Tuesday's edition of the New York Times had an article on a recently unearthed home video of "Bustin" Babe Ruth & "Larrupin" Lou Gehrig from their 1927 barnstorming tour. Before reading the article, I didn't realize that there wasn't much video history of the Babe in his prime.

    Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."
