Sometimes, I think I'm the only one who has never seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I used to manage a repertory theatre in Minneapolis, in the early 80s, before there was a VCR in every room of every house. We'd run doubleheaders of classic films for 2 or 3 days (Casablanca and Maltese Falcon, Victor Victoria and The Bird Cage, War of The Worlds and Forbidden Planet, etc), then I'd take the movies down to the Amtrak station, drop them off, and pick up the canisters for the next doubleheader. Really fun job, if you're a 25- year old kid who loves movies.

Except fpr Friday and Saturday night. Because that was when we ran Rocky Horror at midnight.

I guess it was kind if of fun, because the kids were wild about it, and there was a lot of excited energy. But I have to say, it did kind of wear on me.

You know that scene where everyone throws rice? We remodeled the whole theatre one month, and when they removed some of the light fixtures, there was rice inside of the sealed lights. How the hell those little barbarians managed to get rice inside of sealed units, screwed down firmly, I'll never figure out.

Is that dinner theater in Chanhassen still there?

Is that dinner theater in Chanhassen still there?

Yes! Still going strong, in its 57th year I believe.

WOW! Close to about 50 years when I was there. Tarkenton was the QB. Good dinner. I think I saw I DO I DO and Vanities.

"I Do I Do" ran for an incredible 22 years! The total attendance was greater than the entire population of Minneapolis and St. Paul, 570 people at a time.

Jeez, that Brewers game today.... first time since expansion (64 years) that any team has stolen 6 bases in one innning. And 9 in the game (all in the first 4 innings)? They're all going to have pulled hamstrings. Those records are going to stand a long, long time.

I hope the Packers do not read that. Six long TDs in a game could mean pulled hammies.

I went to Detroit this weekend and took in 2 games between the Tigers and Cleveland. Was fortunate to see Tarik Skubal pitch yesterday, what a performance. He pitched a 2 hit complete game, 94 pitches, 13 K's no walks, hit one batter. Of the 94 pitches, 72 were strikes, and his last pitch of the game was clocked at 102.6mph... unreal! These were our seats for that game.

Now THAT'S nice!

Now THAT'S nice!

My friend and I splurged on the great seats, and to see the reigning AL Cy Young winner give the hometown crowd a performance like that... man it was electric. There were over 37000 people who attended both Saturday night and Sunday games.

Phillies run a bullpen game yesterday?

Crew kinda broke some windows in Minneapolis last night. Misiorowski pitched a perfect game into the 7th before his cramping set in again - starts his major league career with 11 no hit innings. That will be something to bore the grand-kids with later on, huh?

...and Yelich ... 8 RBI ... TFG ....

 

[weeds]

...and 9-0 win today on the Twinkies. Heatin' up.

Did you see where Jacob Misiorowski (that last name is a killer to get right) was added to NL All-Star team 5 games into his MLB career? That's a big ol' WOW from me.

'I'm speechless': Brewers rookie phenom Jacob Misiorowski is named an NL all-star

Just five starts into his major-league career, Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski has been named an NL all-star.

I’ve never seen it in a theater. That’s the only way to really experience it, as far as I know.

Pretty amazing. They are hitting their stride at the perfect time. The sweep of the Dodgers was suh-weet!

I've wanted a Milwaukee/Detroit World Series, since the Brewers moved to the NL...this year is likely to be the best chance for that to happen. Tigers are stumbling a bit this week, but still have the best record in baseball, and the Brew Crew are hotter than a pistol.

Where did this Detroit team come from? I don't follow BB that closely but this is surprising.

The Brewers have slowly but surely fought back into contention for the Central title. That sweep of the Dodgers, even at home, is a pretty big deal. And Misiorowski (sp?) is unreal. I have never seen a 100 mph fastball jump that much. Seems to defy some law of physics.

Over the years the Brewer have been very good at developing pitchers - starters, mid and short relief. And this year their bats are a bit more alive than past years.

It should be a fun August and September for Brewer/baseball fans.

It's actually, imho, a good movie. Weird but well done. But it's an experience in a theatre when all the crowd individually gets on the stage and does the parts while the movie is going on behind them. And everyone dresses the part.

After last night's win, their steak is an unbelievable 8 in a row and even more unbelievable, 4 in a row against the Dodgers. Priester's W-L is 8-2 now after allowing 3 hits in 6 innings and striking out 10 ... that's TEN against the freepin' Dodgers. I don't expect another series sweep against those guys but wow.... Cubbies keep winning too. Crew are a game back. Tonight (Saturday) Peralta starts.

I lost the channel that the Crew are broadcast on as part of an upgrade from Spectrum. While I appreciate the 500 mbps ... they got me on the TV channels. It would be included in the sports channel package for an extra $10 per month but the line in the sand was drawn.

The Brewers have quietly become the best team in baseball over the last few weeks. 4 in a row against LA? That's not an accident.

They are playing their best ball at exactly the right time.

Haven't been much of a baseball fan for a very long time, but isn't exactly the right time in October?
