Tonight I finished recording the second two hours of the 4 hour PBS series on Franklin. I will be enjoying the recording going forward. I may have missed parts of it duriing the original broadcasts (2 nights in a row).

Offhand I'll say there was a LOT about Franklin I didn't know. Highly recommended.

His son William was a Loyalist.

His son William was a Loyalist.

It was a central conflict in the doc and apparently Ben's life. Families are weird. Whatever Hunter did or didn't do, I don't blame Joe for it unless he was involved.

We know that you can see GoCubsGo's post, so you can't even lie about using 'foe' as an excuse for your stupidity.

Awww. , Useless. So much for "Ignored". You fail again. Plus, Useless, you've been busted too many times for anyone to believe you're not reading my posts, anyhow. It's just your excuse for cowering. Awww.

That's a pretty high level of stupid Oddball has got going on there.

When it comes to stupid, you and your buddy V2 win the title.

Sad.

His son William was a Loyalist.

Yes, and they became estranged as a result. I think the two didn't communicate with each other for the last 10 years of Benjamin's life. Benjamin took William's illegitimate son Temple under his wing instead. No cats were harmed in that process.

Poor baby, you throw a foot stomping tantrum every time your fuck-ups are pointed out. Awww.

Sad.

... Otoh, tonight :

Kinda cute, but maybe the premise will get old. I'll give it another try or two.

Worked well for "Beetle Juice."
It'll be on here in an hour. We'll try it.

I'm still into it. It's staying fresh and clever for me.

Growing on me.

Finale . I'll look forward to next season.

[O Really]

Finale . I'll look forward to next season.

We've still got 2.5 hours or so before it comes on. We've enjoyed it and like it a lot. Not ready for any "finale."

Whew, I didn't even think about spoilers. Good thing I didn't post any.

Tonight:
Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Actress Rebel Wilson; comic Randy Rainbow; Lawrence performs

Randy Rainbow is great. We've posted several of his vids, but I've never seen him interviewed.

Chloe Fineman is brilliant, more than I already knew.

Nature
The Egg: Life's Perfect Invention
Season 37, Episode 12

Host David Attenborough explores the egg, how they are made and how they nurture new life.

Fascinating. It's PBS, so there will be repeats, streaming and the opportunity to record to archaic DVDs.

Dinosaur Apocalypse: The New Evidence

Sir David Attenborough explores how a North Dakota fossil dig site could hold clues to what happened the day an asteroid struck Earth and wiped out the dinosaurs.

PS-I don't care if it can be streamed.

[Ulysses]

Serious question:

If a similarly sized asteroid, such as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, were to come next year... would the nations of earth with the capability to deflect or destroy it, be able to cooperate enough to defeat/deflect this threat to the entire planet?

Pamela Anderson?

Spoiler:

No, Lily James as Pamela Anderson in the upcoming series, Pam & Tommy.

Does she have strap on boobies or the world's best push up bra?

Pam & Tommy got decent rankings:

Emmy Rossum wore 3-pound fake breasts that gave her blisters in order to pull off her role in 'Angelyne'



They're going to have to create a new category at the Emmys.
