A few thoughts this Sunday morning:

1. I rarely recommend films or tv shows perhaps because tastes vary so greatly in those entities but I would like to encourage any who can to access a made for tv film from 1964, written by Rod Serling and with an all-star cast entitled Carol For Another Christmas. It was subsidized by the UN and was one of four produced which examined humanity, war, hatred, power elite…and well you get the point. They just don’t make tv like this anymore. You can access it on TCM or MGM+. I was gripped for 84 minutes and what a cast! Here is the Wiki entry:

2. Ok. I know I know , but the MSM must stop bleeping the “obscenities” from on-scene videos. People must understand utterly and totally the emotionality of the situation as it unfolds. It’s time to stop clutching pearls and save the nation.

3. Go Birds!! (Philadelphia Eagles)

That is all. I’m exhausted in every way.

Remarkable parable. Truer today than 1964. PCIntern Jan 11 #2
