Every time I do an Arthrosurface Hemicap, I encourage the residents to watch this movie. It's not the same as seeing it when you're seven but I hope they are still a little terrified.

"The Black Hole" - a boldly dark departure from Disney's usual material. I saw this via a pirate copy in the early 80s (thanks, dad) and unsurprisingly found it scary but exciting.
A retelling of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea with Nazi analogies. Maximilian Schell is perfect as Dr Hans Reinhardt. 👏

I still get a physical newspaper on Sundays.
My favorite part is giving them to players who look at you like "what is this thing you handed me?"
I tell them their parents will want to keep it.
Congrats, Jackson Jobe, on your first MLB win.
Your mom will have this forever.

The guy who did this awesome shoe shine at the MSP airport just asked me out of the blue if I have ever heard of "Harrison Bergeron."
It's one of my favorite short stories.
The world is an incredible place.

For the first time in nearly 15 years there are no Teslas in our driveway.
Today we sold her Model X and last week we sold my Model S.
A Macan EV and a Polestar 3 have upgraded our electric vehicle stable.
So glad to have much better EV choices than when I had to compromise to drive electric.

My favorite resident moment is finding a thing in clinic (e.g. positive "O'Brien's test" for AC joint pain) and asking "Are you surprised that this was abnormal in this patient?" Followed by.
