God bless the indian summer

Here's Craig Finn doing Take me out to the ball game (video), and it's better than Boys and Girls in America

It's snowing today, and, while it made for a very nice ride home tonight, it's probably going to bring out the complainers (aka Minnesotans) regarding the new Twins stadium. It's as if people here think it actually doesn't precipitate anywhere but Minnesota. A whole season of rainouts (or snowouts) is still better than an indoor stadium.

The best part of snow in April, especially a week after an 75° day, is when funny people show how little they actually understand about the idea of climate change. On the one hand you've got pretend hippies complaining about an 75° day in March because all they can think about is coal exhaust instead of just enjoying a nice spring day, and on the other hand, you've got people who also can't think for themselves yammering about a little bit of snow in Minnesota in early spring just proves that there hasn't been an increase of greenhouse gases because of humans and their machinery (did I mention that it's Minnesota?). I just shake my head and wonder about these people. Then, I complain about it on my blog.

Regarding the Twins radio home, I love the new Gluek scoreboard, but I hate the horrible reception of the new radio station. Normally, poor reception on 1500 AM is something I'm not to worried about because it just means fewer people can hear the right wing Ahmadinejad wackos (somehow only the third most extreme station in the local market), but now we're stuck with them for Twins games. And without Herb.
