Random baseball fact: Only 4 presidents have presided over their hometown team winning the World Series: Teddy for the 1st Giants win, FDR for '33 and all the Yanks titles, Reagan & the Dodgers, and Obama & the Cubs. Only Nixon & Truman could count home states, but not home teams.

Watching Jaws for the umpteenth time, and every time I do I wonder how it is that, in less than a minute, Brody goes from telling his kids to stay off the swingset to Ellen and Sean playing on it together. I know it's boomers parenting Gen X and all, but jeeeez!

Now that this four day weekend of mine is up, so are my legs, because I've put almost 17 hours and 10+ miles on them since I got home from work on Friday. Probably still won't lose a gorramned ounce. :(

I know I do a lot of genealogy & all, and I've run into it with people I'm related to. It still amazes me when you realize there is one alumnus of the Boston Beaneaters (aka the Braves) not accounted for. No one knows what happened to him after he left the team... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_S...

The lesson I'm learning from today's #TikTokPocalypse is that the second a form of social media goes mainstream, exploiters will use it to mess with you somehow. I don't know that there's a solution for this, but I do know that it should be a warning to use better methods of dissemination.
