Operators were a popular choice (well, I think 2 people picked them). Hopefully this will get you moving after the long weekend.

The Milkmaid and I had a great weekend at the cabin, leading up to the worst 4th we've ever had. Her uncle died in a bizarre accident at a holiday party in the wee hours of the 4th, which she found out yesterday at about 8 or 9 AM. Last night I went to get her some ice cream - her comfort stuff - and was hit by a guy running a red light, which broke my headlight and gouged up my fender.
Happy freedom, gang. Don't drink and drive.
Zach Granite and Mitch Garver have big days for the Lookouts. A big comeback for the Kernels.

Well, here we go folks. Was hoping to get this out by the 21st, but a busy schedule, houseguests, and travel put it on the back burner. That said, I've gone through this a number of times, and I think it's a pretty good mix, y'all. As with last time, "flow" was taken into account (with a tiny bit of theme thrown in), so management recommends you listen in order. Thanks to everyone for your input, and we'll see you back here next year.

We who have witnessed the obscenity of war and experienced its horror and terrible consequences have an obligation to rise above our pain and suffering and turn the tragedy of our lives into a triumph.

Jose Berrios was terrific. Kohl Stewart was even better. Seven-run innings make the difference for the Miracle and the Kernels.
