News (or something like it)
04.30.01
It's the last day of April, which means, theoretically, that it shouldn't
snow any more until September!
My apologies for the long news bit, Tim is right -- that stuff belongs
in babble.

Spring or Summer?
Apparently 2001 is one of those years where we skip spring entirely and
go straight into summer.
After weeks of cold and rainy, it looks like we're finally warming up.
70* today, approaching 80* by Sunday.
Which of course, means only one thing...
I RODE MY BIKE TO WORK TODAY!!!!

We Suck
No new news. No new babbles. No new verbatims. No new links. No new porn.
Haven't updated RIAA, haven't posted to the message board.
At least the doodles are still coming through. But that's just because
I worked on those last week.
We suck, but the TWINS don't! According to the Strib:
"At 14-3, the Twins have a three-game lead over Cleveland in the
division. They set a team record for most victories in April,
and have won four consecutive series for the first time since 1996, when
they beat California, Seattle, Oakland and Toronto in
August."

R.I.P. Joey Ramone
Lymphatic cancer, died in New York at the age of 49 (according to Reuters)
or 48 (according to the Associated
Press.)
Either way, bummer. Their official web site is, duh,
OfficialRamones.com.

More Bizarre
The Minnesota Twins
have swept the Detroit Tigers. We're now 6-2 overall and are leading the
AL Central with a .750 winning percentage. I love our Twins, but I certainly
don't expect them to win. Weird.
Two days into EverQuest and Tim is obsessed. Based on my calculations,
he played for 7 1/2hours yesterday. (An hour before work, from 4:30-9:30,
and again from 11-12:30.) Send him email
urging him to return to his duties of updating GraphicActs!

Twins Win, Again, Tim Disappears
The Minnesota Twins whupped the Detroit Tigers again last night, 8 -2.
I know this because I signed up for daily box scores to be emailed to
me at the Baseball-Almanac.
Tim got his birthday present from me last night... EverQuest. Send him
email
urging him to return to his duties of updating GraphicActs!

Baseball!
It doesn't quite feel like spring here yet. Sure, it's not snowing, but
it's still cold, windy and rainy. The kind of weather that passes for
winter anywhere south of St. Louis, Missouri.
But we know for sure that it's spring, because today is the Minnesota
Twins home opener. (Get the schedule here.)
Anyone who says they hate the dome should go to a game today and envision
how "real" baseball "outdoors" would feel. Game time
is 7:05, sunset is 7:51. If you're lucky, it'll still be 40-45 degrees
outside. If you're not, it'll dip below the predicted low of 36 degrees.
Now sit out there for three and a quarter hours, the average length of
a baseball game. You think attendance is slim now...
But on a positive note, 5 games in, we're above the mendoza line. Go
get em!

Our bodies are in Minnesota, but our souls are still in Las Vegas! We

this shindig. Thanks to all the great folks we met. Etc. and blah blah
blah.

Proper Digs
Were staying in Jackie
Gaughans Plaza, a monument of "Old Vegas". Who needs
silly, leaky,pyramid shaped hotels when you can have the real shebang.
CheapoVegas
rates it well -- as well as they rate anything! Our friend Dave
Mordal, spent his first honeymoon there sometime in the early 1900s.
We spent our honey moon at the far superior Polynesian
Inn, Wisconsin Dells. Eat your heart out, Dave.
Also, a BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TIM! SEND HIM AN EMAIL, SHOW HIM YOUR
LOVE! Ew, dont show ME.

TITS! Were gonna see TITS!

Why Are We Here?
I dont mean the BIG "Why Are We Here?" Question. I mean, "Why are
we in Las Vegas?
Besides the obvious -- we crave sleazy entertainment, were here
for the Shecky Magazine
Comics Reunion]. We promise we will tell you all about it when we
get home. Every sleazy detail!
-Steph
TITS! Were gonna see TITS!
