I’m not much of a baseball fan, but congratulations to the Boston Red Sox for completing yet another epic choke and missing the MLB playoffs. Coupled with the Patriots losing to Buffalo (Buffalo. Hah!) last week, my hope is that this is particularly devastating to my friends to the east of Lake Champlain. Keep electing the likes of Scott Brown, and this is the miserable existence you can expect. If you want to save yourselves, vote for Elizabeth Warren, or not only will you never win another championship, but the Yankees will win every World Series forever. And nobody wants that.

Today is National Coffee Day, so I’m going to do something a little different this morning. I’m gonna hang out, surf the Internet with one eye and watch the lo-cal news with the other eye, all while drinking as much coffee as I can manage before I have to go to work.

Oh, and I’ll bring a cup with me, too.

Apparently you can get lots of deals out there, so check your favorite coffee joint. Even Starbucks has something going on, though I’m not sure you can call that shit they sell coffee. As for me, I’ll stick to the home brew.

In fact, I think I’ll have another one right now.

Happy Birthday, Pugsley!
