Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Was saddened by the sudden passing of Luke Perry. While many of his fans primarily think of him in roles on Beverley Hills 90210 or Riverdale - I may be alone in thinking of him as Linc Stark from John from Cincinnati (I never watched those other two shows)... Does Florida have an extradition treaty with any of the New England states? Asking for a friend... Actually like this idea a lot! Assuming the players have no eligibility left what's to stop the SEC Network from paying the players to participate? They aren't getting paid to attend the NFL combine... So President Trump accidentally called Tim Cook of Apple "Tim Apple" and Tim Cook reacts by changing his Twitter profile to this. Genius!... I was disappointed that the Patriots did not place the franchise tag on Trey Flowers but then I was reminded that Flowers and Bill Belichick have the same agent. So hope remains that some type of deal can be reached (though I'm not optimistic)... Technically this is true. Also technically true that combined the Sacramento Kings and Boston Celtics each have a first round draft pick in this year's NBA Draft (oh wait a minute)... "Knowledge if not digested does not give nutrition, only adds weight." - Osho...

Burn Notice
I watched the pilot to the show Burn Notice for the second time last night and I'm hooked. This is a great show. The writing on the pilot is matched only by the acting. Jeffrey Donovan is perfect as Michael Westen and Bruce Campbell is equally great in his supporting role.
The show is a combination of Maverick meets James Bond with the cut-away shots of hot girls in bikini's from Miami Vice tossed in for good measure.
I only mention the show to give you a chance to jump on board at the very beginning. This show and John from Cincinnati are my two summer "must see" shows. JFC is so quirky, though, that I can easily see the show jumping the shark into metaphysical realms. The suspension of belief on JFC is already strong - if they stretch it any further they will lose the audience (including me).
