Everyone knows the only good baseball team Britain ever produced was the London Kings, and that’s 300 years in the future.

Skubal gets homered first pitch by Great Britain.

Embarrassing!

This dumb bar has hockey or whatnot on.

My week has been filled to the brim and I told a friend I was sad I was missing the Classic (World Baseball) and while I was in the bathroom he ordered me a High Life and a shot of bad bourbon, called the Classic at this jawn. I declined to explain.

Er. Happi*er*.

That had like 15 feet of arc! Frank Robinson shit, that play.

Right into my, er, sternum.

Ravens taking it to the Maxx.

Baltimore Sports looking up, and our greatest enemy is an old one: Injuries.

(Knocks all the wood)

Thank you!

Norway looks fun.

Still have the moobs tho. 🤷🏼‍♂️

That was literally the last time I was tan.

I gave my notice at work yesterday and the three managers are *noticeably* more hostile/aggressive toward me today.

Suck to be them!

You look good!

🤣🤣🤣

My aunt randomly mailed me this picture she found of a young me. I’m crying laughing. Also: *not my dolls.*

Also not sure if that’s the second person who wants people to watch Peter Pan or the only person who wants people to watch Peter Pan 2.

I love when I get a notice like “watchpeterpan2 has added you to their block list.” When I haven’t posted anything in a while. Like…okay, sure!

More like Kristi Noemore, amirite guys?

Not not my age, the number of people on Earth who’d seen it.

Lots of Lewis antics played for laughs. At the end he realizes the kids are being led to their deaths and in a final act of clear non-defiance he leads a group in and shuts the door behind him. We are supposed to feel *sad* for him.

It’s maybe the most misguided film I’ve ever seen. It’s real bad.

I should back up. Because I forget people don’t know about it, although there was a documentary that came out last year on it I highly recommend.

Lewis plays a German/Polish professional clown pressed into service in a camp to entertain children as they are led to gas chambers during WWII.

That Spy Magazine article was the *only* research about the film in existence at the time I found before I went. A dozen people had seen it when that article came out. I easily was in the low teens when I saw it.

There was no soundtrack or score over it, but no soundtrack or score could bury the ham-handedly maudlin way Lewis approached this. I really think he thought he’d get an Oscar for this. But it is as bad as the legends let on. Harry Shearer saw it, and his review for Spy Magazine is spot on.

It is decidedly not good. It is incredibly cringey. The film “Life is Beautiful” *had* to be inspired by it (and perhaps “Jakob the Liar”), but it’s real bad. Like, unbelievably bad. Lewis is too hammy. The dialogue is atrocious. And the end is…awful (he leads children to the oven and goes with).

I also met Russian international money launderers at a bar and had my life threatened. This all occurred over three days there.

I have been told I should write a book.

I recently got a call from an old law partner because Columbia Studios’ archive unit wanted to speak to me. While in Nauru I was mistaken for an Australian government official and taken to a post-9/11 black site (their Guantanamo), and nearly got arrested when it turned out I wasn’t.

I traveled to a small island nation of Nauru on a legal matter to retrieve a print of the Jerry Lewis film “The Day the Clown Cried” over 20 years ago and at the time I was one of maybe 20 people in the world to have seen the movie (or what there was of it). I signed an NDA which expired in 2024.

The other one is technically Captain James Landing.
