On my trips out to Wisconsin, I bring home a block of cheese or two. The first time was two years ago. I bought the cheese at the airport in Milwaukee. This year on the trips up I bought cheese at this store. At the airport in Green Bay, they shake me down thinking this cheese is a block of C4. In reality, this cheese is the bomb. Pardon me while I go make a grilled cheese sandwich with 7 year old sharp cheddar.
“Pure evilness?”
This is how they troll Orioles fans at Cooperstown. The Amazing Mets? Pittsburgh Pirates? Really, Cooperstown, really?
“Lisa, if you don’t say anything, it makes it kind of hard for me to contradict you.”
This is what you’ll see at Cooperstown if you are an Orioles fan. Maybe one day, there will be more joining them. Maybe like in my lifetime.

I went and tried to get more playoff tickets.
I thought it would be nice to invite anyone and everyone along for the second game of the ALDS. I got the chance this afternoon. As a season ticket holder, I had the chance to purchase another 2 tickets to any of the ALDS games.
I went 10 minutes into my scheduled time at 1400. I got a 2 tickets for Game 1. I selected seats for Game 2. No dice the first time. I tried a different section. No dice the second time. I worked my way down the list towards the cheaper and cheaper seats. No dice the third and fourth times.
Then I refreshed my shopping cart and tried again from the beginning.
Wait. There’s no Game 2 available.
Darn.
Now, I have to figure out who to take the first game and who the take for the second game.
Who wants to go?
“How much have you done so far?” “The outline.” “How long is it?” “Two words:the, outline.”
It has been a long time since a wrote a post about baseball or the Orioles. I didn’t have much to say lately or I didn’t know what to say. I see that my last post was from the 2012 season. There was a few from 2013, but nothing really. What is there to say about last year? It wasn’t this year!
Woohoo! Orioles won the American League East division! And I was there. I can not believe it. They did well.
This wasn’t like 2012. It was no surprise. It was a methodical beatdown of the AL East. They started slow, but as the year heated up, so did the Birds. They played better and better. And here we are.
AL East Champs!
Let’s go Orioles!

Who the hell is U2? Why did their album just show up on my iPod? Do people still play rock music?
So you got free stuff from Apple, but you don’t want it.
Well, here’s how to remove it.

How can I not give you a link to a feature on Phil Hartman for NewsRadio Quote Month? It’s for his work on SNL, but it can be applied to NewsRadio. RIP Mr. Hartman. I wish we had more years of you playing characters on the big and the small screens.
“What kind of fire water have you been drinking there, Little Chief?”
Kutiman has made another mashup YouTube video. Like his others, this one is pretty awesome. It’s amazing how this guy can mix things together. If you watch each individual YouTube video, you wouldn’t know how to stitch it into another song. Kutiman does, and he works magic. I can’t wait to hear the rest of these.

I saw this thing on the internet that was a preview of a graphic novel about spooky stories. I believe I saw it on AV Club. The thing is I saw that a while ago and lost track of what the graphic novel was about. I’m still sure I saw it at the AV Club, but I can’t find it there.
You see I like spooky stories. I love ghost stories, haunted houses, getting the creeps, and goosebumps springing up on along the arm. If there’s supernatural things about, I’m there. So a graphic novel with scares is right about my alley.
But I didn’t know who wrote it, because I could not remember anything about that AV Club article. Was it even an AV Club article?
Yet, here we are I found it from a link at Slate.com. It’s by an artist, Emily Carroll, and she’s got plenty of ghastly graphic tales on her site. I want to check them out, then get the book.
