The old "Untouchables" series with Robert Stack. The use of Walter Winchell as the narrator was genius. I'm rewatching it on DVD. They certainly stretched the truth, but it makes for good entertainment.

Like the Zodiac murders, it's difficult to believe that there is no way to make a DNA match after all these years. In some cases, that is because the labs are backed up for years. What could be more important than solving mass murders? We waste billions on all manner of nonsense but not on...

I can't believe that no one in the government keeps track of classified information. Officials can apparently be given such materials, take them home, and never return them. And no one ever asks them to be returned or even apparently realizes that they are unaccounted for. Even the local...

Great to see Ohtani give a good natured high five to a Padres fan who apparently had heckled him for the entire game after hitting a moon shot HR. Maybe he didn't understand half of what the guy was saying but instead of losing his cool and complaining like many crybaby athletes, he made it a...

The media spinning the search of John Bolton's home for classified material as political retaliation after they celebrated a similar search of Trump's home. It turns out Bolton submitted his book manuscript for a security review as he was required to do back in 2020 but it was taking too long...

Preseason games are brutal. Even in a sport saturated culture, I can't imagine anyone wasting five minutes on these games. The Rams basically fielded a team of guys who will never play in the NFL.

The Dodgers have scored two runs in two games against the Padress losing both games. They are now two games behind them in the standings and dropping like a rock.

This one looks interesting: Deadwood: Gold, Guns, and Greed in the American West by Peter Cozzens. "Sifting through layers and layers of myth and legend—from nineteenth-century dime novels like Deadwood Dick, to HBO prestige dramas to the casino billboards outside of present-day...

Idiots that don't slowdown in school zones or drive on the bumper of a school bus. Unreal and reckless. And there are more than a few. Try slowing down to 15 MPH while driving through a school zone in the morning when the kids are arriving at school and the folks behind you go nuts. Some...

I don't necessarily begrudge anyone from making lots of money. Certain artists like Kiss were marketing geniuses and never portrayed themselves in way other than to put on a show. They didn't pretend to be anything that they were not. The reputations of other artists, however, is harmed by...

Big sweep of the Padres this weekend by the Dodgers. Kershaw was a part of that. Back on top.

After David Bowie died, they began to sell all manner of junk with his image and name on it. I think this is all authorized by his estate but it is embarrassing to see that level of exploitation. How much money do some folks need?

The laughable NCAA sanctions against Michigan. A fine and they can't hire Harblow back for ten years. As though that was ever going to happen. It took them almost two-years to formulate that slap on the wrist. Michigan was caught red handed in an intentional cheating scheme to steal signs...

Turning 60. When I turned 50 it seemed more traumatic. At 50 I suddenly felt old with a lot of windows in life closing. 60 feels more like a transitional stage to retirement. Not everything is up to me anymore. Kids are older. Time for other people to take on some of that responsibility...

The scene in "The Mothman Prophecies" where the mysterious Mothman calls Richard Gere and says "chapstick" over the phone. That one always makes me laugh. A good flick.

I always associate KISS with the 70s and 80s. Good times. Some great tunes and they always put on a show. I saw them a couple of times and my ears are still ringing.

The Dodgers are in a death spiral right now. The bullpen is blowing almost every game. They might pull out of the funk at some point but it's looking grim.

The idiots throwing adult toys on the court during WNBA games and the media hysteria about the idiots throwing adult toys on the court. Hard to tell which is worse. These imbeciles should be arrested. End of story. No 15 minutes of fame. I'm not sure why any numbskull would do this much...

I saw the first episode and it was hard to watch because of the trauma inflicted on the families. It's difficult to believe the depravity of individuals who commit such an act. Like they must belong to another species. Have to believe the perps were high on drugs and/or mentally ill...

The woke remodeling of the Cracker Barrel. Wow. They must be trying to drive themselves out of business. Cracker Barrels are full of old people who love it. You can't get in on the weekends. Enter a woke CEO who says this can't go on. They strip the place of its Americana character and...
