Saw Eephus today. Awesome, intimate movie about baseball, loss and change in small towns, tradition, and the quirky form of community men form through sports.
It's at The Ross in Lincoln until Monday.

I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey. As you know, my name is Marc, but my Hebrew name is Elhanan—after the warrior in David’s army who slew a powerful giant.

From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

The six (or eight) teams have yet to be announced.
Tickets will go on sale in the summer.
