Weekend Notes
FNL For the ninth-straight year Cathedral ended their regular season schedule against Center Grove. They are almost always great games, although CG had a 6–2 advantage coming into this year’s game. Two years ago the game came down to Cathedral being unable to get less than a yard on fourth down. This year the game also came down to one…
Friday Playlist
Back to the (mostly) newer music this week. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3JXm4e8afwBOMGPj0nWKuV?si=3859ffd35ee34ad0 “Lucky One” – The Big Pink I like the heavy, almost ominous feel of this track. “Literary Mind” – Sprints I’m a long-time sucker for songs that capture the feeling of being young and in love, and this sure does that. I especially like how, as the song builds, the band’s…
Thursday Links
I’ve been focused on my book this week, so not a lot percolating in the ol’ noggin’ worthy of writing about. Thus, some links for your enjoyment. Become 007 With Pelorus’ Bond-Worthy Travel Experience I wonder if the girls will be upset when I tell them that their college accounts have been drained so that I can do this instead.…
Reader’s Notebook, 10/11/22
I am deep into the longest book I’ve read in years. My Kindle tells me I’m 54% through it after more than a week of work. Figured I better get to the books I read before I started it so I don’t totally forget what they were about. Italian Ways – Tim Parks Hmmm, a book about taking trains in…
Weekend Notes
A quick run through a busy weekend. FNL It was Cathedral’s homecoming week. They pounded their Jesuit brothers pretty easily, winning 42–21 with two of those scores against coming late in the game. I went for the first half but it was chilly, C’s back was bothering her (she’s been seeing a chiropractor), so we left after we watched one…
Friday Playlist
I did not do a lot of new music listening this week. So, to switch things up, I’m just going to play my Spotify Liked Songs on shuffle and see what it throws out for this week’s list. I’ll also make it extra-long, hopefully a good soundtrack as you wrap up your week. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Rvkn4I3rIkAD7Srr0pyyl?si=3b5304f08fbd427a “1234” – Feist Remember when iPod…
Kid Hoops Notes
A quick kid hoops update, as L’s St P’s team has hit their (stupid) fall break-break. First, a refresher about the dumbness of the CYO girls basketball schedule. Girls hoops has always been a fall CYO sport, so that the gyms are cleared out for boys basketball and boys/girls volleyball in the winter. Never mind that girls volleyball should be…
Weekend Notes
A belated rundown of this past weekend. FNL Cathedral finally had their first home game of the year. Since they only have one after this, and it has already been tagged as homecoming, Friday became senior night. Which was a little weird. I stayed home and listened to an easy 37–6 win over Cincinnati LaSalle. LaSalle has won four Ohio…
September Media
Movies, Series, Shows US Open Probably watched as much of the tournament this year as I’ve watched in several years. It was time well spent. A 30 for 30: Shark I LOVED Greg Norman when I was a kid. He was my first favorite golfer and until Tiger came along I was all-in with the Great White Shark. Over time…
