I learned how much of an almighty fuck-up the 'rescue mission' of the Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics was. (appropriately German word order there!) Catch 'One Day in September' if you can. It's a gripping documentary.

I've seen it. It's great, yeah. And the documentary I watched last night - think it was called Black September - had a lot from it.

Fred (Not 'Sonic') Smith, bass player for Television and the only member who continued to play with Verlaine for almost his entire solo career, is the co-proprietor (along with his wife) of Cereghino Smith Wines, which "produces artisanal wines for the world to enjoy."
He was also in Blondie briefly before replacing Richard Hell in Television, but that part I did know.

There was a surfer named Bunker Spreckels, and there was a book written about him. And that the photographer, Art Brewer, is the brother of Grand Funk Railroad drummer Don Brewer.

I watched a documentary on Hughie Green. I knew about all the philandering and how much of a bastard he was, but what was more interesting was how he used his show to make these ridiculous nationalist speeches (which ended up with him losing his contract). Sadly there's no footage on YT and I can't find any photos but here's an article
