    Quote from max.patch: “I finally got around to looking at the SI baseball preview so I could move the magazine from the coffee table to the recycling bin. In the team preview they made predictions for each team in 2030. Spoiler alert -- Tampa is moving to Charlotte in 2028 and led the league in attendance the first 3 years they were there.

    I was watching 60 minutes back in 2017 when they ran a segment on someone I had never heard of before -- a 22 year old pitcher from Japan who both pitched and hit and apparently wasn't going to be interested in coming to MLB unless a team allowed him to do both. Found it on YouTube. youtube.com/watch?v=xy1vT19pSyo

    Quote from Astro: “Quote from max.patch: “3) Alfred Hitchcock in just about everything he did. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_…ances_by_Alfred_Hitchcock ” He made so many good ones, but my favorite was North by Northwest. ” When someone mentions that movie I immediately think of Cary Grant and the crop duster scene.

    Quote from Astro: “Quote from max.patch: “Ohtani should be hooked up to a lie detecter when he speaks to the media today. This reminds me of the picture released by Kate Middleton -- there's more to come.

    Fitbit because it's already on my wrist (I wear it 24/7) and just a couple clicks and its ready to go. All I really want to know is how far I went so I can record it in my log. I also have the AllTrails app on my phone because I got the advanced version for an incredibly silly price. I used it for about a week when my Fitbit died and I waited for the company to send my replacement. I use the app to search for new places to hike; primarily for when I'm in Arizona.

    Quote from max.patch: “The Bananas are coming to Atlanta for 3 games next March in the Braves AAA stadium. Tickets start at $35 and "meet and greet" tickets start at $100. Wow! The Bananas are making bank! Can't just buy a ticket either. They have a lottery and you have to get lucky. ” They play this weekend and the Atlanta newspaper had an article (behind a paywall) on the game. Here's what they said about tickets: Where can I get tickets? Resellers. The Bananas are the toughest ticket in baseb…

  • Quote from LIhikers: “Me and Kathy are thinking of starting one of those hostels, that ruins the trail, here on Long Island. It would require a veeery loooong blue blaze side trail. ” No blue blaze necessary. You'll shuttle them to the hostel, and they'll dip into their trust fund money and pay you for the ride

    Quote from odd man out: “The HF train station is only 430 feet from the trail. I guess that doesn't count as right on the trail. ” Does it count as one of those "on trail" hostels?
