The All-Star game last night

The All-Star game last night was completely…underwhelming. I couldn’t even really keep myself in front of the TV for much of the game. I did watch when Smoltz, Oswalt, Clemens and Lidge pitched, and watched one of Ensberg’s at-bats, and saw Andruw’s homer. But the NL got whipped. And the rest of the game was rather…boring. Could it be that I prefer to watch games that mean something, and where the players aren’t being swapped around every inning? I suppose so. I don’t say that sarcastically at all — the All-Star game is cool enough. It’s just more fun to watch actual games.
So. Not much to say today. Oh yeah, except one tiny little thing that will hopefully launch at 2:51 CDT this afternoon:

Mom has her shuttle flag flying outside our house, I know. GO DISCOVERY!
