Hey, it's really Thursday today!  Not one of those Mondays that's 48 hours away from a holiday, but a real brand spanking shiny new Thursday!  If you're at the office, hopefully your next two days will go by fast.  If you're at home, get outside, wait for the Ice Cream Man, buy a Bomb Pop and run your ass through the sprinkler.

We should all be eating Bomb Pops and running through the sprinkler.

Since we're all "fans" of the NL Central, here's a link to Pittsburgh Pirates: The Movie.  Sloth Fratelli plays Tom Gorzelanny, so naturally, I approve. [Mondesi's House]
