Not giving Springer MVP for that series is a massive injustice

Never been happier to be wrong about how I thought this series would end after that disastrous 8th inning in Game 5. Go Jays Go!!! #BlueJays #ALCS #WorldSeries

It's already 9:30 PM EST and we are only in the 4th Inning. Tomorrow morning is going to suck.

Nellie was one of Canada's "Famous Five", 5 suffragists from Alberta (my birth province and where I consider 'home' despite living in Ontario for 30+ years).

This album serves as a pretty decent reminder for me that the early 90's wasn't about one type of music. We listened to everything. Punk in some dive bar one day, alt-rock hits at a dance club the next, glow sticks and a warehouse the day after that and hip-hop in-between. #vinyl #nowspinning

I should pay closer attention but when I ordered this online I thought it was a single 12" reissue of the album not 3x10" with 2 tracks per side. Still glorious deep dub vibes. #vinyl #nowspinning #dub

Punk Song-A-Day #249: Gogol Bordello - Immigraniada (We Comin' Rougher). Great song for this weekend. Great song for any weekend. Great song for any time. I need to see them live again. Also need to grab those recent vinyl reissues. youtu.be/aKpgb2WrGo0?... #punk

The better half is grumpy because she came downstairs and the coffee wasn't brewed. In my defence I thought she was sleeping in and wanted it to be fresh when she woke. So cheering her up with this... the response "Kinda energetic for this early in the morning isn't it???" #vinyl #nowspinning

Duran Duran - Duran Duran LP

Only thing I know about them is the doot do doot do song and that it’s about meth and I’d like to keep it that way.

He might tell us that, but he would be wrong.

Pretty good bass player as well

Another one of Benn's great quotes ""What power have you got? Where did you get it from? In whose interests do you exercise it? To whom are you accountable? And how can we get rid of you?"

Picked this up today to round out the Kate Bush in my collection and it put a smile on my face to discover a Peter Dunn's Vinyl Museum inner sleeve. Those who know, know. #vinyl #nowspinning

Morning listening. Forecast for 22°C today which is unusual for late October in this part of the country. I would rake leaves but they have barely turned colour yet much less fallen.

The better half, who is a huge Jays fan, says we have lost the series after tonight and Schneider will be fired for this. He has done it before.

Punk Song-A-Day #248: Ministry - ANTIFA. Stay safe tomorrow Americans... but not too safe. Fuck shit up! Get those Christofascists hiding under their beds. youtu.be/hTkywyKV-9U?... #punk

Well that was a disappointing game. WTF Schneider??? Why the hell are you putting Little (who hasn't been effective in months) on the mound in the 8th with only a 1-run lead when Hoffman and Dominguez are both available?!?!?

Those were not 'kids', that flag wasn't an 'optical illusion', Portland and Chicago are not war zones, peacefully protesting the Trump administration is not 'hating America', bombing fishing boats in international waters is state-sanctioned murder, Palestine will be free, and Trump raped children.

We got a series now!!! Let’s GO!

Punk Song-A-Day #247: Skin Yard - Snowblind. Dedicating this track from his '78 solo album to Ace Frehley (RIP). From 'Hard to Believe: A Kiss Covers Compilation' that came out in 1990 and featured the mostly unknown (at the time) bands Nirvana and The Melvins. youtu.be/-rulckU8fFg?... #punk
