The Enduring Legacy of 'The Twilight Zone'

Serling quickly sold television plays to the better New York-based anthology programs.
His first real hit, “Patterns,” was a character-driven big-business drama broadcast live on the Kraft Television Theatre; it was, New York Times critic Jack Gould wrote a few days after its broadcast, “one of the high points in the TV medium’s evolution.” In that age before reruns, “Patterns” became the first television drama to get a second airing — by having the original cast reassemble a few weeks later for a second live performance. - The New Atlantis

The Hunt

Ghost,
Just got back from hunting the Great Sand Dunes west of the Rockies in CO. Shot a cow elk at 333 yards. 180 grains in the boiler room was all it took. She made it 15 yards before folding. I will be trimming meat at home the morrow. On the way back, someone broke into our truck and stole a couple hunting rifles. I pray for the thieves, for both their salvation as well as incarceration.
