During the last two weeks of the year, it’s complete chaos. I only had Jingle Jangle for dinner. I drank four beers at lunch. Down is up.

Now that he signed with the Angels, Drew Pomeranz is one team away from being the first guy to play for all five California teams.
Rickey Henderson and Rich Hill are two that came close. Let’s hope Pomeranz pitches well, the Halos stink and the Dodgers grab him for the stretch run.

Man, the week before Christmas is slow no matter if you’re 51 or 11. I woke up this morning and was convinced it was Thursday.
It’s Tuesday.

“California Love” by Dre and Tupac is a classic. No doubt about it.
But describing Watts as “Good Old Watts” is weird and sounds like something the Little Rascals would say.
Or a backhanded compliment the rest of the Rolling Stones would give to their drummer.

The cool thing about Thanksgiving week is that it kicks off where we get a bunch of time off from work.
Then MLK weekend hits and nothing until Memorial Day.
We should do something about that.

@jessethorn.bsky.social I’m about a third of the way through this week’s DoughBoys and your stories about Bill Withers and Dustin Diamond are amazing.
You’re truly a terrific storyteller.
Any plans for a book about the 25 years of Bullseye with tales like these?

In what might be his last start in his HoF career, Max Scherzer is taking the bump tonight against Shohei Ohtani in Game 7 of the World Series.
I don’t even know what else to say.

I have to watch more television and pay better attention to stuff.
I settled in for a night of laughs and fired up what I thought was a “Derry Girls” spinoff called “Welcome to Derry”.
Gang, it’s not.

In the 1960s Marvel introduced a ton of cool villains like Dr. Doom, Magneto and the Green Goblin. They also created one called Paste Pot Pete.
I think about Stan Lee coming up with this name when I’m overwhelmed at work.
