I have few restrictions on what I'll accept on your Facebook feed. I rarely unfriend. But if you post serious crap about worshipping Satan, or use the n-word - the full six letter version - buh bye. I dropped two people today.

A League of Their Own turns 25

I went to see it with my sister Katie at Skyway (that's the one that used to be across from the airport, right?) We took the bus and on the way home stopped at a baseball card shop.

Still relatively new to baseball, I asked about Jimmy Dugan - Tom Hanks character - and he didn't ring a bell with the shopkeeper. I wasn't surprised, as I guessed it had been a fictionalized character. Had it been a year or two later, I would have figured out that Dugan was loosely based on slugger Jimmie Foxx.

I took a break from the Bible to read this medical thriller by the great F Paul Wilson. It's a good read and a not so subtle slam on socialized medicine.

Why Disney?

Disney is removing the infamous “bride auction” scene from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.

What? Why? Because it isn't PC? That stuff happened. Quit putting your head in the sand.

LOL LuLu

Overheard while waiting for the camp bus to unloaded the kids this evening: LuLu: "Listen up! I want to get home and take a nap, so sit in the your seats until you're called so we can get this done!"
