Liam Hendriks and Chris Parmelee have nothing to learn in Rochester. Kennys Vargas stays hot. An Ellis Burks sighting!
Friday Music Day: August 3, 2012
Should I shut up about Lydia Loveless? OK, maybe I will, but here are two places you can download some live clips. Podcast with an interview and three songs performed. (Interesting info: first album was recorded when she was 16. That's some serious-ass songwriting from a teenager.) Mile Marker session, four songs.
Hope y'all are having a good week. Let us know what's on your player.

What was War good for? Absolutely nothing. In twelve games, he was 2-8, 5.64, 1.61 WHIP. He also was 1-for-21 at the plate.
We would also like to wish a happy first birthday to UncleWalt's youngest child.
August 2, 2012: Day Off
It's felt like ages since my last day off before this one, probably because the lack of customers makes for crushing boredom. I miss working in the never-slow Apple Valley store...
Belle & Sebastian – Stars of Track and Field
This one was a real no brainer.
