Love hearing Jack Buck on the call. I don’t think I remember hearing this call before either. It was his last season broadcasting. 😔 There will never be another like him. #stlcards

[Augie Nash @AugieNash]

That time in 2001, when Jack Buck honored Harry Caray AND trolled the Cubs fans at Wrigley Field all within 1 minute and 21 seconds.

Chip Caray, who was the Cubs TV broadcaster at the time, sure seemed to enjoy it!

The IRENE system at the Library of Congress can be used to create a digital file of a record using optical imaging, without ever coming into physical contact with the item. It was recently used to scan a 94-year-old recording of an Amelia Earhart speech.

It’s PEAK BLOOM!! 🌸 🌸 🌸
The @librarycongress has TWO of the original cherry blossom trees gifted by Japan to the US in 1912. These trees were transplanted behind the Library in 1922 and for more than a century we have taken good care of them.

The Social Security Fairness Act is now law.

Millions of retired educators, first responders, and other public service workers will get their full Social Security—benefits they earned.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, I signed legislation expanding Social Security benefits for millions of teachers, firefighters, nurses, police officers, other public employees, and their spouses and survivors.

This is a big deal.

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer was originally created as a promotion for Montgomery Ward. He first appeared in a 1939 book & later in this 1948 film. As far as we know, the Library has the only complete version of the original release!
