  1. Happy, happy birthday, Van. Mine is in a week. But today is also Captain America: Civil War day.
  2. Happy Cinco de Mayo. That glorious day when the Mexican Army defeated the French.
  3. I see this one is going south for the winter. There are margaritas that way, aren't there?
  4. John Ryan Murphy, I may have to take my birthday back.
  5. Just need to remember the sauerkraut on top.
  6. Was just thinking the same thing. Then Meyer comes back up.
  7. You're still young enough to get over it.
  8. I'll second the puppy. But only if you can really spend time with them.
  9. As far as baseball entropy is concerned, you may be better off trying to estimate the Kolmogorov Complexity. Which you can measure as the length of the shortest computer program that can produce all of baseball as an output. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov_complexity I'd start with Tom Kelly.
  10. She weighs the same as a duck?
  11. Hot dogs on a spit; seared over an open raging fire. Orc style; pretend they are defeated enemies.
  12. Happy Star Wars Day.
  13. Reality television.
  14. Here's to young Mr. Meyer dealing a good one. Sorry I'm going to miss it.
  15. While you're at it, send that message along to the umps, too.
  16. I have frozen chocolate custard in my freezer. Will have to have some tonight. All popovers are good popovers. The normal is quite interesting enough without having to invent the paranormal. Fond memories of a lot of teachers; many are gone now.
  17. Thanks to Brian's callout of John Houseman in the game thread... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOWgTtSiVwA
  18. "And what mainly fuels this is precisely what the Founders feared about democratic culture: feeling, emotion, and narcissism, rather than reason, empiricism, and public-spiritedness. Online debates become personal, emotional, and irresolvable almost as soon as they begin. Godwin’s Law — it’s only a matter of time before a comments section brings up Hitler — is a reflection of the collapse of the reasoned deliberation the Founders saw as indispensable to a functioning republic. Yes, occasional rational points still fly back and forth, but there are dramatically fewer elite arbiters to establish which of those points is actually true or valid or relevant. We have lost authoritative sources for even a common set of facts. And without such common empirical ground, the emotional component of politics becomes inflamed and reason retreats even further. The more emotive the candidate, the more supporters he or she will get."
