Okay, I'm gonna do my best to not wax poetic about last night's WBC final and the top of the 9th. But even though you can't predict baseball, Suzyn, sometimes, you can predict baseball, Suzyn. Because we all wanted to see it, and we all could predict it. That, Jeter's

No fun facts about music and stuff this week. The big thing at Apartment Weaselo is that Senorita Weaselo's staying the next few days, for the most part. Her family's getting hit with covid. She's fine because she's in the basement, but it means she can't come up for food.
