Pernell Whitaker died on this day in 2019. Olympic and world champion boxer. Arguably the greatest athlete the state of Virginia ever produced, and that includes Bruce Smith, Moses Malone, and Allen Iverson.

Nothing quite annoying like a pressure washer with pretty good psi, but not enough. Mine’s in the shop. Got a rental.

Podcasts I won’t listen to: comparing the US to late period Rome. While both confronted/confront economic issues, external threats, disease, and climate change, the circumstances are far different.

Watching an Aussie WW1 movie “William Kelly’s War”. Title character’s mom sounded like Chilli on Bluey, but really ticked off. She was lecturing a govt official.

Watched a low budget sci-fi movie. “Cosmos”. Pretty much just hard science in a first contact situation. Highly recommend though it’s slow to start

Remembering Some Football Teams: 1991 Miami. Great speed. Very good offense. Had limited size on the front line and had problems with teams with big, powerful offensive lines (Penn State and Bama).

What’s the best episode of tv you’ve ever watched? I’m splitting it between regular network tv and the boutique offerings of today. Magnum PI- Did You See The Sunrise? Andor - season 1 finale

Colton Brewer of the Cubs is out for 60 days with a broken hand. Punched a wall after giving up runs. I don’t know if that’s addition by subtraction in the bullpen, but good golly…this is one of the more annoying Cubs teams in watching them for 30

Over in the international section at Publix, and all I can do is say: “Why Britain, why?” (I know these are labeled Ireland)

I’m not surprised to see Labor win, but more that the Tories will take less than 140 seats.

Paul Rhodes, former Iowa Steak coach, is now a DC in Alabama HS football. Anyone got the old gif of him on the sideline where it looks like he’s playing air guitar?

4 hours and 10 minutes from BHM to Fairhope with one stop on a holiday weekend. I must have sacrificed something good to the Highway Gods

Some commentator said that if democracy is to survive in this world, it has to win in the USA and India. Voters in India did a big thing by not giving the BJP a majority in the parliament. It’s on us now.

Saw - both the movie itself and the genre of horror it represents Legends of the Fall - romantic baloney. Backstabbing the family The 300 - way to glorify the world’s first proto-fascists. Also just ridiculous. That’s really about it.
What are four films you don't just dislike, but despise? I had to work for this. The first was easy, but after that I just tend not to dwell on the movies I dislike enough to truly hate them. I also don't watch stuff I know I'll hate. It's easier when they represent something despicable. #FilmSky📽
