Nothing says "we trust that our players or managers aren't trying to influence the outcome of prop bets" than extending coverage for a bet to their replacement.
Peanut (B) and Butter (F) are my orange cat 🐈 brother bro's. Patty 🌈 was our calm black cat 🐈⬛.
It is a very comfortable recliner and is the perfect size for Butter. I may never get to sit in it again.
@wx1box.bsky.social Now at 3.06" at the home QTH in Peace Dale, RI since the storms on Saturday night. It's 2.45" so far for yesterday and today.
Very low activity day today for Peanut and Butter since first thing this morning. This is the first day they've spent most of their time in a room that has AC.
I have pictures of my son at a Martin O'Malley event at Grinnell College from August 2015. He's in the front row with the black t-shirt. In defense of his looking bored/tired: 1) He had been working on a farm that was a 10+ mile bike ride away on a hot August day. 2) It was Martin O'Malley.
This is Walter. He broke into my cousins house via what was a small opening in a screen. He now lives there and is in charge. It's just the rules. Resistance is futile.
Here is Butter grooming his brother Peanut. Amazingly, this did not turn into biting and then chasing. Peanut must have been very tired.
This is Walter. He was living mostly outside before he broke into my cousin's house one year ago today. Said house is now his forever home.
Patty, a cool as a cucumber rescued black cat, and Cheyenne , a highly neurotic papillon, sharing a friendly moment waiting for bedtime cuddles.
I said the same thing about additional licensing requirements for monster pickups this morning after encountering this in the grocery store parking lot.
Bob Nightengale reported he died and called him one of the finest people in baseball.
Who do you think you are Phil, a major league baseball player? Is Lennyn after Vladimir Illych or John, I wonder.
Just finished Butter's evening belly rub and ear scritches so he's nearby but resting.
Record #5 from the Record Store Day purchases is Belafonte at the Greek Theater. Sadly no Banana Boat Song but still enjoyable.
Record #4 from the Record Store Day purchases, the Funny Girl soundtrack with Barbara Streisand and Omar Sharif. Is any record collection complete without having Barbara singing "Don't Rain on My Parade"?
The 3rd Record Store Day selection is "Breezin'" by George Benson. I bought my first real stereo in 1977 and Masquerade was the song they used in the stereo store to sound out the system. I still miss my Harman Kardon 330C stereo receiver.
The 2nd Record Store Day selection being played today is Oscar Peterson at JATP (Jazz at the Philharmonic). Herb Ellis on guitar and Ray Brown on bass are also featured. This is a 1966 release featuring music recorded in 1953 and 1954 and previously released as part of the JATP series.
