The Summer Festival Season has come to a close as we gear up for the Autumn/Fall Festivals. I was able to take home a souvenir from a festival I attended this year. A couple of other attendees pointed it out.

With August coming to a close and the US Labor Day holiday around the corner the summer season is coming to a close. This also means that one of my favorite seasons (baseball) is winding down. Around this time teams are gearing up for a playoff push while others are looking forward to time off… Continue reading The Dog Days of Summer

I missed a few July Birthdays so this post is for them.

God willing I move past St. Pete and link up Screamin Jay and ask can you confirm which one I learned about first NY or OH. Typing that on just adds to confusion sike/psych (Gucci Mane Voice). The fellow from BK had a team that was familiar with Screamin Jay and so was the outfit… Continue reading New Books….

Something I can’t ever get back. The words I just typed have become a cliche. This is where a thesaurus wound come in handy but I’m not up to it right now.

It was during one of these meetings were Enos decided… Continue reading Better late…

I’m happy to say that, “today I learned” a television series based of the film “A League of their Own” is being created. I was listening to a satellite talk radio show and couldn’t believe what I just heard. As usual, I followed up with a search of my own, pun intended. I couldn’t decide… Continue reading Women’s History Month

Shout out to Carter G. W. I didn’t check my printed calendar so there was no post for Black History Month on the site. I though I had an extra day. I recently found out, #notdiscovered! Black History Month is only celebrated in a few countries…. You can probably count them on one hand. Sorry… Continue reading Date mix Up

There’s still no agreement between the league and the players…. A best guess from this troubadour/fan of the game is that we’ll most likely see a week or two of no Spring Training. That’s my best worst case scenario. Another part of me believes a week or more into the regular MLB season will be… Continue reading A Broken Circle
