Interleague Play These interleague games are great for baseball. I got to see the New York Mets live at the Dome for the first time in my life the other night. Better yet, I got to see the Mets get crushed and humiliated by the Twins for the first time. And again, for the second …

Iceman Versus Captain America Remember those great articles by Evan Wright in Rolling Stone last summer (The Killer Elite, From Hell to Baghdad and The Battle for Baghdad)? They were pretty damn good weren’t they? Well, Mr. Wright would like Afrojet readers to know that his new book with, “considerable expansion/change of those articles is …
Mill City Museum Finally got around to visiting the Mill City Museum this weekend. I was blown away. Top notch. A beautiful addition to the Mississippi waterfront. When I worked downtown, I used to bike by the development of the museum every day. It’s great to see the completion. The award winning architecture developed by …
Bad Start Man, what a terrible morning the driver of this Volvo is having. You’re driving along, rocking out in your car thinking about all the things you have to do today and then – Bam! Your whole day is thrown into turmoil. Let’s be careful out there.

Scooter Du Reading Bob Mould’s Blog, I ran across this funny little Sooter Du event happening here in Minnesota later this summer. I know nothing about the scooter scene here in the Twin Cities but it looks pretty cool. Meet my new best friend. We’ve been spending a great deal of quality time together. I’m …
Win or Go Home Watched the Kevin Garnett Show last night. That kid is such a crushing talent, an absolute powerhouse of a man. His intensity on the court is so visceral. He makes all other toys on the court look like small wobbly children. I saw a lot of the players on both teams …
