The Saturday Picture Show, September 2, 2023

 

The Baltimore Orioles, nearing the end of one of the greatest seasons in their history, posed for the annual team photo the other day. If you look at the crowd gathered above them on the Flag Court, you'll see a certain famous Marylander. Hint: She Loves Rock 'n Roll!
And Baseball! Joan Jett was at the game on Monday night and got in the team photo that afternoon. Here she is in the TV booth with the great Ben McDonald and the great Kevin Brown. This season really makes up for the lean losing seasons not so long ago.
The reason I switched from Subway to Jersey Mike's is that JM's makes a big deal of slicing the ham and salami and cheese right in front of ya. So now, Subway, which was just sold to a huge international conglomerate, bought slicers for all their outlets and is doing the same. We'll see how that works out for them....
No. This is not a wall with a blue door. This is a wall with a steel gate and a view of a cerulean sky!
In a small fishing village in Coastal Canada stands a house that once had a front porch...
In Amish Country, you get to see the most stark juxtapositions...such as the buggy stall right next to the electric vehicle charger.
Anyone who would ever borrow a book from me and return it with dogeared pages should be advised, I will promptly go all Liam Neeson on you for that sin.
A wonderful old sight: a one-room schoolhouse in Pound, Wisconsin.
Humble to the end, Jackie Gleason (who encouraged others to call him "The Great One") ordered this simple monument to enshrine his mortal remains, and it contains his standard cry, "And away we gooooo!"
The cats have left their marks on the door.
