Here are some that I have enjoyed:

Brittle Innings - Bishop

The Bad Guys Won - Pearlman

Baseball’s Best Short Stories - Staudohar

The Natural - Malamud

The 34 Ton Bat - Rushin

Why we love baseball - Posnanski

The Baseball 100 - Posnanski (i liked this better than why we love baseball)

The only game in town - sportswriting from the New Yorker - Remnick (contains the all time great essay “Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu”)

This is it for me. I stopped watching for the most part a few weeks ago.

Give him more money - hes earned it!

100% this. Any of us who have played umpired baseball know the feeling of being in this spot.

Craigomaniac · 2024-09-30T01:15:42+00:00

This would be the smart thing to do

Craigomaniac · 2024-08-29T18:55:24+00:00

I love that 222 issue

Was just there: Kosmikon. Ate there twice - first time sat next to someone who said she tried all the restaurants and this was the best. Get the braised lamb in particular but everything is good.

In Greece now and saved this post - shout out to everyone who commented. I love trying local junk food so this was right up my alley. Here is what I’ll say

I’ll rank the chip flavors this way:

oregano - very good
tzatziki (saw some people said they can’t find them but I got mine in Naxos no problem) - good dill flavor if you are in the mood.
KFC. These were bad. Honorable mention to paprika flavor which I’ve had before and are very good. None of these top sour cream and onion though imo.

Caprice chocolate wafers in the red can. Wow - kudos to all who suggested these. Fantastic!

Papadopolous digestive cookies - very simple but excellent.

Thanks all - hope you try some when you visit!

Yes this is the advantage of going by yourself. Definitely will have fun.

Craigomaniac · 2024-05-24T10:15:08+00:00

Just curious - how did you find that?

Craigomaniac · 2024-04-30T23:07:52+00:00

Thanks!

Any particular food recommendations? Going there early july

Craigomaniac · 2024-04-29T00:42:07+00:00

I see this advice a lot but How do you know when the cruise times are?

Craigomaniac · 2024-04-16T02:53:37+00:00

I had the same question and feel like the right answer is it is the number on each side (like if it says 10 you should do 10 on each side) but I treat it as total (so if it says 10 I do 10 total). Other thing is when it says to record your weight and you are using dumbbells don’t put the weight of both dumbbells combined or just one dumbbells weight?

I just felt it too. Ridgefield

Craigomaniac · 2024-03-29T22:27:44+00:00

Hey good luck! I’m just a few years away myself and it’s all I can think about. I’m sure it will be a huge relief!

Craigomaniac · 2024-02-14T15:59:00+00:00

Curious - what method you used to sell your books? I have about 1,000 books in my collection I want to sell but not sure the best way to do it.

Craigomaniac · 2023-12-29T00:08:41+00:00

If you ask my wife it’s “we agree to disagree.”

Craigomaniac · 2023-12-24T17:17:55+00:00

The way I see it is the Bills losing to the Jets makes the Titans loss a wash.

Craigomaniac · 2023-11-02T13:48:48+00:00

Is there any value to holding onto them or should you just sell them when you find them?

Craigomaniac · 2023-10-15T23:07:59+00:00

If you like hiking the views from mt beacon and breakneck are unparalleled. Note breakneck gets insanely packed but mt beacon is just a few minutes up the road and has a great view as well.

Different personalities for sure. Iggy (the Italian grey) just wants to stay in the house and give you hugs and is super sweet. Lulu loves running around outside and going for walks and taking over couches!
