From today's USA vs Cuba baseball game...


Pretty sure the cameras need to be IN FRONT of the backstop or at least to the side.

MSNBC = FAIL.

I Weep for the Future

From a poll on CNN.com's front page.

Granted it is unscientific, but still...43%!?

Cheaters

So, the age limit for Olympic gymnastics is 16, you can't be younger than that. Someone please explain how this girl made it to the arena...

Why my Mom ROCKS

Mom sends me packages about once a month which normally include some kind of delicious concoction like choc chip cookies or Mormon magic (as the roommate calls it). This last package was different though...

First, the Costco Brownie Bites (cheaper and easier than real brownies, and, while not quite as good as real brownies, they're likely packed with preservatives which help it survive through the mail).

Next is the chocolate frosting in a ziploc bag.


And finally, the pièce de résistance, the chocolate sprinkles.

A bite of chocolate goodness...

Thanks Ma!

This is Where my Brain Goes

So there I am, right? Running at the park, minding my own business, rocking out to some Kanye. My mind is wandering and i start focusing on my feet. I was trying to run to the beat and I thought, "I can either increase my pace or my stride." You know what I thought of next? That's kinda how radio waves work. AM vs FM. AM is amplitude modulation, like lengthening your stride. FM is frequency modulation, like increasing your pace. Should I be worried that my mind immediately went to the nerdiest thing possible?

Dear Dad...

Remember when I was talking about cooking country style ribs in the crock-pot, and I mentioned that it needs something? Well, your suggestion of a dry rub then a quick sear first was pretty much the greatest BBQ advice I've ever gotten! They are better tasting and more tender!

Love
Your Son
