May 8, 2013: Sweat
It's consistently over 95-100 here now, and we're just not rich enough to keep it as cool as I'd like. Well, maybe I'll sweat off those pounds I've gained by getting lazy and eating fast food.
Happy Birthday–May 8

Outfielder Turkey Stearns was a star in the Negro Leagues from 1923-1940, posting a slugging percentage of .619.
Mike Cuellar pitched in AAA in the Twins’ organization in 1961. He does not seem to have belonged to the Twins, however. It may be that he was temporarily loaned to them, a practice which was not uncommon in the 1960s.

May 7, 2013: Peer Pressure
The local radio folk are asking - nay, begging - me to see Fleetwood Mac and The Eagles. I almost want to do it just to make them shut up. Almost.
