the two Michigan Senate candidates for statements on the Red Wings. Rogers: blah blah Michigan loves the Red Wings El-Sayed: angry rant about how the cheap owners MUST pay Detroit’s young star defenseman octopusthrower.com/what-each-mi...
"Hockeytown, USA will always be a coveted destination for the world's top players,"
Rogers said. "The Detroit Red Wings boast one of the league's most storied and respected histories, dating back to their days as one of the Original Six franchises.
Few professional organizations can match the tradition, legacy and rpestige that define this iconic franchise. GO WINGS!""I was at the game when Darren McCarty took on Claude Lemieux," El-Sayed said.
"The '97 and '98 Stanley Cup championships are still highlights of my childhood. The teams the last few years have been a far cry from the Wings I came to love as a kid. They're stacking losing season on losing season, yet the llitch family's wealth has done nothing but grow.
Michiganders are sick of sky-high ticket and concession prices buying them nothing but disappointment."The team holding out on Simon Edvinsson is just the latest example in a long series of ownership prioritizing their bottom line over the team and the fans. Our teams aren't just assets for billionaires, they're part of our culture and heritage. Hockeytown deserves better."

Twice this year I have been involuntarily involved in passionate discourse about the Michael Jackson biopic: once at the checkout, once at the barbershop. Apparently he had a REALLY bad childhood. (I noted politely that "authorized biographies are never interesting" and left it at that.)

Robert De Niro as Ace Rothstein, smoking a cigarette in a coral pink jacket with cream pocket square in a crown fold. His shirt and tie match each other in a lighter carnation pink and might as well be from the same fabric.

it may come as no surprise that they look terrific in HD. some of the eps are Not Great, esp in S3 (Spock's Brain, Way to Eden, both of which I will stick up for as good premise badly executed), but perhaps better them than the boring ones (Alternative Factor? The one where the crew gets cubed?)

EV sales in the U.S. are down by half compared with last year. Meanwhile, charging companies in the U.S. are on track to install about as many public EV plugs this year as in 2025, the industry’s record high. www.wsj.com/business/aut...
