David Bruce Anecdotes
This email includes a canto from my retelling of Dante’s DIVINE COMEDY, which has 100 cantos.
Anecdotes are usually short humorous stories. Sometimes they are thought-provoking or informative, not amusing.
Umpires
• Minor-league umpires Don Denkinger and Ron Luciano were together when they received a telephone call from the American League. The caller asked to speak to Mr. Denkinger and told him to be happy for Mr. Luciano because he was going to be offered a contract to be an umpire in the major leagues. Then the caller asked to speak to Mr. Luciano and told him to be happy for Mr. Denkinger because he was going to be offered a contract to be an umpire in the major leagues. That’s how Mr. Denkinger and Mr. Luciano learned that they were major-league umpires.
War
• Pelé was such an internationally acclaimed soccer star that even war stopped for him. When Nigeria and Biafra were at war with each other, Pelé needed to go from Nigeria to Biafra so that he could play soccer. The war stopped so that Pelé could travel safely, and the war stayed stopped until the two opposing armies could escort Pelé safely out of the war zone. This is not bad for someone whose father taught him how to play soccer as a small child by using a bundle of rags tied up into a ball. By the way, Pelé’s real name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento — Pelé is a nickname that means “The Black Pearl.”
• During World War II, baseball announcers weren’t allowed to comment about the weather because of fear that Japanese radio monitors might pick up on the information and get some military advantage out of it. Once, retired pitcher Dizzy Dean was broadcasting a game when it was stopped because of a rainstorm. He told his radio audience, “Folks, the game has been called temporarily. I ain’t allowed to tell you why, but if you’re curious, just stick your head out the window.”
• During the Vietnam War, Arthur Ashe played some tennis in Saigon for the USAmerican troops. At one point, someone in the car he was riding in rolled down the window because of the heat, but a soldier in the car said, “Roll that window up. Tell you what, you leave a window down and sometimes a little guy will ride by on a bike and drop a grenade in your lap.”
Work
• Major-league umpire Bill Klem must have loved his job. Early in his career, he worked as a bartender and did some umpiring on the side. Once, a friend told him about an umpiring job — a doubleheader — in Providence, Rhode Island, 50 miles away. Mr. Klem was willing to work it, and so the two men rode on a tandem bicycle to Providence, worked the two games, and then rode the bicycle back home, just in time for Mr. Klem to go to his bartending job. For working the doubleheader, Mr. Klem earned $10, and afterward, he said to himself, “Why, this is easy.” Fellow umpire Jocko Conlan says, “Ride a bike 100 miles, work a doubleheader, earn ten bucks, and call it easy. He had to be a born umpire.”
• Vince Lombardi and his staff were hard workers. When the Green Bay Packers won the 1965 National Football League championship by defeating the Cleveland Browns, 23-12, sportswriters asked Mr. Lombardi about his vacation plans. He replied, “I’ve got a meeting scheduled with my coaching staff. We’re going to start to lay out plans for 1966. We’re starting work tomorrow morning at 9 a.m.” This doesn’t mean that Mr. Lombardi had absolutely no plans for a vacation. He told the reporters, “Maybe I’ll take a week off in February. Maybe two weeks.”
• Seattle Mariners first baseman Edgar Martinez was a role model for shortstop Alex Rodriguez. One day, Alex took batting practice and left at 2 p.m. However, he discovered that he had left his cell phone behind. Returning to the clubhouse at 6 p.m. to pick it up, he discovered Mr. Martinez still taking batting practice. Surprised that this two-time batting champion was still hard at work, Alex asked, “Edgar, what are you still doing here?” Mr. Martinez replied, “I have to hit. I have to work.” Quickly, Mr. Rodriguez decided to emulate Mr. Martinez.
• A young, green umpire told minor-league umpire Harry “Steamboat” Johnson, “I’m a plate umpire,” and Steamboat said, “OK.” He let the young umpire work behind home plate, wearing the bulky chest protector in the hot summer sun, until the young umpire asked him, “Mr. Johnson, aren’t I ever going to work the bases?” Steamboat, who had been enjoying not wearing all the bulky home umpire gear, replied, “I thought you said you were a plate umpire.”

Chapter 16: The Violent Against Nature (Continued) (Inferno)
Now Dante and Virgil could hear a waterfall in the distance, indicating that they were approaching the boundary of this Circle and would have to soon find a way down to the next Circle: Circle 8.
At this point three sodomites saw Dante and broke away from their group and started running toward him, shouting, “By your clothing, you seem to come from our city: polluted Florence! Stop and speak with us for a while.”
Dante looked at them and saw their wounds from the falling flakes of flame. Some wounds were old, and many wounds were new. Clearly, these souls had suffered and were suffering.
Virgil heard the shout and looked at the three sinners coming toward Dante and him. He told Dante, “I recognize these sinners, and they are worthy of your respect. If not for the burning plain, you should be running toward them.”
The three sodomites arrived, and they formed a circle and kept running to avoid the punishment of lying on the sand for 100 years, unable to brush away the flames from their body. In the circle they moved the way that a professional wrestler, oiled and naked, will move as he looks over his opponent to see which grip will be best before the real wrestling action begins. As they ran in the circle, each sinner kept his eyes on Dante.
“If our punishment makes you less willing to speak to us,” one sinner said, “perhaps our great fame on Earth will lead you to speak with us. We would like to know who you are, and how you — a living man — are able to walk through Hell.
“The sinner is front of me is Guido Guerra, a warrior and adviser. In 1260, the Florentine Guelfs attacked Siena at Montaperti. Before the battle, Guido Guerra advised the Florentine Guelfs not to attack Siena.
“The sinner behind me is Tegghiaio Aldobrandi, who also advised the Florentine Guelfs not to attack Siena at Montaperti. He knew that many mercenaries had joined the Sienese forces and therefore were very likely to be victorious in the battle.
“As all Florentines now know, they should have accepted these men’s advice. The Sienese won the Battle of Montaperti and routed the Guelfs. Farinata, who is punished among the heretics, was one of the generals of the Sienese and their allied forces.
“I am Jacopo Rusticucci, and I was wealthy. My wife was unpleasant, and I sent her home to her father. She was reluctant to do what I wanted her to do, and I blame my sodomy on her.”
Dante knew the biographies of these sinners, and he respected them. Guilty they were of sodomy, but they had been good patriots who loved Florence and wanted the best for her, just like Dante. He would have joined them, but the burning sand prevented him from going to them.
Dante said to the sinners, “I feel grief for the punishment you are suffering. As you think, I am from Florence, your city, and I have heard much about you and about your love for her and about your accomplishments.
“I am on a journey to a better place, but first I must walk through Hell, going down to the very center of the Earth and thus to the bottom of the Inferno.”
“Please tell us about Florence,” Jacopo Rusticucci requested. “Are Florentines filled with courtesy and valor, or are these qualities no longer found in the city?
“We have heard from a newly arrived sinner, Guglielmo Borsiere, that Florence is in bad shape.”
“You have heard truly,” Dante said. “Newly rich people encourage pride and encourage unrestraint and make Florence weep.”
All three sinners said, “Thank you for so clearly answering the question. You are fortunate in being able to speak so clearly and so well. If you are equally fortunate in being able to return to the Land of the Living, keep our memory alive among living men.”
The three sinners then raced to rejoin their group.
Virgil and Dante continued walking, and the sound of the waterfall grew much louder, making it difficult for them to hear what the other spoke. They had reached the pit again and needed to go down to the next Circle.
Dante wore a cord around his waist to serve as a belt, much as the Franciscans did. He had thought earlier to use it to catch the leopard that was keeping him in the dark wood of error and keeping him from ascending to the light — his self-confidence was too abundant and too foolish then.
Virgil requested that cord, and Dante untied it and handed it to him. Virgil then threw it into the abyss.
Dante thought, We will see something strange soon. The cord is a signal.
Virgil has many powers. One power is to always know what time it is by the location of the heavenly bodies such as the Sun and the Moon and the planets even though the Inferno is always dark. Another is great strength. And yet another is to know what Dante is thinking.
Virgil said to Dante, “As you think, soon you will see something strange — something that will respond to my signal.” Almost immediately, Dante saw a figure rising from below through the air. The figure appeared to be swimming in the air.

Caitlin Kraus: “This Body”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EW9Kp-P3oio
Notes for “This Body”:
A song for the rights of all: the right to be safe in our bodies, the right to make decisions for our bodies, and the right to be who we are in our bodies. (Lyrics below.) I wrote this song […] out of the need to process my anger at women’s rights being taken away and for what this means for other rights down the line. A never-ending issue it seems, but one we can’t stop fighting for. A big thank you to Tom Riggs for taking footage of my first performance of this song with Mark Hellenberg on drums at The Union in Athens, OH.
Lyrics for “This Body”:
This body is temporary, but while it’s here / It’s not yours to hold captive in fear / This body is mine, it was never yours / So fuck your laws and gods and guns / I get to say what I put inside / I GET TO CHOOSE, IT IS MY RIGHT / This body is sacred, but only safe / When I’m in charge, you have no claim / This body is proud and wears the crown / Makes the decisions and won’t back down / I get to say what I put inside / I GET TO CHOOSE, IT IS MY RIGHT / And don’t tell me who I can love or about my identity / Don’t use your privilege to subject your patriarchy / I get to say what I put inside / I GET TO CHOOSE, IT IS MY RIGHT

GEORGE ORWELL: 1984

- RISE ABOVE.
Theater director Tyrone Guthrie advised his actors and crew to do this. The advice means to rise above whatever forces are working against you. All of us have personal problems. No one’s life is perfect. Sometimes, life seems to conspire against us. Rise above all that, and produce the best work you can.
- ASTONISH ME.
Dance impresario Sergei Diaghilev advised his choreographers to do this. The advice means what it says. Do such good work that the person who commissioned the work—and of course the audience—is astonished. (Tyrone Guthrie also used this phrase.)
- DO IT NOW.
As a young man, choreographer George Balanchine nearly died and so he believed in living his life day by day and not holding anything back. He would tell his dancers, “Why are you stingy with yourselves? Why are you holding back? What are you saving for—for another time? There are no other times. There is only now. Right now.” Throughout his career, including before he became world renowned, he worked with what he had, not complaining about wanting a bigger budget or better dancers. One of the pieces of advice Mr. Balanchine gave over and over was this: “Do it now.”
- GO OUT AND GET ONE.
Ruth St. Denis once taught Martha Graham an important lesson when Ms. Graham was just starting to dance. Ms. St. Denis told Ms. Graham, “Show me your dance.” Ms. Graham replied, “I don’t have one,” and Ms. St. Denis advised, “Well, dear, go out and get one.” (Everyone needs an art to practice. Your art need not be dance. Perhaps your art can be writing autobiographical essays. Of course, you may practice more than one art.)
- WORK A LITTLE HARDER.
“I think high self-esteem is overrated. A little low self-esteem is actually quite good—maybe you’re not the best, so you should work a little harder.”—Jay Leno
