I'm glad you live in Brisbane too, Sam. Nothing bad seems to happen there.


I hope you can watch Christine, Katie. It's one of the best horror movies of the 1980s, and one of John Carpenter's best, along with The Thing and The Fog.

Hi, Sam! I hope everything is going well for you down there.

Hi, Katie! Sorry I didn't post much here yesterday. There was a Phillies/Yankees double header and I got distracted. I'm watching the Phillies and the Flyers with no crowds in the stadiums.

Here's the opening scene from Christine to whet your appetite, Katie. I hope you get a chance to watch it.

The opening scene is set in Detroit, 1958, in a Plymouth automobile assembly plant, then jumps forward to California, 1978. But the movie came out in 1983, so I don't know why it's set in 1978.

It's a John Carpenter movie. Halloween, The Fog, Escape From New York, The Thing, etc.

Thank you, Sam. Yes, always to all of us.

I do hope we get an NFL season. More and more players are opting out of the season due to coronavirus.

Thanks, Katie. Yeah, I figured you're the same way. I hope you're feeling better.

You're welcome. I hope you get a chance to watch Christine.

I love how the scene segues from the 1950s with Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away" to the present day with Tanya Tucker's remake of the song.

So they have no choice but to go through with the season then?

I heard at least 20 players opted out of the 2020 season.

Well, I just hope it doesn't turn into the mess that the MLB season has become with all these postponed games.

Eagles coach Doug Pederson tested positive for Covid-19 but he's asymptomatic, so he says he'll be okay by week 1.

Yeah, I hope not either.

Yeah, it is, but I just hope the players don't get infected.
