Chance is a remarkable thing.

Were it not for the clouds over Kokura, Japan on August 9th, 1945, that city would have been blown to hell and back by Fat Man, the bomb that destroyed Nagasaki — the secondary target.

And because that happened, a man named Ted Fujita would survive and later go to the United States — where he would advance the study of tornados so much, and save so many lives, that they named the scale after him.

TV viewing for tonight.
in Gilbert & Sullivan’s The Mikado.
I was inspired to order this DVD earlier this week after watching the episode that covered the friendship between Marx and Dick Cavett. I’m happily surprised that it arrived today.
This was originally broadcast on the Bell Telephone Hour in 1960. Wouldn’t it be nice if provided at least an hour each month of performing arts programming on its streaming channel?

Just watched the "American Masters" release of "Groucho & Cavett' on PBS and IMO it's is worth 2 hours of your time.

Watched a great documentary last nite on &Cavett. I miss the days when talk shows were about witty conversation. When comedians were naughty without having to resort to filth or obscenity. A bygone era

Highly recommended

As a kid, I heard Buffy Sainte-Marie's voice and I was all in. I was too young then to appreciate her inspirational story and what she was communicating. After recently watching film about her, I'm even more in awe of her. Legend.
