Loading... Thank you for being you (but still, dude, I mean, come on...).
Sorry, don't have a lot of time so a couple quick points as we plunge into the 2nd half:
-Sano had the lead in All-Star voting but lost it at the last moment. Santana and he will represent the Twins this year.
-Meyer (whom I'm sure you know is having a decent year) is facing off against Mejia for the second time this year. Neither figured in the decision their first time.
-That's it. I just said "a couple".
Living in the suburbs means they all compete with each other. However, since this is basically an extended weekend, by traveling 5-10 miles we can skip between them (sorry, my suburb) and see 3-4 full blown fireworks displays this weekend if we want to.
(At the same time, are fireworks displays losing their power? The boy is still kind of interested, but not thaaaat much...)
Not sure how this song hasn't ended up on the mix before. Definitely quintessential summer stuff.

All right, ladies and germs, nice job again this year. Please find your own copy of the mix here.
In that folder, you'll see several files. If you want the individual files, go to the folder labeled "Tracks". However, this year (which I've wanted to do for the last couple), we've created a single mp3 that contains the mix in its entirety, which is the preferred method of consumption. The result is a seamless mix with each track flowing directly into the next. There are 3 versions of varying bitrates, so please select the sound quality of your choice (the lowest one isn't shabby or anything though).

I caught up to the present on a TV show I was watching (which never happens), and decided to finally pull the trigger on Better Call Saul after the mentions in the movie TV post. In the first episode, I saw he had the same flip phone that I used to have. Ahh, the early aughts...
(I know it's been less than a month, but we should probably try to nudge this back towards its normal programming slot.)
Since we're living in the Golden Age Of Television™, it's probably worthwhile to discuss TV's Oscar awards (better known as the Emmys). What's been your favorite TV shows of late? Any deserve special recognition? Admittedly, I don't watch enough TV to properly say who actually deserve a nomination. I can only say that if Zach Woods doesn't get something, I'll consider the Emmys an exercise in futility.
