@Masterflip_ @DTG616 @paulloduca16 The double tags at the plate during that playoff game against the Dodgers will forever live in my memory.

This is also basically how everyone used the internet 20 years ago

You’d end up on some guy’s website about Civil War cannons, click his links page, discover a county historical society, then spend 40 minutes reading a forum for antique tractor owners

“What sort of website is this?” was half the experience

We called it surfing for a reason, now you open the same 4 apps every day

This is the most remarkable story Ray Bradbury ever shared with me. He told it late at nigh, sitting in his den of antiquities and mementos. Take five minutes to read this. It’s pure magic.

It's the eve of Michaelmas, the great feast of St Michael and All Angels - an invocation of the powers of light as the year turns towards the darker days of autumn. Here's a thread on Michaelmas daisies, geese, moons, and other traditional namesakes of the angels' feast.

@firesidemets I’m old enough to remember when the Mets would go literal years between grand slams. Part of that was the Great Wall of Flushing days, but not entirely…

"The greatest joy you'll have in life is elevating everyone else around you - that's what leadership is. It's not about what height can I get to, it's about can I get down on my hands and knees and you stand on my back to get to your next level of greatness"

There is much talk at the moment of ‘preparedness’. I am happy to tell you that I have fuel for two days, food for a week and reading matter for 243 years.

Andy Green on the message to the Mets players earlier today when it was announced he'd been hired as Mets manager

[Matt Bogen @mattbogen]

@Jolly_Olive I was absolutely dreading them hiring yet another first-time manager. Such a relief. We’ll see how it goes.

[Matt Bogen @mattbogen]

@Chris_Ventura5 @HowieRose Now look up Joe Torre’s pre-Yankee managing career. We shall see!

[Matt Bogen @mattbogen]

@Mets Great news! Exactly what I was hoping for.

[Matt Bogen @mattbogen]

@AlyssaRose @HowieRose Thank you for sharing him witty us. One of a kind.

[1976 Live @50YearsAgoLive]

The first U.S. “Space Shuttle,” called “Enterprise” after the television series Star Trek, is rolled out of a hangar at Palmdale, California for its first display.

NASA was originally going to call the craft “Constitution,” but President Ford personally insisted that it be called “Enterprise.”
