    I finally did the Apple TV free trial just to start watching Ted Lasso. Loving it!

     

    I'm actually thinking about keeping Apple TV for a month just to try the other originals like Schmigadoon, Foundation, and Lisey's Story.

     

    Anyone have any thoughts on the Apple Originals?

    Ted Lasso is a great show. Other good Apple Originals that I've watched include Schmigadoon, For All Mankind, Mythic Quest, The Morning Show. A new Jon Stewart show was just added too. Some really good original/exclusive movies as well (CODA comes to mind).

     

    I got a free year of Apple TV+ when I bought an iMac last year. That free year just ended and I gladly paid $50 for another full year of access.

    I walk a lonely road
    The only one that I have ever known
    Don't know where it goes
    But it's home to me, and I walk alone

     

    I walk this empty street
    On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
    Where the city sleeps
    And I'm the only one, and I walk alone

    Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
    Shine on you crazy diamond
    Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
    Shine on you crazy diamond
    You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom
    Blown on the steel breeze

    Oh, baby
    Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
    Like a star that can't wait for night
    I hate to think I been blinded baby
    Why can't I see you tonight?
    And the warmth of your smile starts a burning
    And the thrill of your touch give me fright
    And I'm shaking so much, really yearning
    Why don't you show up and make it alright, yeah?
    It's alright right

    9/11 - where were you on the day that changed history?

    in Off the Wall

    I happened to be in midtown Manhattan attending a conference. As word started to filter through that a plane had hit a tower, most thought "that's weird...it's a beautiful day...pilot must have had a medical issue" and assumed it was a small private plane. Obviously, things progressed quickly from there as the scope of the events became apparent. Impressions from that day include:

     

    - Furiously trying to get a hold of my wife back in Chicago and battling congested cell service

    - standing on Broadway and looking south towards a smoke-filled sky

    - Eerie silence as the day progressed and all traffic (except for emergency vehicles) ceased on the streets

    - A unique "disaster camaraderie" that engulfed the people staying in the hotel. Only guests were allowed on the property and the bar was the main gathering spot

     

    Ultimately, I was able to get off on Manhattan the next day, working my way north to an office my company had in CT. From there was able to rent a car and drive back to Chicago.

     

    Even though I was not that close to the World Trade Center, just being in NYC that day has definitely affected me. To this day, I cannot watch 9-11 documentaries or retrospectives.

    Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run,
    Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run    .
    You better make your face up in
    Your favorite disguise.
    With your button down lips and your
    Roller blind eyes.
    With your empty smile
    And your hungry heart.
    Feel the bile rising from your guilty past.
    With your nerves in tatters
    When the cockleshell shatters
    And the hammers batter
    Down the door.
    You'd better run.

    Precious and few are the moments we two can share
    Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you
    And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair
    'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share
