Is it just me, or do Seth Meyers’s jokes about The Thorn Birds strike a chord? That was THE book when I was at YCHS.
I’ve started a free online media studies series for kids who miss school (or parents who miss their kids’ school): Hero's Quest: "Raiders of the Lost Ark" with Professor Chuck youtu.be/0ZYTndTtFFo via @YouTube
Okay, here’s my idea for baseball: we recruit top e-players of MLB The Show 20 (from team cities), have them represent their cities, and duke it out on Twitch. Younger fans would love it, and older ones would adapt. #MLB2020
WTF: Triple-headers and robot umpires. Would MLB's reported restart plan work? theguardian.com/sport/blog/2…
Started a new little project to help us thru this isolation: ProfessorChuck.com

Happy birthday Edgar Allan Poe!!! Side note: I always show this version to my students when we read ‘The Tell-Tale Heart’ 👻👻👻 – at Bowie, MD
#BOTD 1809 - Edgar Allan Poe.
Based on Poe's 1843 short story, narrated by James Mason & the first cartoon to receive an X-rating in UK, here we have: 'The Tell-Tale Heart' (1953) dir. Ted Parmelee.
(It was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.)

"Poetry isn't a profession, it's a way of life. It's an empty basket; you put your life into it and make something out of that."
RIP Mary Oliver, filler of baskets.
