Busy Friday

My dad used to tell me that he'd taught Stan Musial how to hit. I became a fan of Stan the Man because of this, and it wasn't until years later that I actually looked up Stan's birthdate and discovered that he was quite a bit older than my dad. But I digress. It's my father's birthday, so Happy Birthday, Dad! Even if you didn't teach Musial, you did teach me how to catch the ball, so there's that.

Some other stories about my dad.

Tonight is also the premiere of Wonderfalls (on Fox, 9 EST/8 CST), which is just wonderful. I downloaded the pilot a few weeks back, and it's just hilarious. Everybody in the world should watch it.
