As soon as Sano's comes back, or Molly doesn't.

Hey David. How is the food in Hong Kong? What are your favorites?

Hi Bark-  I'm just rushing around to get to this shoot today, but I'll get back on that subject during the down time later!  

Hint:  Not chicken feet, or anything that comes from the guts.

Thanks for the hint and good to hear.

So this is the first year that Yankees games are not being shown here locally (dispute between their network and Comcast)....yet I'm still blacked out from watching the game on mlbtv since I'm in Yankee territory. Not pleased.

85 deg F is perfect, not a chilly 78

I have two daughters who think just like you. Sheesh

Stream it online.

[Aggies7]

Stream it online.

Well I'm listening to it and we're winning so maybe I'll just leave it alone. Theater of the mind I guess.

Stray Dog?

You say that as a joke and I hope it was with the best intentions. It is more complex than that and in different parts of the world it is common place. Eating meat from a dog is no different than eating meat from a cow, pig or chicken.

 

Maybe it freaks out some of us western nations because we are so entwined with the "Man's Best Friend" concept. I'd try some dog if put into that scenario, it would be awkward as I grew up in the U.S.A, and I was under that sphere of influence.

After living in MN for so many years, I laugh when people complain about the cold here. A cold night during the winter is 28 f. (roughly -2 Celsius for those who use those weird metric units, not that there's anything wrong with that..)

 

I see people bundled up in winter coats suitable for the frozen north. Meanwhile, I'm wearing a sweatshirt. (yeah, I've become a cold weather wimp, relatively speaking)

I have spent entire winters in shorts T and sweatshirt. Windpants in an emergency. Cold is over rated!

[DocBauer]

Man...if only a healthy Gibson didn't suck so bad!

 

(Sarcasm alert)

[Aggies7]

I'll say that the team of Provus and gladden ain't too bad.

[Circus Boy]

 

I'm gonna try something sort of different today. I am wiping the slate clean today. I know there won't be any playoffs and 90 losses seems clinched for the Twins.

 

But I call out to the baseball force that flows through us all to change the tides of a regrettable season.

 

Today will be the day the Twins start playing competitive, watchable games, and the young guys start to pick it up. We may lose, but let us lose with honor and pride. Mr. Ryan will also have an epiphany and start taking chances on the hotshots in AAA (Berrios, Chargois, etc.). As for the coaches, teach the players well and execute decisions that are based on 2016 Major League Baseball. The past only includes old ideas that are usually bad and defunct, riddled with worthless nostalgia, and in my opinion, forward thinking is exciting, challenging, scary at times, and absolutely the right way to go.

 

I commemorate this moment with a bottle of clean slate Rally Rum!

 

Lex Talionis!

So far, so good. I like it.

[Aggies7]

Too many missed chances tonight. Saw this coming a few miles away

[Aggies7]

Gibson having a complete meltdown

[FunnyPenguin]

And Gibson is about to be knocked from the game, nice seeing 5 good innings though

[Aggies7]

.......

[Aggies7]

Wow! Great job to get out of that.

[Bark's Lounge]

 

So far, so good. I like it.

Fingers crossed.

[Danchat]

Wow, Suzuki is batting .250. He's stealthily become a better hitter as of late.

[Aggies7]

I just want to beat these guys like, I don't know, once in a while?

[jimmer]

because of his BA?  yeah, no.

[Aggies7]

Welp here we go again. Just giving it away

[ShouldaCouldaWoulda]

How have Buxtons 3 at bats looked? Just turned on game.

[Platoon]

Catching up on TiVo bunting in the 4th inning WTF

[Aggies7]

Unbelievable.

[Aggies7]

The names and faces change but the (below average) Yankees still own the twins.
