We had another TACO Tuesday and I wasn’t even paying attention. But, yeah, those tariffs are definitely gonna work. One of these days. Maybe.

Did you hear that MAGA is trying to get the card game of contract bridge declared illegal? It seems some Democrat won a hand with a bid of No Trump.

Chuck Norris actually died several years ago. It just took that long for the Grim Reaper to work up the courage to go get him.

Indiana vs Oregon in the national semifinals? Is it March Madness already?

One of my nephews turned 16 this week. His mother did not find it amusing when I asked what he wanted for his birthday, blonde, brunette or redhead. I think she’s afraid he might want to unwrap his present.

The Rock&Roll Hall Of Fame has been legitimized with the selection of the great, great, GREAT Warren Zevon. It was like the Pro Football HOF not having Joe Namath in. Congrats to the late, great Warren Zevon and his family and friends. David Letterman is smiling somewhere.

Gotta love Texas weather. 80 degrees when I went for lunch, 58 and falling fast less than six hours later.

Weirdest damn baseball game I’ve ever been to. Who are the Sidney Thunder and Perth Scorchers? Does BBL stand for Base Ball League? I need ⁦@Boys_Vox⁩ and ⁦@BabeLaufenberg⁩ to explain just what’s going on here.

Perth played just good enough to get beat. Kinda like some other teams I’m familiar with.
74
Sidney pulls it out on last pitch, 179-177.. pitching and defense, y’all.
47
And its a two-run game with one oitch tibgo
29
And one of those six-run homers gets Sidney to 163 with six pitches to go.
47
A flat out drop followed by a nice running over-the-shoulder catch. Inside a minute and Perth just needs to hold on for eight pitches.
37
Sidney has the deficit down to 47 runs and the batter hits a weak fly for an easy out. With 13 minutes on the clock, I think Perth is just trying to stall it out.
37
And the guy who was invited to hit the showers just made a heads-up play for an out. I guess they’ll keep him around a little longer.
31
Sidney gets to 85 runs with just one out and the Perth fans are getting a bit restless. Sounds like some players would contribute more from the dugout. Similar to some MLB games I’ve attended.
28
Perth got a quick out early, but Sidney has chipped away to get to 55. Have these people never heard of pitching and defense?
43
Pert outfielders might oughta play a little deeper. Just gave up three runs on a soft fly ball over their heads.
