I've become that guy who is entertained by sitting on the porch and waving at everyone who comes by. SMH

Told the wife I didn't want to die young. She told me that wouldn't happen if I died now.😂

Landscaping finished on our Sequim house. We wanted a low maintenance hardscape. The water feature is easily my favorite part of the project. It's right in front of our porch and guaranteed to provide much nap assistance. We're thankful and blessed.

He's driven me crazy at times, but I'm going to miss Randy Arozarena in a Matiners jersey.

Go ahead and put a postage stamp on the Mariners jerseys because they've mailed it in. Pathetic.

Saying something is pretty good or pretty bad is like stating you're almost pregnant. You're either pregnant or you're not. Something is either done right or wrong. There is no gray area in my world.

I'm a self confessed morning person. Up by 4 and at the gym before work during my teaching days. I now "sleep in" until 5 in retirement. I find a certain magic in an early workout followed by morning coffee and reading/reflection accompanied by the sound of silence.

What makes this terrible Mariners season even harder to stomach is the real possibility there won't be one in 2027.

I wish they would do away with the onside kick in the NFL given the current rules. Maybe let the offense attempt to convert a 15 or 20-yard attempt to gain possession.

The Mariners culture is rotten. Need a complete change in leadership.

I grew up in a rural, ultra white map dot in East Texas. College was the first time to experience diversity on multiple levels. It's what I'm most appreciative of, and can truthfully say it molded my character for life. My group of friends looked like a daily UN gathering.

Hope I never lose the anticipation, butterflies and loss of sleep before big games that football season provides. My stomach is shaking more than Studio 54 at the peak of disco.

After 67 days in extended stay hotels, we FINALLY get in our new house Wednesday. The tight living quarters have been less than ideal, but thankful we escaped the Texas heat. Still a ton to do on the property, especially landscaping which should get done by the end of the month

Dan Wilson bunting Robles was the dumbest thing he's done since the inning before when he opted to pitch Bazardo. He's clueless.

Nothing makes me look forward to football season more than the catastrophe otherwise known as the Seattle Mariners. They've regressed from bad to embarrassing.

Only Nick Cannon has chased anything more in the history of humanity than Julio Rodriguez does sweepers out of the strike zone.

Dan Wilson manages a bullpen with the same proficiency Nicolas Cage does personal finances

Went for my yearly physical yesterday and it's remarkable how much my numbers have improved since returning to the PNW. Liver enzymes, blood pressure, A1C, WBC counts all in the normal range now. Proof that better mental health is directly proportional to better physical health.

Mind boggling it took Dan this long to get someone warmed up. Coaching malpractice.

Kade even has Randy motivated to play defense

Still can't believe my Mariners good fortune that Kade Anderson fell to 3rd in the draft. Nice things aren't supposed to happen to this franchise.

Brendan Donovan. Professional hitter.

Someone asked me recently if I watch horror films. Told them "yes, almost every night during baseball season." That's life as a Mariners fan.

Would have loved to have had a healthy Brendan Donovan at the top of the lineup all season. On base machine.

Mariners game over before the end of the first inning. Brutal outing by Kirby.

Baseball is a funny game. As Earl Weaver accurately stated many years ago, "momentum is tomorrow's starting pitcher."

Nights like this make me wish I could still consume alcohol. Maybe the worst loss of the season. It's just not meant to be for this team.

Peter Lambert Adam Lambert Miranda Lambert Jack Lambert Not sure it matters who is on the mound as offensively challenged as this team is right now.
