The BASEBALL 100 is a book by Joe Posnanski, my brother's favorite baseball writer. Brother Jack gifted me the book last Christmas.

The Meaning of Life: a review
As is my wont, I'll be brief. Or, a conversation starter. This post is a review of a movie I watched last night and again this morning. I liked it that much! However, it's been widely criticized.
