This place has been a ghost town this weekend, so I assume you all traveled for the holiday.

If you listen to this song like you have never heard if before you might not hate it.

No players with connections to the Minnesota Twins appear to have been born on this day. The closest we come is Billy Moran, who was part of a three-team trade involving Minnesota, Cleveland, and the Los Angeles Angels. Minnesota acquired Frank Kostro and Jerry Kindall in that trade, and sent Lenny Green and Vic Power to Los Angeles. Billy Moran was sent from the Angels to Cleveland in that trade.

November 26, 2011: Recovery
This was going to be an outing to the zoo for the four of us, but the Milkmaid's sick and my feet are killing me after running around for a busy 12-hour shift. Still, I expect Skim to talk us into going.
Titus Andronicus – Richard II or Extraordinary Popular Dimension
Their album The Monitor, after a year to reflect, is without question my favorite disc from 2010.
