The Atlanta Braves won the World Series last night. If you read any of my TV posts you will know that I am a Braves fan and have been staying up late to watch all of the games. Here is a short history of my life as a Braves fan. I started watching the Braves … More My Life As a Braves Fan
Until last year, we have gone to at least one baseball game every season. We are Braves fans, so we go to a game when they are in town to play the Nationals. My daughter recently said she wanted to go to a game so we bought tickets. This year we could have chosen to … More My Night at the Baseball Game
Every morning I look at Timehop and my Facebook memories. They reminded me that past me has done a lot on this date. One year I was in Zambia and walking a cheetah. One year I was in Sedona with my family. This story is about how it came about that ten years ago I … More Throwing Out the First Pitch

I am an Atlanta Braves fan living in the DC area. The only good thing about the Washington Nationals is that I have a chance to see the Braves play live each year. Tis year we looked at the schedule and decided to buy tickets to a Saturday night game. It was perfect. It was … More Baseball Day Due to Rain
Last night during the MLB All Star game, someone found some old tweets from Brewers pitcher Josh Hader. These tweets included the n-word, white power and a statement that he hated gay people. Terrible stuff. They were tweeted 7 years ago when Hader was a 17-year-old high school kid here in Maryland. There are a … More Some Thoughts on Josh Hader
I was out early on my Friday off to run some errands and to take my phone in to the Apple store because it was having issues charging.
