I am happy all 40 wickets did not fall yesterday. How could they with only 74 overs? Jeez. Onward to day 2. @cricketaustralia.bsky.social @ecbcricket.bsky.social

The hat is from Québec. The jacket is from New York. The wine is from Australia. The snow is from Kentucky. The old man is from California via too many stops to mention. ❄️

This is how semi-retirement looks. Back at work this week and next. Then off for two. Then back Christmas week. Then off for three. Then back for Pegasus week. Then off through February. And yes, new podcasts every Friday. It is stop-start hibernation. Geezerdom ain’t all bad.

I am going with the old-school cap for the start of The Ashes tonight. Tonight, that is, in the U.S. C’mon, Aussie, c’mon. Remind me to shoot these photos earlier in the wine.

I make mistakes, too. Boy, do I ever. But this one keeps coming up.
The Los Al Futurity is not a @kentuckyderby.bsky.social championship-series prep. Even if it is a walkover, the winner gets the full 10 points.
The reductions would come only in the 50- and 100-point races and the Lex.

Has it really been 56 years since Gloria kicked Felix out of the house? The show premiered in the fall of 1970, thus this would have been set the year before on Nov. 13, 1969.
Narrator: Bill Woodson of “frozen tundra” Ice Bowl fame.

Hey, @wdrbnews.bsky.social. What happened to the first 30 seconds of the 4th quarter? The break after the third quarter lasted 3 min 15 sec. I believe it is supposed to be 2 min 45 sec. There was a station in Pittsburgh that oversold NFL games and paid dearly for it. #karma @nflonfox.bsky.social

You know you are old when you remember TV weather reporters writing backward on glass maps.
Honorable mention goes to those roped lavaliers, which are replicated now by the unsightly fur balls posing as modern microphones.

Semi-retirement. It looks a lot like vacation, except it will be more frequent. ’Til death do us part.

OTD 2️⃣0️⃣ years ago I was there atop the Bank Stand at Flemington where, as the great Greg Miles called it, “a champion becomes a legend.” Makybe Diva’s Melbourne Cup 3️⃣-peat is among the top 1️⃣0️⃣ sports moments I attended.

17 million of us watched 40 years ago tonight when Orson Welles introduced the greatest episode of television ever. Affectionately and enthusiastically I say this episode of ”Moonlighting” was ... behind its time.
