Friday "Where Does the Time Go" Random 10+

[drpaisley]

Another week in the books. Much of work time spent on materials for a special display of "The Original Rules of Basket Ball" by James Naismith, which wiil be on display at the Nelson-Atkins Museum here in KC starting this weekend. We seem to be getting more work in, though in random bunches rather than a consistent supply. Still not enough to be going back to fulltime, alas.

And I'm busily putting together the first draft of Progress Report #4 for Renovation, this year's Worldcon. How does this keep happening to me? Oh, right, I keep saying "yes" when people ask me to do stuff like that (thanks, Tim!). At least I'm not doing the ConQuesT Program Book this year. Here's some music to celebrate the announcement that A Dance With Dragons will hit the bookstores on July 12, 2011. George said it in the internet, it must be true!

I have actually caught parts of two Royals spring training games on MLB, and we won both! Does this mean we won't suck this year? Probably not. But they just might be better than most people think. I'l settle for over 70 wins this year.

I will be taking a brief break from the grindstone to watch KU beat MU Saturday (11a start? What are you thinking, CBS? Barely enough time to wake up and grab a beer!) Rock Chalk!

The guys on the Vice Squad agree and have photos, but the DA says it's not an indictable offense.

And he should know, since he was the one holding the melon and working the turntable.

Hey, at least your not a Cubs fan. Need I say more!

The Royals are more than enough masochism for me. My mother is a diehard Cubbies fan, but she was born in Palatine, IL, so it comes naturally. When we moved from KC to Topeka in '65 and I discovered the joy of Harray Caray and Jack Buck on the radio and became a Cardinals fan, she was not amused.

The evil word: CARDINAL!?! Not amused, worried more like.
But, Harry Caray repented. Ok, he went to the southside first for the Sox before he was made worthy and broadcasted for the Cubs.

Now, the grand master of broadcast for the Cubbies was Jack Brickhouse! The one and only....30 years. His stories could keep you spellbound all by themselves!
