Banning Books

Six Dr. Seuss books will no longer be published due to "hurtful and wrong" content. Just to read the story I had to click past a firewall due to sensitive content. Includes my favorite: "And to Think that I Saw It on Mulberry Street" – because it depicts an Asian wearing a conical hat, holding chopsticks, eating from a bowl. Didn't the Chinese dress like that in the Olympic Opening Ceremonies? Also banned: "If I Ran the Zoo", McElligot's Pool", "On Beyond Zebra" "Scrambled Eggs Super!" and "The Cat's Quizzer". Amazon, a monopoly,  has already stopped selling some books by Christian authors.

Tattoos that tattoo artists say are overused / not original / display a lack of creativity. There is a fine line between classic and common. Should a tattoo not reflect who you are, your personality, your individuality, your dreams? The infinity symbol is overused. It supposedly has a bigger meaning, but so many others have the same thing. Compasses or pocket watches surrounded by roses. Animals, lion heads, a women's face topped by a bear or lion headdress. (guess I don't look at enough tattoos).

When Yearwood's son finished basic training and went off into the air force as an air traffic controller, he told his dad he was getting a tattoo, and asked Jeff to get one with him. Jeff agreed, as long as he got to pick the tattoo. He selected an old cross, with Olde English typeface of a short verse, on his bicep. I was shocked.

Were I to get a tattoo, I would get the classic Braves feather from their 72 uniforms, or maybe a cross. But where? I hear the ankle is where amateurs get tattoos. I don't care. Lots of tattoos on the wrist, or inside of the forearm or bicep. Don't really want a tattoo on my shoulder blade or chest.

I have no desire to get a tattoo. Just thought it funny to see the article, that people get these tattoos they think are cool, but really aren't original or unique.

I am worried about eventually having to take the D.L. eye exam. Hopefully I can continue to renew on line.

BILL MAZEROSKI  [SABR Bio] was the first player in the Modern Era to end a postseason series with a home run. On 07-Oct-1960 his HR put Pittsburgh over the top, winning the WS. He hit his first two home runs in the majors while he was still a teenager. Born 05-Sep-1936, he homered on 16-Aug-1956 & then on 19-Aug-1956(1). He turned 20 before he hit his third home run. He was the first second baseman to win more than one Gold Glove. Maz won GG in 1958, 60, 61, 63-67 for a total of eight, a record not broken for 24 years, when Ryne Sandberg won his ninth.
