Ambidexterity

Unlike other countries, we Americans drive in the right hand side of the road. So the steering wheel is on the left. Which means the ATM you Neanderthals drive up to use to do all your banking is outside your driver's side window. 

So unless you sit backwards, then your left hand has to do the work at that ATM. So how come I have to watch the clown show every time I drive up, with the door opening, some idiot hanging halfway out and using their right hand. I'll tell you why...

Because your useless. Being able to use both hands is a quality that sets us apart. Now, nobody is saying you have to write with both hands, or throw a fastball, or even high five. But not being able to lean a little, tap that PIN with the old southpaw and make a simple transaction should be ez. But you can't. Useless. 

Glutton For Punishment

I'm going to coach our 10U Travel team tonight. Regular HC can't make it do to a commitment, so I agreed. Problem is, they are awful. I would usually feel bad about saying that, but it's inescapable.

I've practiced with these boys once in a while. But I didn't know what it actually was until I helped out at a game last week. To say they are bad is an understatement. They can barely catch and throw, so getting three outs without giving up 6-7 runs is a challenge. And you can't win many games giving up 6 runs an inning.

What I like is the coaches telling me how bad their at-bats are. I know that. But you can't even think of hitting unless you can get off the field. That's why when I coached my son's teams we focused on D when we were young. We can step into one if we have to so we can get on base.

Wish me luck.

I have two days off work coming up so that is AWESOME!

Baltimore Burns

The news is bleak in America's Northernmost Southern City. Sad.

April?

I don't know, I kind of remember the weather in April being a little kinder. April showers? OK, I like a shower. But April 2015 in the North J. has been brutal. Cold. Wet. Damp. Miserable.

I see the weather forecast mentions some 70+ degree days maybe this week. That would be tremendous. I've wathed too many HS and MS baseball games freezing the proverbial balls off.

Forsaken Coffee

SoulSlam stopped drinking coffee about 9-10 weeks ago. I have had one cup in a restaurant since then so I guess I'm done.

I didn't do it for any other reason than I stopped putting sugar in it. At that point I realized I didn't really need it. So I stopped. Just like that.

Now I drink a glass of OJ cut with H2O in the AM. I'm not sure if this is a permanent thing but it is what it is for now.

The Almost Return of Winter

April 23...and we had snow today. Flurries, yes. No accumulation, I know. But snow anyway. Blah. 

I'm watching the KC-ChiSox game in MLB channel. I nominate Hawk Harrelson for biggest homer d-bag of them all. Put it on the booaaarrrrdssss!

Hello? Hello?

I'm at doctors office. Got a bad ring ring ring in my ears. Driving me crazy. Stay tuned.
