  1. Wait, what? Eddie threw out a baserunner yesterday?

    That's not gonna help him hit the cutoff man....

  2. How does this work? Do I talk about coffee? Mine does not have Viagra in it. It wouldn't make me stop drinking it if it did.

    What's this button do? SEND HIM!!!

    1. Looks like you understand things perfectly. If it's not half-bakef, it's not the WGOM.

      Welcome aboard.

      1. I didn't click the link in the intro before reading this, leaving me confused, and more than a little concerned about what else people might be adding to their coffee.

        Also, welcome!

      1. I've survived 4 years of Kelly's games. Rabbit holes sound like much needed relaxation.

        Okay, what's THIS button do? TWINS BASEBALL!!!

  3. @PGATOURSMartin Kuchar and Spieth are tied on 13th tee.

    Spieth hits his tee shot into an unplayable lie.

    Spieth has a one-shot lead after 15.

    Nonsense.

  4. Just getting around to posting on our Scotland trip a week ago.

    It was kinda last minutey, we had been thinking about just driving around upstate NY (adirondacks/lake george/champlain), but NBBW discovered a new low cost air route from Hartford to Edinburgh on Norwegian Air, and we booked it a week prior to the trip. Then came the mad scramble to find a rental house - luckily we found someone who had just had a last minute cancellation, and voila.

    Flew to Edinburgh (not bad, five hour flight that you sleep thru), then drove up to the Highlands (yes, wrong side of the road, left hand clutch, etc.). The Highlands were awesome - long runs/hikes around the lochs, haggis and black pudding for breakfast, English you can't make sense of. I was remarking to a local on how un-developed that area is and asked why. He said a lot of the land in the Highlands is owned by the Forestry service, and the land that is private is mostly owned by 12 families (probably the clans - remember other than Cromwell they didn't have a real revolution).

    Then over to Isle of Skye, where we booked a house for most of the week. Nice to be able to make meals at the house - we hiked all over the place. Very rugged and rural, but sparsely populated (like Ireland, a lot of people bailed with the potato famine).

    Brought my Steiner binoculars with and was able to get in some good birding - oystercatchers, red-faced goldfinch, bullfinch, a cormorant-like colony, herons, many different terns/gulls. Definately a do-again, while we have the direct flight from BDL. Am interested in Orkney Is. & Lewis/Harris.

    1. I'm catching a direct flight from New Orleans to London tomorrow. I'm excited to leave my house and wind up at my destination without having to kick around Newark or some other turrible airport waiting for my real flight across the world. #firstworldproblems

    1. I posted that a day or two ago. Honestly, I'm really curious about the reasons behind that response. Playful ribbing? Ax grinding?

  6. I wish US Soccer would find one quality kit look and stick with it. Seeing Mexico with the classic green/white/red look makes me sad that the US changes just about every match.
    Last night I was half asleep and took me 20 minutes to figure out the US was wearing white.
