Glenn Reynolds‘ post noting “The Wizard of Oz turns 70 years old” was the latest of what is becoming for me an all-too-frequent occurrence: reading a completely different context and being momentarily confused. My immediate reaction was “There’s no way in hell Ozzie Smith is 70.” (He turns 55 the day after Christmas, making him older than I’d have guessed.)
Of course, it’s the movie “The Wizard of Oz” that dates to 1939.
