Like high inflation, everyone’s proclivity toward debt, and the Iraq War, StoreyTelling being inundated with a deluge of spam comments is looking like part of the reality I’m just going to have to adjust to.<\/p>\n
The one spam comment per minute rate looks pretty consistent, so I think that’s what it’s going to be.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the general barometer of how things stand based on the people on the streets of the Tenderloin says outlook not good<\/i>. The theory about the end of the month causing the trouble seemed to be dented yesterday. But who knows at this point.<\/p>\n
And if the Mariners lose one more exciting one-run game, I think they’re going to set some kind of record for fan frustration. They’re 1-8 in one-run games. 1-8! And they’re 12-8 (.600) in the rest of the games. .600 happens to be the winning percentage of the top two teams in the AL. The only good thing about this is that they can’t possibly keep up that kind of record in one-runners, so as that progresses to .500, the M’s will go on a tear. Right?<\/p>\n

Work’s been better; everything else has been crazier. The rate of change is looking pretty spiky as we settle into May. I’ve surrounded myself with distraction bolsters: the APDA Forum game, playing baseball on Sunday, and so on. But the world is there whether one’s distracted or not. Does anyone really think Bush is going to take record disapproval lying down?<\/p>\n
