While these are funny, I'm skeptical as to how many of them are real.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Some of those letter combinations just don't match what they were "supposed" to be.

It started to snow at 11:30am. My dog and I love playing skip dog in the snow so we went out. We came in at 6:30pm. What I learned from that was 7 straight hours of throwing a firsbee to a dog leads to very sour abs.

Just wait until tomorrow. . .I suspect that soreness will stick around for awhile.

[Thurston Fluff]

Yep still sore today. And I have people coming over to play a game tonight. Dog's ready to go so I guess I'm gonna have to suck it up. On the bright side 47 next week and can still see my abs.

The worst part about your computer crashing and buying a new one is trying to reacquire all your bookmarks.

Xmarks | Bookmark Sync and Search

 

Firefox 4 and Google Chrome have built-in bookmarks syncs, but this one-ups them because it syncs across multiple browsers: Firefox, Chrome (and other Chromium-based browsers), IE, Safari (Mac & iOS), and Android.

Dang, that would have been fantastic to have about 2 months ago. I had bookmarks for all the interesting stat sites I used and a few links to primer on SABR stats.

An Idiot Abroad is without a doubt my new favorite show. Every episode has been hilarious.

Just finished an on-air radio interview with 540 ESPN Milwaukee as the fantasy expert representing RotoWire.com, talking starting pitching. My first booked gig on AM/FM, but I've been on XM before. Anyone hear me?

That's really cool. Next time you're on the radio, give us some notice. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Congrats, Sam! Are any of your past appearances archived for us anywhere?

i work at an outfitters, and i would disagree. not to go all salesman-y, but socks now are breathable and wicking and have become very specialized to what you'd need them for. the problem with socks these days (at least i think) isn't the quality, but that they cost $25 a pair now, which is utterly ridiculous.

[And That]

I'm talking more the Hanes 6-pack that you get for $9 at Target. I swear they get holes in the heels after half a dozen washes. That didn't use to happen. Perhaps my feet are much more menacing than before.

You know how table manners differ between cultures? I wonder if there's a place where it's cool to talk with food in your mouth.

I'll agree. I buy socks that are a tad bit more expensive ($10 for 3 pairs), and 2 pairs just this past weekend developed huge holes in them and I had to throw them out...yet I have socks from 5 years ago that are still alive and kicking. Both pairs I tossed were less than a year old.

Thank goodness it wasn't just me. I thought I was being abnormally tough on them or something.

I spent way too much time getting batting music arranged and uploaded on my PS3 for the launch of MLB 11 The Show tomorrow. It helps I have a Brewers playlist I still listen to weekly, lol.

May I suggest washing them?

Here you go.

Thanks, its nice to hear that back... gotta cut down on the "ums"!

[trwi7]

It was your first time on radio, you were probably nervous, I know I would be.

I gave myself a haircut for the first time in my life. Apart from taking about twice as long as it takes a professional barber, it actually turned out really well, especially for my first try. I'm talking long on the top with tapered sides and stuff, not just a straight buzz.

 

Put that down on the list for something I should have started doing a long time ago.

These new klements sausages commercials running on repeat during WTMJ spring training games are absolutely brutal. The song does not put me in the mood to eat a bratwurst, in fact the imagery the song creates is the opposite eating brats. Sadly the song is so bad that it is running through my head "relax, relax, it's klemments time"

[tristarscoop]

That commercial is actually WORSE than you think it is. Because he's not saying "relax," he's saying "Grillax." http://www.terrysweet.com/grillax
