Oh come all ye faithful

Mythbusters

Hundreds of myths tested and still going strong. I've always enjoyed Mythbusters...and more so now that I'm in the Pacific Northwest...simply makes me miss the bay area so much more. In a recent trip to Vegas my brother and I saw Adam...we were right next to him in front of the hotel...alas I couldn't bring myself to be a fan and at least say hello and cheer for the show...yes, I am a chicken (why are chickens associated with cowardice?....hmm...a myth to bust?....or not :) ).

Steppin' up

The guys are really moving up. Matt Downs has shown great defense and production at the plate. The same can be said for Andres Torres. John Bowker is right behind them. I don't know about Travis Ishikawa. He just isn't getting any playing time and with Aubrey Huff producing well at 1st base, he may not have many chances unless he can play another position.

Can't we go back to our laughing ways? :)

A lot of tension in the Mariners dugout these days. Losing can really sour everything and anything. Laughter is the best medicine....well, it can help a bit, right?

Finally!

It had been a long eight game losing streak for the Mariners. I watched one of those games and let me tell you....I can deal with the cold air...but watching a losing game....I was freezing! Anyway, glad a win was finally achieved....sadly at the expense of firing the hitting coach and calling up two more guys from the minors.

Tekzilla

One of the perks of the Roku streming device is that it makes brings you just that one last step to launch anything else that is available and this made me curious about the available content (other than MLB and Netflix!) and Tekzilla from Revision3 has been a nice discovery. I enjoy the dynamic between Patrick Norton and Veronica Belmont. It helps feed my inner geek as well ;).
