Billy Jo/Joe

The episode of Burke's Law was "Who killed Billy Jo"? The actor who played the unfortunate Billy Jo was Kelly Gordon; according to IMDB Gordon has three acting credits plus one uncredited role. His last apparent role was the murder victim.
So what else did this man do after BL? He was young, only 30 or 31 then.
A search for him leads to a Kelly Gordon in music, both composer and producer. His best-known piece is "That's Life," cowritten with Dean Kay and readily identified with Frank Sinatra's 1966 version.
As a music producer, he is credited with Bobbie Gentry's Ode to Billy Joe. Coincidence? Two "Kelly Gordons"; two "Billy Jo(e)'s"? No - one Kelly Gordon: same dates of birth and death are indicated on imdb and revolvy websites. And, he sang his own song as Billy Jo in Burke's Law.
Gordon died young, so the question about dual Billy Jo/es could only be answered in this life by Bobbie Gentry.

Nights (and days) around the Round Table

Roaming Rita's latest post is delightful. And not just because it is about our family. When family gets together to break bread, whether at home or away, it's great that everyone has a great time. Whether we like one another or not, a party in which the hosts do all they can to make everyone feel welcome is a foreshadowing of a promised party at the end-of-time. It's a party to which all are invited.
BBQ, birthday party, Christmas Eve, Easter Sunday, St. Patrick's Day, anniversary, Thanksgiving, lunch, dinner, Saturday morning pancakes... "Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death!" And shared meals, from breakfast to banquets are fractals.

Mystification

The Bulwark mystifies me. Even after communicating with one of its principals who emphasizes in return, "The Bulwark is not the Weekly Standard," the presence of a significant number of clearly non-conservative writers is a puzzle. Does "never-Trump" mean "anyone but Trump"?
The initial logo for the site, includes the subtitle, "Conservatism Conserved."

As of Today (?) or earlier this week, I think, the subtitle has changed:

"Slightly Dangerous" -- that clarifies things.
