Hey, hey- whaddaya say?
Well, it's Opening Day for the Braves. In the top of the 9th, they're doing their damndest to give this gave to the Nationals.
I've said this before, and I'll say it now- Fulton County Stadium went out with a World Series. Sure, it was three straight losses, but it was still the World Series. Turner Field will be lucky to go out with 70 wins out of this team.
And then the Braves, to me, will pretty much cease to exist. I will not subject myself to the hellhole of traffic where the team so stupidly decided to put a stadium- the culmination of a series of stupid moves ownership has made over the past seven or eight years.
Currently in my Facebook "trending" column: Dolly Parton and Katy Perry: Singers Perform Duet Medley at 2016 Academy of Country Music Awards.
Why, exactly, was Katy Perry at the Country Music Awards? Was it to compare cup size with Dolly or something?

It was on this date in 1964 that the Beatles owned the top five spots on the Billboard singles chart:
No. 1, "Can't Buy Me Love"
No. 2, "Twist and Shout"
No. 3, "She Loves You"
No. 4, "I Want to Hold Your Hand"
No. 5, "Please Please Me"
That particular feat has yet to be equalled.

Unlike the Grammy's, I've actually heard of a lot of these people. And I don't even like country music.
From the "are you fucking kidding me?" file: It's being reported that Johnny Depp will replace Michael Keaton in the Beetlejuice sequel.
Which just made it unwatchable.
Word is that filming is getting ready to begin on Doctor Sleep- the sequel to The Shining.
To me, that could be good or bad. I enjoyed the book. Then again, I enjoyed reading The Shining, too.
And the movie, in it's own right, is a visually stunning movie and a great ghost story. As a representative of the book, however, it's garbage.
