A little baseball history in San Francisco tonight.

Alyssa Nakken, the first female coach in MLB, became the first female coach on the field of an MLB game when she came out to coach first base for the Giants in the bottom of the third inning. She had previously done this in some spring training games.

Congratulations, Alyssa.

The next time a religious person tells you

he doesn't mind Atheists, but he doesn't like it being crammed down his throat (I don't know why, but these people seem to have a fixation about things going down their throats, but that's another topic for another thread), ask them if their cable provider is forcing them to pay for any Atheist channels.

Am I the only one

who cannot stand the taste or even the smell of Curry? My wife loves the stuff and sometimes when she cooks it I make an excuse to go outside and do something. I don't know why I don't like it, because I have a pretty broad range of foods that I like.

So I wonder how many republicans are wondering

where the money for their next campaign is going to come from.

Remind any republican you know

That they voted twice for a president who wanted to destroy NATO.

We don't need an all-out exchange of nuclear missiles to declare a winner

of this war. We need a single bullet into Putin's head by someone who can get close enough to do it. I hope that person exists.

What are gas prices doing where you live?

I had not been out for a few days, but I went out today and prices at the cheap places have risen about four cents since the invasion began. I live in Northen California and I know my area may not be typical because it is a resort area and gas prices are usually a bit inflated most of the time anyway. We are at $4.59. It was $4.55 this time last week.

At the state of the union address on Tuesday,

will the republicans sit on their hands every time the Democrats applaud Biden?

It's snowing here right now.

Just a little bit and I'm sure it won't stick. We're about 150 miles north of San Francisco at an elevation of 1,300 feet, so it's kind of rare to get snow. Maybe once every five years.

A big thanks to Putin

for making the #1 news story for the foreseeable future something that Joe Manchin has no power over.
