More baseball nostalgia
The Mets finally got a no hitter on June 1, 2012.
Music Monday
Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel … The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo. Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.
Are those games exciting or boring?
ReplyDeleteI’d say, if you appreciate the game, it’s exciting.
ReplyDeleteThe day Wells pitched his perfec game, I was in New Jerseyat my cousin’s bris. We had two possible routes going home from the bris. One route took us through the Bronx, right past Yankee Stadium. The other route took us down the east side of Manhattan.we decided to go home through Manhattan, because we thought there would be a lot of traffic in the Bronx because of the game.
Well, then-Vice President Al Gore was in town that day, nothing was moving because of his motorcade, we got caught in a massive traffic jam. We looked across the river, and there was no traffic at all in the Bronx.
No one was leaving Yankee Stadium until they knew the outcome of the game.
