Re: Is anyone watching MLB playoffs?
I have to say the Phils-Mets battle is some really exciting/nail-biting baseball. Agreed. In game 1, the Phillies manager over-managed his pitchers and lost the game. Wheeler, one of the best pitchers in MLB, had his best stuff and was throwing a playoff classic in a tight 1-0 game through the 7th....

Baryshnikov of the tennis court
Federer: Twelve Final Days is one of the best things going on Prime. You can easily mis-spend an hour and half on something less worthy. It is not about how the ball bounces.

Re: Why Taking the Train is Better than Flying
The photo is, of course, not of the Seattle-to-Portland run. Looks more like central California coast. How hard is it to get a relevant picture?

Re: What Kind of Fuel Am I?
I wondered about the additives and such, but the issue is probably moot since the tribe likely cannot get anything but fuel sold throughout the state. I agree that they do not need to impose California state and local taxes and fees. It is also not clear whether they are passing all of the savings o...

Re: What Kind of Fuel Am I?
Last week at the local Shell gas station regular was $6.29/gal and today it's $5.79. Recent road trip, and I-5 and 50 were pretty standard at around $6, but drove past a tribal casino complex that had their own station and they were $4.59. Presumably, they are selling the same gas as everyone else,...

Re: Elvis!
One of the "treasures" in the family attic were a collection of Elvis plates. A lot of classic vinyl albums and some boxes full of photos made it worthwhile to wade through the dust and cobwebs.
