If you build it…
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball.
🇺🇸 has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, & erased again. But baseball has marked the time.
Legend. RIP James Earl Jones.

What Albert knew
I first heard this from deejay philosopher Chris in the Morning on Northern Exposure, c.1990.
"Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose ... There is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men ... upon whose well-being our own happiness depends." - Albert Einstein
