I'm a palate cleanser like liquid drano.

Well I am sure Felser will ask for December but there's no way to artfully combine name and month so ...

That's exciting news!

I never noticed especially slow connections and right now, my browser if flying from page to page.

Doubtful - that tune is on the "Standards I don't need to hear ever again" list.

When it was bases loaded I turned away, was sure he was saving the worst performance of the year for the playoffs. I did come back to the broadcast for the last two outs, after switching channel with my eyes covered and slowly realizing that he had gotten the first out and it was still 3-1.

Obvious key for Game 2 is going to be the Sox making Rodon work and work to get him out of the game and get into the Yankee bullpen. For the Sox and Cubbies sake, I do like the odds in 3 game post-season playoffs for the game 1 winner to advance. No wonder Cora rode Crochet and Chapman so hard.

Sorry Met fans but $350 million to one player just doesn't buy what it used to .... <green smilie here> (and its all the better that Francona is the manager of the team that benefits from the Mets largesse. In all seriousness, the Sox have their work cut out for them, and so do the Cubs but its nice to be able to watch October baseball with an interest deeper than "Die Yankees, Die". And @Patrick - what they accomplished this season is quite remarkable, whatever happens. They didn't just beat September deficit - they obliterated it. I hope the magic continues.

Hearing about this book with NYC Jazzmen, I am curious if Percy France could be anywhere in there. Here's a snip from the Hot Doggett LP, it's the earliest photo I have of him - everything else from the 70s-80s when he was 50+

Do you understand why it is that Jomboy seems to think the box on the broadcast is not the box that would be used for challenges? Is the official challenge going to be different from the result you see with the naked eye watching TV? It's very confusing to me and doesn't make much sense. (And it has to be said that any ump missing 25 calls - 2 challenges a game per team won't fix that.)

I am sold so I just grabbed the lowest cost copy on amazon of the Sandke. Last year and into this year I have been finding and greatly enjoying those Moss CDs on the label. Heartily recommended.

All seems logical now but how is a copy leaking to a European seller and before any peep from Mosaic? I didn't even think they went to production until after a pre-sale period.

So that was earlier this year ... did Mosaic issue a set and not make an announcement? Or is this some sort of early reviewer copy, before they even hint at a release schedule?
