Just saw a post where someone said that use of em dashes (—) was a giveaway that you're using AI for writing. Uh, no. It could just mean you like to use em dashes.

Saquon Barkley is a very good chess player. That is not a metaphor. He says it helps him play football.

@enosarris.bsky.social You were an entertaining host! Totally understand the love of being an analyst, as hosting requires structure and compliance which fights with your creative vibe. 20 years of horse racing on the radio taught me to embrace the analyst role but it’s good to be versatile!

Saw her live at the old Hollywood House of Blues. Great night. Amazing talent!

Daughter of Marie & Nat King Cole, Natalie Cole was born today in 1950. She turned heads in the music world in 1975 with her single “This Will Be” (penned by Chuck Jackson & Marvin Yancy). Cole was derailed by personal demons for years but made a stunning comeback in the 1990s. She passed in 2015.

The fastest he’s ever gone

The quality of American racing has been in a steady decline for a while. While the purses have grown immensely at some tracks, most of the fields don’t even have a single runner with a par speed figure for the level! “Fake Grade 1s” will only make things worse.

Paul McCartney on Slow Horses

So #BBN to blame the refs for a total beat down. Sometimes you get your ass kicked. The guys in white with the “deer in the headlights” look on their mugs are responsible not the guys in zebra shirts.

Heston Kjerstad just keeps getting pushed down a rung with this Ramon Laureano signing. Build-a-bench in Baltimore no longer has a spot for him until a veteran gets released.

Billie’s style is often imitated but never duplicated. She is outstanding in many ways!

Breaking loose from a decades-long relationship with Capitol Records, Frank Sinatra started his own recording label – Reprise Records – on this day in 1960. Music titan Mo Ostin (1927-2022) headed Reprise through the vibrant and turbulent 1960s, after the label merged with Warner Bros in 1963.

Warm Spiced Cauliflower and Chickpea Salad With Pomegranate Seeds This is one of my favourite suppers, although there’s nothing that says you can’t serve this as a vegetable side as part of a more conventional meal. And you could also bolster it further by crumbling...

#RecipeOfTheDay is a regular in Casa Lawson: Warm Spiced Cauliflower and Chick Pea Salad! And for all that I call it a salad – not entirely sure why I do, except that’s how I think of it – it is actually rather gorgeously hearty. (And also #vegan, btw) www.nigella.com/recipes/warm...

IMHO, Billie has classic beauty beyond her years.

My favorite jockey, Flavien Prat, went to Tampa Bay Downs to ride 4 horses for Chad Brown (not my favorite). He won all 4 races!!!
