five hits, tough loss

the good news is the team i subbed for tonight wants me to pitch for them every week and i pitched and hit well going five for five from the last line-up spot and keeping a great hitting team off balance... the bad news is they came back to tie it 8-8 in the fifth, then they came back to tie it again 13-13 in the seventh, and then they won 15-14 in the eighth... given we were playing with three outfielders and the other team had power hitters (they hit the fence three times) and the middle of our line-up did not hit well at all, we did very well to hang in and take it to eight innings... there was even a delay as the lights went out with me on the mound with two outs, bases loaded, a 1-2 count on the batter, and the score tied 8-8... when the lights came back on i got the guy to foul two off for the third out... still, they were a better team overall, especially when we were fielding only nine players... the team we played is 2-1 and their only loss is to the first place 2-0 team... before today the team i just joined was 0-2...

not bad on one hour of sleep with a major head cold bug... yeah, another entry...

as are many dozens of others waiting for time...

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
