QueenPins

Netflixed the movie “QueenPins” starring Kristin Bell and Vince Vaughn. Two ladies develop a system to sell stolen coupons, but the Post Office tracks them down and busts them. Not bad.

Not to be confused with Queen Bees, a different Netflix movie about old folks at a senior living facility.

Other interesting movies that have come across my radar screen: Judy (Garland) starring Renee Zellweger. Bye Bye Love, starring Randy Quaid, Paul Reiser, Matthew Modine, Janeane Garofalo, and a Dennis Quaid baseball themed movie.

Stumbled upon an interesting adidas sneaker on Poshmark for $28. I sure didn’t need them. Adidas II Tubular X Ionix II. Seller called them beaters. The next day a buyer offered $17 for them. Sold. Good that I missed them. I did check to see if that seller had any other sneakers for sell with the beater designation.

Out of habit I am compiling my annual list of MLB and MiLB promotional giveaways. Gwinnett has some good giveaways this year, but heck by the time I drive the 60+ miles round trip, pay $12 to park and $14 for the cheapest ticket, I could just buy a t-shirt or bucket cap, or find one later at a thrift store. Plus it takes the entire day to get there early enough to get the promo. Same with Rome. But it is an adventure.

Tried to go home “early on Wednesday but still it was after 5:30. Then I stopped for gas and a drink at RaceTrac. Leftover pasta for supper.

Ran at the gym this morning. Didn’t wear my newest running shoes, and my ankle started hurting during the last mile. Toughed it out to the finish. Boss brought in Chickfila biscuits, and Jessica brought donuts. Just what I need.

MEL OTT [SABR Bio] is the youngest player ever to hit forty home runs in a season. At age 20 in 1929, Ott hit 42 for the New York Giants. It was his 4th year in the majors. He is also the youngest to rack up 150 RBI in one year. Also in 1929, Ott had 151 RBI. Both marks were career highs. He was the first player to win the final game of a World Series with an extra-inning home run. WS-winning HR in the 10th inning of game seven on 07-Oct-1933. It was not a walk-off, since the Giants were the visitors that day.

Article: highlights from the recent World Economic Forum (1) a pagan ritual, (2) advocating for a digital ID tracker, (3) a global tax, (4) efforts to force social media to yield to government censorship, (5) efforts to reign in US sovereignty and Donald Trump, and (6) discussion of lockdowns and green agenda.
