Friday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

July 12, 1804 was the anniversary of Alexander Hamilton dying from a duel at the hands of Aaron Burr. Perhaps my favorite Hamilton trivia is the fact that Alexander Hamilton Jr. (his son) was also a lawyer who successfully represented Aaron Burr's wife in her divorce. Burr died the day the divorce became official... Neil Everett is among the people not being brought back by ESPN. This one hits hard and is an indication of how different the network will look moving forward. Everett was there for 23-years... Not sure where Megan Rapinoe has been all these years but I sure can't wait for her to go back there... Don't care either way but there's some who get upset if you say "bacon, egg, and cheese" omelet instead of just "bacon and cheese" omelet. Guess the egg is implied in an omelet. Think those people should switch to decaf... Just saying but I had Alexander Hamilton at number 10 in my ranking of the top Americans of all-time... If you still think the FBI weren't directly involved in the January 6th Washington DC event - you haven't been paying attention... Reminder that all good things must come to an end. If they never came to an end - they would not be a good thing... You may not care about Ancient Roman history but it still impacts your every day life. The month July is named after Julius Caesar who was the man who introduced the 365 day calendar with a leap year every four years at the end of February… Just saying but when you factor in the contract - there’s a good chance that Kyler Murray may be a bigger draft bust than Josh Rosen for the Arizona Cardinals… Spent yesterday at Narragansett Beach. Great beach day in Rhode Island. Hope you enjoyed your Thursday…
