I'm actually enjoying the coverage of the field work on the Braves game. I was a Field Director for girls softball for 8 years. I always appreciated all the Dads that showed up to help when it rained. We got it done. They all had their specialty.

There were really only two movies I stood in line to buy tickets for. The first release of Star Wars with my brother in '77. And then again in '97 with my nephew. I wanted him to experience it like I did. So I didn't mind the line. May the Fourth be with you

Many times I tuned into TCM just to see what Robert Osborne had to say in his intro. And sometimes the only reason I watched it was because of what he said. I have a Robert Osborne bobblehead. An Icon.

We hijacked a bus back in '96 at the Atlanta Olympics. After waiting for an hour with no buses arriving for our venue (Baseball game), the crowd that had gathered went up to a driver and told him to take us to the stadium. He finally agreed and we all got on. We had to tell him how to get there.

Back in the early '80s we played D&D and when it was my brother in law's turn-He created a scenario where our quest was to capture the Atlanta Child Murderer. The locations were Underground Atlanta and the sewers beneath the city. We never found him, but it was my most memorable D&D quest.

One of my favorite Noir films with a great cast. Love Lucille Ball in this one. And the dialogue is salted with baseball references.

Thanks for this. I will be watching it several times today with my 3D glasses. Just what I needed. And I plan on sharing with anyone who will watch it with me.

Back in the '80's a local cinema was showing "House of Wax" in 3D. They handed out the 3D glasses and it was quite impressive on the big screen. It really looked like that ball was coming right at you in the bolo paddle scene. I wish they would show the 3D version on TCM. I have my3D glasses ready.

For Halloween I recommend "Matinee". John Goodman in a highly underrated film about a William Castle type filmmaker. The movie within the movie is "Mant" with an appearance by William Schallert. Great cast. Jesse White in his final role. youtu.be/0GmhD-MnoQM?...

If America had a Mom, she would probably be June Lockhart. Lockhart grew from child player to ingenue in supporting roles in "A" pictures and leads in "B" movies. We remember the actress who passed away over the weekend. Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

I once toured Atlanta’s 175-year-old Oakland Cemetery with a friend. Were struck by how many families lost multiple children within days of each other. We realized it was due to the lack of vaccines. And this kooky, lying moron wants to take us back to those days. RFK Jr. should resign.

It's been a tough year to watch the Braves. So, for the next couple of weeks, I will be watching Little League World Series #LLWS instead. #kidBAll is the best kind of Baseball anyway. Start watching the regionals. Learn your players. It makes the whole thing so much fun.

I was rereading an old blog article of mine about a black hole called RX J1140, one that appears to be eating matter faster than we can explain. I really like what I wrote about it, and I'm not above self-horn-tooting, so I'm sharing. Just a thing to keep in mind. Alt text has the words.

Text from an article I wrote: Mysteries don’t disturb scientists too much, but for some reason a lot of media think the word “mystery” is synonymous with “impossible”. When we find objects like this, it’s distressingly commonplace to see headlines like, “Astronomers find a black hole that defies the laws of physics”. I know that’s meant to draw your attention, but it bugs me. The black holes are doing exactly what they’re supposed to do. It’s we who don’t understand the physics in detail well enough to understand all their behavior.

That may seem trivial, but the distinction is important. The headline implies a weakness in science, like scientists are a group of like-minded automatons who suffer from groupthink and can brook no unexplained behavior.

But the opposite is true. Do you know what the single most powerful word in science is?

“Yet”.

RX J1140 is weird, certainly, and behaves in ways we can’t explain. Yet. Give us time. We’ve only just started figuring the Universe out, and we’ve come a remarkably long way. But there’s no finish line! There’s always more to learn, and as we continue to explore we will continue to increase our understanding. That is the nature of science, and one of its many strengths.
