Playing around again with posting my own video. Not trying for HD rips or anything fancy. Just want the ability to post an occasional clip of my own choosing when it isn’t conveniently available elsewhere, and to do it as cheaply as possible. Which means not buying an expensive video editing suite. This time around I wanted to see if I could get the 16:9 aspect ratio working.

On Netflix I’ve been binging on “Better Call Saul” and the good news is the series was renewed for a 4th season with 10 episodes. 🙂 But it will be delayed until this fall. 🙁
Someone else had a cancer removed in January, but his was in a very different place than mine. Note: Fry used private insurance for the procedure, not the UK’s National Health.
By the way, Fry’s heritage is — surprise! — Jewish.
Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, no strangers to performing live on stage, landed on Broadway in 1973-74 with their show called “Good Evening.” At its grittiest in the mid-70’s, New York was nevertheless receptive to the duo’s decidedly British comic antics.
Medical student Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute mile in 1954. Dr. Bannister, who became Sir Bannister in 1975, has died of Parkinson’s Disease.
A BBC radio feature I catch every so often is called “Desert Island Discs.” In 1992 Bannister talked about his favorite music.
Is “Leave it to Beaver” in the public domain? Because every episode is on Archive.org. MeTV is still showing them, and if the series were in the public domain you’d think it would be on a lot of channels.
On Facebook, Jerry Mathers recently pointed out that he had worked with Hugh Beaumont before LITB. Watching this promotional film for a cemetery, you can see why Hugh was hired to play Ward Cleaver.
