In honor of Hispanic Heritage month I trot out my first book, on the great hall of fame manager and Tampa guy, Al Lopez. He was a class act and is sorely missed by those who knew him. #ElSen̈or

La Máxima - Junior Caminero. 39 HRs and 94 rbis with a week to go in August and he's barely 22-years old. I can't believe he plays for our team. @RaysBaseball #LaMaxima

Thanks, Mano. With a sequel in the wind, it's never a bad time to go to the origin. #BigGuava

Move to Tallahassee and find out where Summer lives. Hot shit in hell's anteroom. Dank haze draped from the trees. Where even a breeze is held for rich folks on the coast. Snakes, gators, mosquitoes, and ticks. Keep your dogs inside. Come get some. 😆

Thinking of this guy today, my "fucking major professor," the late eminent historian James Pickett Jones, Jr. Dr. Jones would have railed against Trump's sorry ass every moment of this term, just as he did during the first and until his final breath in June 2020. He was a beauty. #OldSchool

Having not read as much literary fiction, at least recently, as I should, John Williams's "Stoner" satisfied. It is brilliantly written, sad, uplifting, and sorrowful. How I went this long without reading it is beyond me. Don't let it happen to you.

Actor Walter Goggins may have recently found deserved heightened popularity - SNL, White Lotus, Righteous Gemstones - but to me, he remains Harlan County's elusive bomb-throwing chameleon, Boyd Crowder. #Justified

I read David Joy's Those We Thought We Knew a year ago and was moved. The author's recent appeal on Instagram has reinforced the impression. It is prescient and timely, taken during an era when we are told to ignore the truth and turn from history. It hits! Read it soon. @davidjoy.bsky.social
