1976 — In the 6th inning of today’s 6-5 loss to the Chicago Cubs, Mets’ Dave Kingman hits what will become widely regarded as the longest home run ever hit in Wrigley Field, estimated at 600 feet.
2 Hs that never get pronounced but have mega impact:
Twice a century, I actually channel surf the teevee remote! Last evening, I almost got to channel 20 on the Spectrum account. When channel 19 came up, it seemed unfamiliar, so, in checking the listings, it showed a program I'd rather watch while running from the local SWAT team. What WAS being broadcast? "Dances With Wolves." Catching my attention, I parked tight there to the end. Oshkosh by Gosh...what a story! If you've NOT seen it, hop TO it! A tale of 1 white soldier initially vs a tribe of the Sioux Nation and I'll say no more...seeing is feeling! The 2 Hs? Honesty and Honor. It ran parallel to what was learned in a 2 year stint via Uncle Sam, in northern Japan. Every politician should be taped to a chair and watch it 13 times.
Obviously, Friday, the 13th was yesterday, BUT, this being the eve of April's ide, prepare to see black kitties climbing ladders, cracked sidewalks engulfing mothers and biker gangs having a chess tournament!
