After the 15 inning playoff game the other day, I saw a proposal that after each extra inning, one player on each team is replaced by a dog.

I am also imagining another Bookshop dot org customer who ordered books about Christian development, but has received instead books with "Murderbot" in the title, and I feel a little badly for them.

It's arguable that the Murderbot books are also about the difficulties involved in developing spiritual maturity, but I would prefer to read the books I ordered.

The package was delivered this morning, but the box contained instead two copies of a book called __Discipleship: A Path to Spiritual Maturity__ by Laurie Chapman and Rick Chapman.

I ordered __The Murderbot Diaries Vol. 2: Rogue Protocol, Exit Strategy__ and __The Murderbot Diaries Vol. 3: Fugitive Telemetry, System Collapse__ by Martha Wells.
