1. No MST3K reference is complete without "Master Ninja Theme Song"!

   1. Well, I might need to set aside some time tonight to watch an MSTK3000 and this song has sparked that.

      1. I watch it nearly every night before bed. I have a lot of the episodes memorized (particularly the first halves - before I fall asleep).

2. We set a record low temp here overnight, but I'm not going to dwell on it because relative.

   1. Today I broke out the light jacket to walk the kids to the bus. Turns out I could have skipped the light jacket this year and gone straight to the heavy one. Just two weeks ago it was still irritatingly warm most mornings.

      1. Irritatingly warm seems oxymoronic up here in the tundra.

   2. 10 degrees on the walk to the bus. After last winter, I've gotten smarter about how to dress warmly without extra bulk and had no problems this morning. Of course, it helps when the bus is on time.

      1. A bus shelter was built at our stop in the last couple of weeks, which is nice since the stop is completely exposed on the east end of one of the lakes here in town. It's often breezy and frequently blustery out there in the morning. Unfortunately, whoever designed the stop decided to place the opening to the shelter on the corner most exposed to the wind. If they had just poured a slightly larger pad they could have put the entrance/exit opening on either side to keep the shelter handicapped accessible while preventing any substantial breeze from turning all but one corner of the shelter into a sub-zero wind tunnel.

3. This might be SBG bait. Check out the NYK chart here. Might be one of the funniest things I've seen in awhile.

4. Well, this certainly explains a lot. For me, anyway.

   1. Is it a coincedence that the age coincides with having your kids turn in to teenagers?

   2. Plus, he's tall and has neck tats!

5. Pek has a sprained wrist. This Wolves season is very Wolvesy.

   1. Thad Young also gone for a while because of the death of his mother.

6. A legend is born.

7. A look at the weather today
   Some very awesome pics in that link.

   1. I've always loved this one

      1. "An invisible, ancient source of energy surrounds us"

         Whoa! A map of Midichlorian migration patterns?

8. Billy Butler to the A's 3yr/$30

   1. I actually thought the White Sox would sign him. Just seems like with the way that ballpark plays (bandbox) and the loss of Konerko and Dunn, they needed a replacement.

   2. Adios, Wheels.

   3. Just when you think you've got the A's figured out...

      1. Doesn't run, takes walks and slugs.
         Seems like an A's kindof guy.

         1. Yup, and they needed a right-handed threat.
