it is a fantastic strategy, one i’ve also adopted.

so nice to have that day to relax, do the laundry, and just chill.

the texts from her father and husband to female staffers are so creepy.

i was checking out the civil war memorial on the courthouse steps and noticed the JFK marker.

very cool!

stumbled on this at the kane county courthouse yesterday.

had no idea JFK campaigned there.

i’m the same - love going to games, also in my DNA.

but i’m selective - i only go when the twins play teams with players i want to watch (skenes, judge, shohei, bobby witt, etc.).

sadly, it’s the only way i can justify paying for a twins ticket.

i want the franchise to do well, everyone does.

winning is fun!

but ownership seems, as you suggested, a bit blind.

it’s hard to watch.

i’ve only ever seen these beauties along 94 in north dakota.

lawdy!

why.

does.

he.

write.

like.

this?

cold night, plus a teed off fanbase.

might be a few more less-than-10K crowds this season.

bob’s microphone issues didn’t impact the experience for me.

it was a solid show.

glad to see bob wasn’t hiding behind a baby grand piano on the edge of the stage - great to see him up front with a small electric piano instead.

for me, the highlight was I CAN TELL.

where is that sheridan statue?

the man.

the myth.

the legend.

so much time on the DL.

coulda been a contender.

great theater in my old neighborhood.

fantastic novel.

the last page almost made me cry on a flight back from hawaii.

fantastic story.

@adarowski.bsky.social needs to get that photo of shorty onto baseball-reference!

fantastic book by jane leavy, made me really appreciate mickey mantle as a man.

fantastic headline, and quite apt.

what’s the worst that could happen?

🤡

i chuckled when i read the NYT headline.

coon rapids is not a small town (as that term has been traditionally understood) or an exurb.

it is a minneapolis suburb in the midst of a large urban metropolitan area of more than three million people.

a four-year lawyer/baby FBI agent.

i guess they drew the short straw.

just landed on my minneapolis doorstep!

ordered!

dave winfield tossed me the ball he caught for the final out against the twins back in about 1986.

i had that same ball subsequently signed by tony armas and rich gedman when the red sox came to town.

still have the ball!

and we go to the 15th!

great song.

“Oh my god . . . I have no words.

This is an achievement of a whole society.

I am just, you know, one person.

I certainly do not deserve this.

I’m honored, humbled.

I’m very grateful on behalf of the Venezuelan people.”

very nice team upgrade for louie.

love that robin yount card!
