I guess I’ll have to check this Lana Del Rey out now.
All of this is to say that Hong-Chih Kuo is awesome, and that the Dodgers—a team without a real owner and with an idiot for a general manager, an idiot who signed Aaron Harang and Chris Capuano and Jerry Hairston and Mark Ellis to two-year deals this offseason)—could have been quite silly in nontendering him. It should surprise no one when Seattle flips Kuo for gems in July. He’s great.
Ugh.
I’m almost offended that they claim Angle was beaten badly by Harry Reid because of what he did in the campaign. She was trounced because the people of Nevada flat out rejected her. He didn’t need to campaign against her at all.
This expresses a lot of what I feel about Apple. I began with a Mac in 1996 and struggled through a few years until my first iMac. Then things got great. In 2008 I almost bought a Blackberry (I have no idea why) when my phone contract expired. Luckily, we decided on iPhones and they changed how we communicated. I trust them, which is more than I can say about just about every other company.
Lesson: go at a reasonable speed to avoid having to hit the damn brakes. The fast people cause issues just as much as the slow ones.
The first draftee I can remember. Sad story.
