1. People, friends, Burghers, my loves, I have lots of emails to respond to (I’m looking at you, Goob, Tracy, Kathleen, DW, and maybe 400 more), and I’m going to get to them. Watch your email boxes.
2. OMG. Srsly. Matt Capps. Inventing new ways to blow saves. Can [...]

I wrote about this before, this wish fulfilled by The Duke of Fug and the Earl of Gross and the Steelers and ESPN, and now, the video is done and available and I keep writing the word and because if I stop writing I’m going to cry a little, damn it.
First, the kid, his story. [...]

1. Doing my duty as the next carrier monkey, I obediently spread Texas Death (which may or may not be strep throat. I refuse to have a throat culture done because I tend to violently shove people that intentionally gag me) right on to Pens Fan Sister whose husband called me yesterday all, “Yeah. She [...]

The Asshat has had about enough of this earning his money shit:
Holmes doesn’t care much for all the football practices that take place in the “offseason” and would like to see coaches reduce the amount of time players spend on the practice fields from April into June.
Toward that end, Holmes called his own timeout over [...]

1. I would be a lot more willing to add paper to the copier/printer if someone would invent a ream of paper covered with a plastic that’s easy to open. Until then, I’ll just not print anything until the intern gets to it.

1. Good sunny and perfect morning to you, Burghers. This morning on my way into town, I noticed that for a long time there have been two crater-like potholes on the Waterfront road that have been circled with white spray paint. The potholes appeared six months ago and the spray paint, maybe [...]

Two Mikes and a Matt, and no, that’s not a new shittastic situation comedy coming to CBS this Fall, that’s actually three different readers that emailed me a link to this story about a spa in New York that if you give it $200 will allow you to lie down on your back while they [...]

1. If I’m making any part of this up, may a pigeon poop on my new handbag while I’m waiting for the bus. Yesterday I headed to Sister of PittGirl’s house for a relaxing swim and maybe for some tanning. At one point Sister and I were sitting in the shade under a [...]

You said about the Penguins:
“They made it further this year than they did last year, and there’s nowhere to go but up from here.”
I’m not sure which field of learning applies to the concept of up/down — maybe architecture, maybe physics, maybe engineering, maybe kindergarten, but let me explain something to you:

There’s thinking that The Duke is fug and gross, and then there’s outright hating the Duke.
There’s thinking that The Duke probably doesn’t deserve his minions’ unfailing love, and then there’s outright wanting to see The Duke die a horrible, violent death.
Someone in the Las Vegas police department REALLY falls in the Outright Hate/Die a Horrible, [...]
