well, certainly impressive today.

Good deal. Just turned on the game now. As usual life is short, and I don't watch Gibson to shorten my life even more.

 

The Austin Symphony was playing an outdoor concert in my neighborhood today! It was a beautiful day with beautiful music.

[AlwaysinModeration]

So the ball is coming at me, essentially right at my face.

I am at my office working, and taking a break to look for infractions.

Working on Saturday night IS an infraction.

What’d they play?

[Craig Arko]

Sano seems a natural at second.

Working on Saturday night IS an infraction.

Not for my client, who has called an all-day meeting for tomorrow.

[USAFChief]

 

What’d they play?

The usual, I reckon.  Violins, basses, cellos. etc. etc.

[Squirrel]

I had to unlike that because I sometimes work Saturday nights. But then it balances out with the 11weeks paid vacation I get.

ChiTownTwins...I think the Michigan theme song for the year should be Ride of the Valkyries.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

How far have the Twins progressed in the past year?

 

Sano is being allowed to catch popups behind second base

Glunn lurking.

 

watch your language everyone.

Yep. English only from here out. Lookin' at you, Puckett34.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Wagner has been remarkable.

[Nine of twelve]

Dangit!

[Squirrel]

Well Farquhar

[Platoon]

You need new clients!

[Nine of twelve]

What’d they play?

Numerous musical instruments. Duh.

[Craig Arko]

A butterfly flaps its wings in Bremer’s mouth.

[Vanimal46]

What’d they play?

Boy, I'm not your guy for song titles on classical music... A lot of the well known classics where I know the melody, but don't know the composer... As well as Coldplay "Viva La Vida" and the finale was "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. Overall a great concert!

Wasn't me.  Was my dishwasher. 

[Aggies7]

Pressly looked darn good

IIRC they had him out in that area several years ago?

[jimbo92107]

I, for one, am not going to whine about losing the no-no. Ryan Pressly is pitching quite well. Still plenty of room for improvement, but he looks like he belongs now. 

[Squirrel]

Numerous musical instruments. Duh.

Chief ninja’d you on that a while ago. Get out of lento mode.

[Riverbrian]

 

Hopefully the words of the Rolling Stones apply to this situation ....                                                           "

 

"She combs her hair... She's like a Rainbow"? 

 

"I bet your Mama was a Tent Show Queen"? 

 

"I'm all sixes and sevens and nines"? 

 

"Take me Down Little Susie... Take me Down"?

Kinda nice walking into bars where everyone knows your name.

or, it means you've spent way too much time in that particular bar.

[AlwaysinModeration]

 

. .............the suspense is killing me.......

 

So, the ball coming at me, I reach up, and pluck it, barehanded.  Nary a nacho is dropped!  My dad is impressed, and people around me cheer.  Unfortunately I forget to hand the ball off to a child sitting near me, as my hand is stinging too much (stitch marks on my palm).  A guy comes down to say "I just heard about your catch on the radio in the breezeway, Jack Morris remarked on the stellar quality of the catch, and that the woman behind me was thankful that I'd saved her life."

 

So, my beef with Beckham....

Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste.

CBU-standin update: Twins still lead, no hitter is now a 1 hitter through 8

 

However, the weirdness continues because Twins pitchers are striking out batters.

 

This has been another CBU-standin update.
