Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

There should be a remake of the TV show Knight Rider but starring Elon Musk. I mean the guy already has fleets of self-driving cars and frigging spaceships. Think of the possibilities!... Scott Peterson was sentenced to death in 2004 for killing his wife Laci. He's still on death row. Get it over with already!... The Mesopotamian god of the moon was called Sin which is appropriate since most "sins" occur at night... "'No' is often a decision, frequently temporary, to maintain the status quo." - Chris Voss... I imagine that casino chips for poker and table games must be a nightmare for trying to utilize proper sanitation methods in the face of the Wuhan and other viruses. Players wearing mandatory surgical gloves maybe?... Knowing that Neil Diamond wrote Sweet Caroline about prepubescent Caroline Kennedy - his song Girl You'll Be a Woman Soon is even more creepy... Guessing that right about now getting back those rights to Australian Rules Football is looking pretty good to ESPN... An old joke said that microbiologists were easy to spot. They were the ones who washed their hands before and after they went to the bathroom. Now we're all microbiologists...

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

If I was Dana White I'd have the UFC make a $100 million offer to Floyd Mayweather to fight Ronda Rousey in the octagon. I bet more people would pay to watch that than Saturday's fight. Of course Mayweather wouldn't take the deal but then the UFC could claim that Mayweather is afraid of women who fight back. It would be another nail in the coffin for boxing and great publicity for the UFC... Reconsidering The Wire amidst the violence in Baltimore... Who knew? The reason dealers at casinos clap their hands when leaving the table is to show the "eye in the sky" that they aren't taking any chips away from the table cupped in their hands... Heh heh - Don Pardo's old business card... The Mayan calendar was so exact it was only off one day every 6,000 years... I wonder if Cubs fans are starting to feel about Jon Lester the way some older Red Sox fans felt about Mike Torrez...
