Gideon Checked Out
My first awareness of Gideons Bibles came from hearing ‘Rocky Raccoon’.
The Beatles must have been in countless hotel rooms and suites with Gideons Bibles while on tour. Perhaps George drew spiritual comfort from one he found in this room.
Gideons Bibles are no longer universally accepted by hotels. I was in Baltimore this past weekend to attend a combination wedding and family reunion. I went back to my room, only to not find Gideons’ Bible.
Epic Pick
Two technology fanboys exhaustively cover the history of Epic Systems. The video kicks in at the spot that’s relevant to me.
You will hear the name Warner Slack mentioned.
Is it Something in the Name?
Trump ordering kidnappings. That’s two the Monkees got right! From ‘Your Friendly Neighborhood Kidnappers’.
AI AIEE!
With AI software scraping LinkedIn and screening job applications, this scene from ‘Monkee vs. Machine’ isn’t very far removed from reality.
Movie Madness
Otto Preminger’s Skidoo is often cited as one of 1968’s strangest movies. Another oddity from that year is Peter Bogdanovich’s first movie, Targets, with the truly great Boris Karloff nearing the end of his life.
If you watch some of the Monkees episodes in yesterday’s post, it’s likely you will see Monte Landis. Busy guy that he was, Monte appeared in seven episodes of The Monkees and he is also found here. Targets opens with scenes borrowed from 1963’s The Terror.
