every time I see an Angels highlight it's like "Mike Trout hit three homes runs and raised his average to .528 while Shohei Ohtani did something that hasn't been done since 'Tungsten Arm' O'Doyle of the 1921 Akron Groomsmen, as the Tigers defeated the Angels 8-3"

88 years ago today, the legendary Robert Johnson held his first recording session…
On November 23, 1936, in the quaint setup of Room 414 at the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas, Johnson laid down tracks that would later define the blues genre.

You can tell Donald Trump is from Queens because he’s pissing away his chances of winning anything this fall after a bad performance in Pennsylvania

TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY was released 33 years ago this week. Acclaimed as one of the great blockbuster action films, and among the best sequels ever made, it remains a hugely spectacular movie with a making of story to match…

I’m puzzling over the chief justice’s crucial but impenetrable fn 3 in the immunity ruling. It discusses when evidence of official acts can be admissible to prove crimes involving unofficial acts. I invite guidance/correction from lawyers, professors, & others ...

INDEPENDENCE DAY was released 28 years ago this week. An enormous box office hit and one of Hollywood’s biggest productions, the behind the scenes story is as spectacular as a spaceship blowing up the White House…

BACK TO THE FUTURE was released 39 years ago today. One of the most beloved movies of the 1980s, and the film that made Michael J. Fox a movie star, the behind-the-scenes story is pretty heavy…

Sid Sheinberg did not like the title Back To The Future and sent a memo to Zemeckis and Gale asking to change it to “Spaceman From Pluto.” Luckily, Spielberg stepped in. He replied with a memo that said: “Thanks for your humorous memo. We all got a big kick out of it.”

I think, 25 years later, it’s pretty goddamn safe to say that nobody made an entrance like Chris Farley.

Christopher Hitchens on Israel and Zionism:
"I think Zionism is a stupid idea to begin with, it's a bad idea, a Messianic idea, a superstitious idea. And it guaranteed a quarrel with the Arabs because it meant we're going to take away from you what is most precious, your land. It guaranteed an injustice to the Arabs which now anyone can see and is now entering its fourth generation of Palestinians brought up either in exile or dispossession or under occupation and humiliation, and now we know something has to be done to address what is part of the original sin."
"I've been writing in favor of a Palestinian homeland all my life, and I'm now no less or more in favor of it than I was before. It's a matter of principle."
"If Jews born in Brooklyn have a right to a state in Palestine, then Palestinians born in Jerusalem have a right to a state in Palestine. Anyone who doesn't agree with that principle is suspect."
"Everybody knows that if you want to occupy people against their will, if you want to be the governor of another people who haven't chosen you, you will end up visiting terrible cruelty on them. There certainly cannot be a humane occupation."
"I think the securely recognized borders should not allow for Israeli colonization or occupation of the territory of its neighbors, which is what it's doing now. The right to exist argument has been used now to the point where what it's going to mean is that the Israel you're talking about will include the annexed and illegally occupied West Bank."
"When George Bush senior said to the Israelis: If you go on like this I will ask Congress to suspend your loan guarantees, I thought that was extremely impressive, and so did everyone else in the Middle East. It led to the nearest we've ever had to a proper peace conference that was in Madrid. Bill Clinton chose to run that year from the right against Bush, saying that he thought Bush was being soft on Cuba, and also from the right on Israel, saying if he was President the Israelis would not be subjected to this kind of pressure.
So the last time that there was an impressive American policy it was a Republican administration, and it was undone by the hero of every liberal in this room."
