Brooms on the bus

susandennisI thought my own neighborhood might be a little dotted with brooms and Yankee fans but I got on a bus north of town and it, too was full of both. And they were not all that happy to ride together.
Give a crappy team a couple of wins and they get really surly really quickly,
And, of course, Yankee fans are born surly.
Our bus drivers are not only not cute, they are not Canadian nice, either. On two different busses today, I snagged two entirely different ugly belligerent ones. Gimme Vancouver now, please.
But, the biscuits were delicious. I went to a new (to me) place for breakfast - a tiny place near the University that only started opening on Sundays today. They were very nice and the biscuits were very good but I wanted mine with 2 eggs over easy and bacon or sausage followed up with butter and maple syrup. Or with some country ham. They weren't that kind of place. They only had designer honey (for tea). No syrup of any kind. But it was cute and they were nice and I brought two buttermilk biscuits home with me.
Then on to my two retail errands. Then I spotted a branch of my bank and finally got those checks deposited, then I found the bus full of baseball fans and came home.
I just turned on the TV to find out that RootSportsNW, those great folks who bring us the televised broadcast had picked today to bring us BLACK. We got nuthin'. A tweet says they know about it and are working on it. I am sure heads will roll but I hope they fix it first and then start chopping those responsible.
I have the radio broadcast on my iPad which is better than nothing but the radio announcers suck and one of them makes my teeth ache.
Love it, just tweeted that I was using my iPad to get the game and got3 5 tweets of spam offering me a free stuff. iPad must be the secret word for Send All Links To Bad Stuff Her., Love the internets.
