Houston Astros vs. old sea-hags 5/13/26

Accurate.

My wife just pointed out the silver lining: “It hurts less when you know it’s going to happen.”

Whaddayah know? Astros win 4-3 in ten innings.

Corollary: it’s that much sweeter when they unexpectedly come through.

Fugly win, but a W is a W, and your Houston Astros baseball club needed this.

Fuck the sea-hags.

I was just looking at the summary and I saw that a run scored on an Altuve walk and having seen a previous at bat when he struck out on a slider four feet off the plate I cannot wait to get home and see exactly what sort of pitch he would not swing at.

Warren Zevon. Goddamn, if you don’t cry listening to “Keep Me In Your Heart”, you’re just an asshole.

It’s one the purtiest songs ever, and this interview with Letterman knowing he was dying was epic-
“Enjoy every sandwich.”

I’m still crying from the first time I heard Carmelita 50 years ago Such a great song writer. Talent and crafty.

“You make choices and live with the consequences.”

The way Letterman handled Zevon’s farewell was simply perfect.

Emotionally powerful without trying to be.
