Was it a Twitter exclusive. My only objection to today’s game was that it was a Facebook only game. I peeked in for one second and while the game was going on people are commenting and their comments appeared on the left side of the screen. Ridiculous. I turned it off quickly.

Using old stamps is a good way to save money on postage. Perhaps the seller was a stamp collector and decided to use some of his collection for postage.

You think that's bad. I ordered something from Russia and I thought it would be here by now but I just checked the tracking and it's now in Wisconsin!

I think that’s why we should never make too much of spring training. My son, who is an Angels fan, was pushing to have him sent down but I counseled patience.

Par excellence! I love the cds that I have by him.

Wonderful records, especially the First Sessions, all three volumes.

Correct. They’re not broadcasting the game tomorrow on SNY (the Mets station) or WPIX, which broadcasts some games. Mets fans are not too happy. One game is not going to bother too many people but one becomes two, two becomes four, etc.

Yes, a FB only game. I’m not sure what it signifies.

Get ready for FB only games. The first one is tomorrow, Phillies vs Mets. Wonderful. Remaining schedule (so far) (all times ET): • Wednesday, April 11: MIL-STL, 1:15 p.m. • Wednesday, April 18: KC-TOR, 4:07 p.m. • Thursday, April 26: ARI-PHI, 1:05 p.m. • Thursday, May 3: LAD-ARI, 3:40 p.m. • Thursday, May 10: SF-PHI, 1:05 p.m. • Wednesday, May 16: TEX-SEA, 3:40 p.m. • Thursday, May 24: LAA-TOR, 12:37 p.m. • Wednesday, May 30: STL-MIL, 1:10 p.m.

That's the issue I've been having. I'd be listening to a song and it would turn off. I'd then have to pull out the USB plug for a few seconds and then it would pick up where it left off. On other occasions you'd have to find the song again as it would start from the beginning, as it were. A few times, you'd have to do a forced restart of the iPod as it just wouldn't start normally.

Any new Cobb is always welcome!

I have a Brother and it’s very dependable.

I can’t recall if I ever had Thai food although we do have a place in town. My wife is Chinese so we eat a lot of Chinese but not the crappy kind. As we don’t live in NYC we’re lucky to have a couple of good places in the area.

This weather is absurd. We must have received five inches and it may snow later this week. We started to do spring cleanup this weekend, which is now on hold. The weather reminds me of the weather we had this past October and November where it was unusually warm. It took a long time for winter to come and it may take a long time for Spring to come.

It’s a suspicion not grounded in fact. As the Times article noted the movie makers usually bring their own generators with them. You may be right but until the investigation has been completed we won’t know the answer.

I joined recently. Some of the threads are ok but some do appear to be silly.

Those models, as Kevin notes, are a little pricey and I wouldn’t want to spread more than the price of a new Touch.

I read the article as well as the New York Times story about the fire and it's a shame, not to mention a tragedy that one of NY’s finest died in the blaze. However, it’s premature for the writer to assign blame when the investigation has just begun.

Now, that’s the way the Glider should look! The Mets announcers were saying today that the Rays have gone to a 4 man rotation. Every fifth game will be a bullpen game. Something new.

I'm sure you're right. I'm not that finicky. My iPod is starting to act up again. I will probably need to get a replacement very, very soon.

I seem to recall that the Mariners wanted to get rid of him.
