Wikipedia: About Strunk & White, the writer Dorothy Parker said that: If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second-greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first-greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they're happy. 21

Mets in midseason form I see.

Paperback copy of Han Solo and the Lost Legacy, in pristine shape
Church book sale find: Brian Daley’s wonderful third Han Solo novel, with the spine never so much as cracked. I own it so I left it to be someone else’s lucky find.

Love this! Like me, Randy Kula has a set of The Holy Books -- only he collected every player who ever took the field for the Guardians, not the Mets. (SO MUCH HARDER!) He just found the last picture he needed, adding Shorty Gallagher to the ranks. Salute to a kindred spirit and a quest completed!

This is incredibly cool, a story told in English where every paragraph steps back in time to an older form of English. I am super proud I got to 1000 before it was entirely incomprehensible

Searching eBay for minor-league baseball cards of guys who have a chance to pitch 2.1 innings of relief for the Mets at the tail end of a 7-2 loss come June. This what I do in February trying to make the calendar hurry the f up.

Based on the number of legal services ads during spring training, Mets fans are primarily traumatized accident victims who want to sue.
Hmm. Actually that tracks.
The Mets! On TV!

NWS forecast that shows Brooklyn getting an unholy amount of snow on Sunday and Monday.
I am going to hunt down Punxsutawney Phil. I will find him and then I will grind his bones to make my bread.
