https://t.co/KikOtVzzhb My bedroom window view of the world growing up 1950'-60's. #Baseball and #YankeeStadium It was the best of times.

We are halfway home, somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. I woke up at about 2:30 a.m. Atlantic Ocean time just as the Knicks won. I started following the #Knicks when I was about 10. I would read about them in the newspapers, but had never seen a game—after all, it was 1956. For Christmas, I got a transistor radio and found games on the radio. On this trip to Europe, following this playoff run on the internet is not unlike that 10-year-old boy under the cover with an earplug in his ear listening to games when he was supposed to be asleep.
We dock in Brooklyn on Wednesday, just in time for the NYC parade the next day.

You Be the Ump https://t.co/O4R0YditxR
5-7 correct calls, but I wasn't calling like an umpire has to—in a split second. #baseball

In the major academic Presidential Greatness Project Expert Survey conducted by political science associations, Trump was ranked 45th out of 45 presidents. The top three spots in historical rankings are almost universally occupied by Abraham Lincoln, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and George Washington.

It's #SaturdayStories morning, and a trip to the local diner was a rite of passage. We still like to stop in at the local diner

It's been a while since Aisle 228. I stepped back a lot from Twitter. Congrats on your new book. I will purchase one after this post. What prompted this? TNYTimes is running a new segment, and The Poetry Challenge. It made me think of you.

I was in the Army from 1966 68. I was assigned to Germany; others in my training class were assigned to Nam, and other parts of the world. While in Germany, my unit was put on alert twice. We did our wills and insurance policies. Where we were going was a secret. Today, the Iranians are well prepared to meet our troops who are in harm's way. Because losers surround the man-baby in charge, who doesn't care about anyone or America. I fear for our troops.
God Help Us.
