#Silo The Moby Dick novel that Victor was reading has a moral: The moral of Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick is that unchecked obsession, pride, and the arrogant attempt to conquer nature or defy God lead only to total destruction.
That describes Per Stenson exactly.
🏈connection ! Olean + the Buffalo Bills + new Highmark Stadium !!
During the Bills game today (1:00/CBS) pay attention when they do a panoramic shot of the stadium - all those roof supports at the top of the stadium were made in Olean at the former Dresser-Rand factory ! 1/2
"Bunt foul on third strike is an out" is a ridiculous rule too. A batter can swing and foul off a dozen or more pitches and the at bat continues - but just one bunt attempt after two strikes results in an out makes no sense.
SEC Replay Booth is a joke. Both ways. Anything close it's always "Call Stands" #NDvsTAMU
That's two 60 yard punts because the Irish receiver didn't come up and field it. 😡 #NDvsTAMU
What the eclipse will look like tomorrow in my hometown of Olean, NY - with a little CCR as background music ! 🎶
MLB needs to adopt the NFL & NBA rules on disqualification: 2 unsportsmanlike penalties in football - 2 technical fouls in basketball before ejection.
If NFL rules applied in the NFL, Josh Allen would have been ejected in the 1st quarter for this point - ref ruled it taunting:
NY Daily News tomorrow - look at the faces in the crowd in the stands ! And the catcher & umpire with the classic turn of the head and look to the sky when a long ball is hit ! 😊⚾

An angle rarely seen on something that will be in my heart my entire life.
My dad was instrumental in the Space Shuttle program, and for that, I have the love of all things space in my blood and have had that my entire life.
