Anywho when we got the tarpon about 10’ from the boat, a massive 15’ plus hammerhead came out from under the boat and nailed it. Ate the whole damned thing right there. It was an incredible sight, the captain was awestruck.; 3/30/23, 11:54 AM

Is there a word for when protesters stop the proceedings of government to prevent the proper functioning of the institution?

@tedcruz
Last year, I filed legislation to substantially enhance the physical security of schools & to double the number of police officers in schools.

Dems blocked it with ZERO justification.

I cannot tell you how angry I am about this! Senate Dems weren't willing to do what it takes.

Mark said...: Surprised that the Disney vs DeSantis situation update has not been blogged.

While ol' puddin' fingers was trying to remove Disney's appointment of board seats, Disney had the board vote to hand over power back to Disney.

Now they are trying to figure out how to undo what was legally done while they were holding press conferences talking about how they won ... while being billed almost a grand an hour.; 3/30/23, 3:33 PM

Sometimes the toilets backup and flood the clubhouses. The ownership wants to move to Las Vegas, so they want to discourage fans from attending the games with a ballpark that's a dump.

Mike of Snoqualmie said...: The pitch clock sped up last nights Mariners-Guardians game. Game time was 2:14. Last year, it would have been about 3 hours. Our dog heartily agrees with the pitch clock, but it was too fast for my wife to do a proper job of scoring the game.

The game seemed rushed. The pitcher would usually begin his motion with about 3-5 seconds left. In the bottom of the 8th, the Cleveland pitcher (Karinchak) took to long and got penalized with a ball. The unnerved him, and the next pitch was airmail. The crowd started counting down, trying to unnerve him further. He gave up a 3-run homer, which was the only scoring in the game.

The pitch clock is too rushed. It should be adjusted to 20-seconds/25-seconds, empty bases and occupied bases, respectively, instead of 15/20.; 3/31/23, 1:23 PM
