I am not a fan of air travel that starts at night and ends the following morning. There are times when I'm able to power through and be somewhat productive. Case in point the 2023 trip Whit and I took to Edinburgh with the boys. In that situation, "power through" meant "start drinking Guinness and Innis & Gunn as soon as possible and use the momentum to coast into the evening".
Today, though, I'm on the wrong end of a shortish redeye from Denver to Dulles that followed an excellent weekend with my kidlet and several FoG:TBs in Boulder. There was a lot of food. And drink. And wildly exciting college football. All of which has left me happy and extremely drained.
So in the spirit of powering through, content-wise, you guys wanna see Christopher Walken playing a squirrel in an advertisement for an investing platform? Of course you do.

I’m a strong airplane sleeper… unless a good entertainment sitch distracts me. On a plane right now headed to Maine. Twin bill of work meetings and seeing my mom.
I was just up here a month ago, when the weather was a little warmer and the Sox were still well situated to make a run. I’ll keep my mouth shut about it in Bath, Maine, if not on the blog. Sorry, Robert.
Here’s a big BUT… the Mets have done almost exactly what they needed to since the last update. Swept the Nats convincingly and took 3 of 4 against the Phils. Hell yes. If they take 2 of three against the dreaded Braves, the Metsies are playoff bound.
Instinct and the scars of yesteryear have me trained to expect a complete collapse in Atlanta at this point. That said, I’m feeling a different vibe from this group. We shall see, but I like these dudes’ chances right here right now.
Let’s. Fucking. Go. Mets.
Could the Mets be this year's team of destiny? I don't see any obvious favorites heading into the postseason.
I'm also a very strong airplane sleeper but I really hate late night flights - red eye or otherwise. I'm shit the next day.
Also, while it's doubtful we'll get much more than lots of wind and rain from the storm brewing in the gulf, I'd really like to take a "hurricane day" on Thursday and do a whole lot of nothing.
my sister tells me that schools in duuuuuval are already canceled thursday and friday. you should head up there.
Same for my sister in Tallahassee. FSU closed as well. My nieces and nephews are already stocking up on "supplies", I'm quite sure.
Home Depot and Wal-Mart? Perhaps not.
I think you know better, Whit.
how'd you hit 'em, danny?
William and Mary down to #54 in US News’ most recent. Wtf?
I also knew better about the Mets. Suck.
