Better living through toy robotics.
Three pictures from my recent Spring Training trip.
First up is Raymond, the inexplicably furry mascot of the Devil Rays:
Next is Jim Thome, the Phillies slugger, at bat:
And last but not least, this disgusting thing is called a Belly Buster:
I did not partake of the Belly Buster, but everyone else around me did, and even that was enough to nauseate me.
Ah, it’s March, and charity is in the air.
Not 24 hours after teasing (gently!) a friend about donating some cash to Jason Kottke, I came across this solicitation from a very respectable baseball blog and couldn’t resist giving a few bucks to help. Of course, it’s not the same situation, but to each his (or her) own, I guess!
This blog will be inactive over the next few weeks in light of work obligations and a vacation down to Florida for Spring Training (I’ll be watching, not training). I’ll still be on AIM and reading everybody else’s blogs and visiting my usual haunts, though.
