Doohickie

Creep is one of the very best songs to cover. And this guy nails it, in my opinion.

I enjoyed that game. I've watched games in that building and I can testify that is one LOUD arena. The crowd was jet engine loud all third period.

Probably if they put it into some kind of trust where it was held in trust for some number of years, with small portions doled out to the kids per year? (I am certainly not a tax lawyer.)

It's way over a million dollars. It's currently $13.61 million under an act that expires next year; if not extended it will revert back to "only" $5.6 million. The $13.61 million figure, incidentally, is keyed to inflation, which may well be yet another factor why corporations are pushing up prices: Not only are they pocketing more, but their kids get to keep more when they die.

This guy?

Yep.

That felt inevitable. The Lesser Satan defeats the Great Satan.

Wow, amazing.

We've had a lot of rain this spring. The plants are loving it.

Try this.

Left handed ...because of course he is.

You started it. You can close it.

No one can figure out your insurance plan.

Fair put. Guilty as charged.

Can't do nothing about it unless I want to leave them and start following another team. Winning matters. That's all I care about.

A little local flavor from Dallas. Bally Sports is still televising the games in this market, with local commercials. This one is by a health care chain and depicts Jake Oettinger as a superhero:

Back in the 17th century, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth occupied Latvia (and much of Estonia).

My point really is: Maybe Kevyn didn't talk to a single person besides Lindy. If that's what happened, I would call his "double digits" statement a white lie and move on.

That's kind of my point. I don't care. Just win.

I think Bill Belichick is a royal butthead, but if he coached hockey, at this point I'd be in favor of hiring him if he could bring some Ws to the Sabres. At this point that's about all I care about.

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.
