Willie Mays passes away at 93.
Mays was always the most mythical to me of all those legends from the 50s and 60s, maybe because of the great black and white footage of him in centerfield and of course “The Catch.” His 660 career home run total was as memorable to me as 714 and 755.
I am “pinched a nerve washing the dishes” years old I guess.
Spent the morning in debilitating pain but now just in miserable unable to move or sit or lay down pain thanks to steroids and muscle relaxers.
Southwest Airlines is adding nonstop flights from Austin to Detroit for Texas fans traveling for Texas-Michigan game in September.
I’d be interested to know if any other airlines do this sort of thing or if it is unique to Southwest. Or maybe due to Austin being a really big but not THAT big city with lots of direct flights to places.
Smart Script for iPadOS 18 is going to make me think I can handwrite notes and draw again isn’t it?
I’ve already been 3 times, but the fact that the National Videogame Museum has added a Phantom by Infinium Labs to their collection has me planning another trip. How could I resist a chance to see the vaporware console and a Lapboard in person?
I feel bad for Alanis Morissette. I’m staring right at the dictionary definition of ironic/irony and I’m still completely unable to explain it properly to my 2nd grader.
Oh come on…
This new iPad Pro ad on Instagram just makes me wish Apple made a new iPod nano.
Wait… so do people who mispronounce gif and built websites in the early 2000s say “spacer jifs”? Ewww so gross.
What If…?: Season 2
Not quite as good as Season 1 and didn’t quite stick the landing after the great Kahorri and the 1602 episodes, but still a fun mix of stories with some good through lines. Looking forward to Marvel pulling Kahorri into some other MCU stories/movies.
Rating: 3.5 stars
