At work we had a webcast hosted by the company CEO. He’s been broadcasting from the office in his basement. Earlier I spied a “wall catch” bobblehead behind him on his desk. He’s been adding books and other nick nacks behind him. Today he had a framed Sports Illustrated cover of Lebron James in high school, with the title “The Chosen One.”
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany is married to former Braves pitcher Sean Gilmartin, who later played for the Mets, Orioles, and Rays. Gilmartin is in the news for refusing to wear a mask to his wife’s press conference.
I am starting to see a lot of basketball on TV.
Was thinking about the Christmas specials on TV recently: ABC has Disney’s Holiday Special. NBC had the Rockefeller Center Christmas Show. CBS had a Country Music Christmas Special. So only ABC/Disney didn’t have Christmas in the title. Saw where recently Denison linked to an article saying only 6% of the US was Muslim or other religions. Sure seems like more, based on what you see in the media.
Any news today? Not much from me. Left the office around 5:15. Had to stop by Kroger to pick up something for Ceil. Spaghetti and salad for dinner. Was able to work on a project after supper. Watched three more Seinfeld episodes last night, finishing the first season. Also finished a work project yesterday. Got more to do. And a coworker is out, so I’ll be filling in for him.
Tonight I have small group up at the church.
JAVY LOPEZ [SABR Bio] holds the record for doubles in a National League Championship Series, with five in the 1996 NLCS for ATL when they beat STL. For his performance in that LCS, he was named MVP and help put his team back in the World Series as they were the then current title holders. ATL won the WS in 1995. Lopez was MVP of the 1996 NLCS. In the last year of his 15-year career, Javy was teammates with a young fellow countryman pitcher whose first and last names matched his. Although teammates with BOS in 2006 for about a month, catcher Javier Torres Lopez (goes by “Javy”) and fellow Puerto Rican Javier Alfonso Lopez, a left-handed reliever, never appeared together in a game (opportunity missed).
