Interesting Stuff. Some interesting stiff on the news.
1. KURTIS AND JACOBSON-- Sure enjoyed watching WBBM-Channel 2, Chicago's CBS TV, news last night when they had the return of the two anchors from 1973 to 1989. Walter Jacobson and Bill Kurtis were brought back on a one-night news show at 10 PM in an effort to shore up the stations beleaguered ratings.
I say, bring them back full-time. They haven't missed a beat. Brought back memories.
2. LARGEST CRUISE SHIP-- Yesterday, I saw pictures of the world's largest cruise ship, the Oasis of the Seas. That is ONE BIG BOAT!!! It cost $1.5 billion, has 16 decks and is 40% bigger than the next largest cruise ship.
Also, it is five times larger than the Titanic, has 2,700 cabins, can carry 6,300 passengers and has a crew of 2,100. First cruise is December 5th.
Attsa Some Bigga Boata, But Too Big for Me.
3. PACKER FANS GREET FAVRE-- Brett Favre wasn't exactly welcomed a month ago when he was so brash as to show up in Lambeau wearing Viking colors. Some of the better signs:
"Favre, You Broke My Heart" with a picture of Favre in the Godfather movie. Fedro Favre.
"True Legends Don't Wear Purple."
"We'll Never Forget You, Brent."
A plane flew over the stadium pulling a sign, "Retire for Good, Judas."
4. ALMOST GOT AWAY WITH IT-- On Nov. 5th, US Customs and Border Patrol agents opened a shipping container and discovered a 1965 VW bus inside. Old car, but, it was stolen 35 years ago in Washington state. It was headed for the Netherlands.
5. FUNNY, FUNNY POLITICAL CARTOON-- In the Nov. 13th Chicago Tribune. It shows a Michael Jackson-looking character complete with glove and white face wearing a Cubs jersey with Sammy Sosa's number being taken aback when a little kid looks at him and says "Say It Ain't So, Sammy!..."
That's a Good One!! --RoadDog
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
