    Things that annoy me

    The problem was there were only 29 Park Police assigned to monitor thousands of protestors (from a report I heard). Police did try to intervene. I watched a video as they attempted to arrest of several protestors but the police themselves were being attacked. They were outmanned.

    US Army Armor & Calvary Collection

    The army moved all of the armor out of Ft Knox when they closed to armor museum there yrs ago. The museum was open to the public yr round when it was at Knox. The Infantry Museum at Ft Moore is amazing and well worth a vist.

    Bob Newhart RIP

    Bob Newhart passed away at age 94 yesterday. He was a great comedian and did many deadpan monologues. May he rest in peace trading jokes with his best friend Don Rickles.

    Things that annoy me

    Hope they do a better job than with the gun in the Alec Baldwin shooting. The FBI literally broke the pistol with a mallet. You can't make this up.

    Things that annoy me

    The only purpose I can see for SWAT/Tactical police units are to march about after a shooting with grim looking faces, decked out in tactical gear and rifles at port arms for a photo op. This after the Trump shooting.

    Regarding the assassination attempt, there are no competent Federal agencies anymore.

    Things that annoy me

    Used to spend part my of summers on Eastern Shore as a kid. Always thought I would own a vacation home around St Mary's and go crabbing in my retirement. Unfortunately, moved away after college and the dream never happened.

    Horizon

    Watched this one yesterday with one of my sons. A good but not great movie in our shared opinion, w K Costner. We both thought it tried too hard to be like Lonesome Dove with disparate plot threads. Not doing well at the box office, probably should have been released as a tv series, which...

    Lancer

    This very sad news. I recently thought about posting a MIA thread regarding Al as he had not posted on the baseball thread in a couple of months, quite unusual for him. Al and I attended University of Maryland at the same time although having 35K students, we never met. We often commiserated...

    Legends and Lies: The Patriots

    Looked fwd to this series but it's terrible. Kind of a docudrama with Kelsey Grammer lecturing on "what really happened" while he constantly looks off camera. Tried a few episodes but it's a lot of fiction, maybe that's where the "Lies" in the title applies. As an example, the episode about B...
