Anyone else (try to) watch the Billy Joel special on CBS last night? Someone really screwed up and cut to local news during the middle of the last song that everyone wanted to hear -- Piano Man. The entire concert is on CBS but you have to jump thru a couple hoops to watch it.

I betting Scotty wouldn't be caught dead drinking a Corona.

Apparently it's trendy to get married during the eclipse. As a believer in Murphy's Law...

Quote from Astro: “Quote from hikerboy: “Quote from rhjanes: “Quote from LIhikers: “Today is gonna be a zero because of the rain. I guess I prove Matt-C's point. ” I checked Matt-C's YouTube. He's got a recent post about someone. It's talking about that dog that has been posted as missing on the AT, in Facebook 2024 hiker groups. ” Knucklehead Angry Guy is ranting about Ramdino, who's kind of become the news reporter for the AT on YouTube. And once again showing how little he knows about the AT.…

Quote from Astro: “Quote from max.patch: “You'll enjoy that room. I've done it once. Years ago my wife had a conference to attend in DC so we took Amtrak for the experience and got the room. Really nice and you get a much much better sleep than in the seats in coach. But the price -- ouch! You got a steal of a deal at an additional $160. Have a great hike. ” I would still take an Amtrak seat over one on a bus. ” I took the bus to Tucson once becasue they had a sale that made it incredibly cheap.…

You'll enjoy that room. I've done it once. Years ago my wife had a conference to attend in DC so we took Amtrak for the experience and got the room.

Just read in the local paper that the Cobb County Schools are going to make April 8 a half day. They don't want the liability of a kid staring at the eclipse during school hours. Business as usual at the Marietta City Schools. They're afraid some kids will be at home without parental supervision if they release them early. Everybodys afraid of something.

I really have no interest in the eclipse. The trust fund babies with their special expensive safety eclipse glasses have ruined it for me.

Quote from IMScotty: “Well the Red Sox won their opening day game against the Mariners. I might as well enjoy this bright moment in the season. I am not expecting there to be many for the Red Sox this year. They did nothing in the off season to improve from last year's last-place finish. Owner John Henry has closed his wallet. ” Things could be worse. You could be an Oakland fan. youtube.com/watch?v=DtXJ1a7NBCE

Some will watch it because it's a movie about hiker food. (Confession -- I eat pretty healthy but I bought this twice on my thru. And not since.) But I'll watch it for Seinfeld. May 3 on Netflix. youtube.com/watch?v=2lqRPUhPfho

Quote from LIhikers: “Got out today for a 3.47 mile walk in West Hills county park. ” As a numbers guy I appreciate the precision.

Quote from max.patch: “I finally got around to looking at the SI baseball preview so I could move the magazine from the coffee table to the recycling bin. In the team preview they made predictions for each team in 2030. Spoiler alert -- Tampa is moving to Charlotte in 2028 and led the league in attendance the first 3 years they were there. At the end they made a (tongue in cheek) prediction as what the 2030 cover of the baseball picture would look like. It was a picture of Shohei Ohtani with the…

I was watching 60 minutes back in 2017 when they ran a segment on someone I had never heard of before -- a 22 year old pitcher from Japan who both pitched and hit and apparently wasn't going to be interested in coming to MLB unless a team allowed him to do both. Found it on YouTube. youtube.com/watch?v=xy1vT19pSyo
