    No longer Esther.  Were you in that crowd of 41000 yesterday?  Our future and even present look bright.  Means will  be back and Holliday is coming. And hoping for 6 in a row today

    I know Rick. It's not bad baseball at the moment.  

    I was not at the game yesterday, but we're getting ready to leave the house now for the game today.  Which, I'm sure since we're there, we will lose.

    My Orioles have won 10 in a row!!!  Hey Esther, if you are out there you must be happy like me?   I am going to fly the flag.  Why not.  I have been a loyal O's fan for my entire life. You know once again they have proven they can build from the depths of the minors and draft.   My only fear is the usual.  The big market teams like the one that stole Machado will be watching.  I just love Mountcastle, Hayes and this kid Rutchman.  Watch out.  Urias, Santander, Odor and Mullins are all contributing.  And the pitching!!!  How about these young pitchers and a couple vets in there.  Wells might be our ace right now with Means out. Imagine if we had Means.  We have Wells ready to go in Tampa and Kremer to follow and then Voth who played on the Wash team that won the Series. Watkins won in N Chicago last night.  Some place called Wrigley field.  W10 in front of the Orioles. After the all star game they get a couple of favorable series in the near future but the final stretch will be tough

    Makes me so damn mad that Boston has Trevor Story. What a crock of shit that is

    Go O's!!!!!  Playoffs now very possible

    I'm here Rick!  (I believe there's a post from me a little about this...)  

    It's a fun ride now.  I'm not going to project down the road (It's only the All Star break), but I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

    Angels can't even beat the Orioles. Rick, Baltimore should petition to be moved to the AL West or have the Angels moved to the AL East. 

    Hey, I take offense at that! What do you mean "can't even beat"?? We're not nearly as terrible as we've been...which is damning with faint praise I guess 😄

    You know Esther, the future looks bright for our team

    I agree Rick.  I think the pitching looks a lot better than we thought it would.  We'll see how it goes.

    So the Orioles took 3 of 5 from the Red Sox over the weekend. Has there ever been a 5-game series in the regular season before? That strikes me as being rare.

    I thought it might be because of weather, but now I think that they had to shift the schedule a week or so because of the late start (I did check and there haven't been any games postponed this season, so...). 

    Yay team!

    Thanks for that Esther

    Mrs CP is slowly getting better. She is still testing positive but I think she is over the worst

    Myself, I feel fine currently. Not half as bad as Mrs CP but just like I've got a heavy cold and even then I've had worse colds.

    It's the not going out and doing "normal" things that is most irritating. 

    Going to make a home made Pizza, Neapolitan style this evening. That should cheer us all up?

    Have you not had the dreaded lurgy at all?

    Dinner sounds wonderful (as usual!) - hope it did cheer you up.  I have managed to get this far without catching the dreaded bug... hope that keeps up!  So far, at least, masks and vaccines seem to work. 

    Hope you both are better soon!!

    Well after 2 and a bit years we have finally succumbed to Covid. First Mrs CP. She started to feel rough last Wednesday. Tested positive last Friday. I on the other hand steadfastly refused to let the bastard in. However, inevitably and annoyingly it got me. Tested positive this morning. To be honest I do feel a little tired and my head feels like it's stuffed with cotton wool. Ears are blocked and I feel like I have a heavy cold or I sniffed a bowl of Charlie.

    Good news. Mrs CP feels fine today and the line on the test chart is faint, so I hazard a guess she'll be negative tomorrow. Bad news. She said she wouldn't wish it on her worst enemy. Really looking forward to seeing what the next few days offers me. Hopefully I wont be as bad and I'll be back to normality soon.

    Oh my - please take care of yourselves!!!  I hope Mrs cp is definitely on the mend, and that you don't come down with anything worse than what you have now.  

    Damn...  so sorry to hear this.  Please let us know how things go.

    Who the fuck are the Guardians?

    FKA The Cleveland Indians.  Something to do with some statues on a bridge that are "Guardians of Traffic".

     

    I think.

     

    I don't really care.

    If only the Angels could play the Red Sox every game.

    My friend took his kid to the Dodger-Giant game at Dodger Stadium yesterday. Dodger Stadium is now a soulless corporate cashless place. You can't even get a real ticket anymore....it's all virtual over the phone. Parking is $30. 

    Not just Dodger Stadium.  Camden Yards is also cashless and tickets are mobile only.   Parking, however, is "only" $10.

    My mother died on Thursday, so I'll be taking a break from the Internet for a while. I'm not looking forward to family showing up to tell my dad, sister, and I how sorry they are, but I can't stop them from coming. It's a good thing she didn't want a funeral because I couldn't sit through some priest droning on about life after death and heaven and all that other BS.

    As a PSA, if you smoke...quit. I don't care if you think it'll be hard, fucking do it. 

    I'm so sorry.  My heart is with you.
