Take 5, D.

It's cold in Minnesota. I tried walking around last night with just a thin jacket on, no dice. Even after a couple of bourbons, it's still cold! Tigers - Cardinals Game 3 tonight, and I'm feeling stressed. They really shouldn't make the World Series fall at the same time as elections, it totally messes with my head for at least a solid month, and I don't recover until March or so. That said-

Minutemen - Take 5, D

Corona, or, The Glory of Man

It's bittersweet, being in the wrong city at the right time. Like last year's World Series, the last game of which I watched in a microbrewery in Seattle, surrounded by the type of people who wear scarves indoors, looking at us funny because we were drunk and cheering. Or when Emily was in Davenport, Iowa, while her Red Sox were ruining the Yankees' year over on the Eastern Seaboard.

It's hard to say anything about this recent baseball development. I guess I'll just say, if the Lions beat the Vikings today, it might be the best weekend for Detroit sports in a long time.
