[dropcap style=”font-size: 55px; color: cyan;”]E[/dropcap]ver since I was a little boy, I’ve followed the (mis)adventures of the San Francisco Giants. My father took me to my first baseball game when I was in the first grade, about six months or so after my first San Francisco 49ers game. When I was that young, I think …

It’s Bigger on the Inside
Yesterday’s prompt was about Guilty Pleasures, and I missed that one, so I’m going to take care of that with tonight’s post. When I think of what I consider to be a guilty pleasure is something that I like but I’m embarrassed to admit. The problem with that is that I’m unabashed at proclaiming my …

The Autumn Dream
I have awoken from the Autumn Dream. Some short comments: – akai SKY was awesome, and should have played last in the Battle of the Bands. – Stage Crew ruled all. – It’s too bad we never got the Internet to work. – I may be too old to pull 22 hour days. – My …
