How long will baseball be that... spinning wheel?

You know, when people are getting sick and some dying, it's just greedy and insensitive to complain about missing entertainment.

Maybe they figure out how to make it happen in Arizona.
Maybe it's 7 inning games - I don't really care about whatever wacky modifications they make, but the bottom line is safety.
Until then, here's more quarantine stuff...




We had a zoom chat with my son and his girlfriend for his birthday, and they broke out an improvised talking pineapple to brighten... everything.


And finally, so many robins are out!
