I taped the funeral to watch later. I chose EWTN cause I figured they would blad needlesly the least, plus be the most accurate when they did talk.

Did you see this week's South Park?

"MSM" came into common use around the time of Dan Rather and the phony memo/blogging story. One day you never saw it, the next day it was everywhere.

Do you happen to get William Safire's Language column in the Sunday paper? He had an interesting one last week about how and why the French mispronounce Vladimir Putin's name. (I mean more so than we mispronounce it.)

Saw the description, but didn't see the show. I might catch the rerun on Sunday.

It was actually fairly lame, really just an extended joke on the theme that baseball is just way too boring.

But, here we are in April and the Buccos are only three games out of first. After three games.

The French spell "Putin" "Poutine" and pronounce it like "routine." They say there is no equivalent sound ,so they have to Frenchify it in that way.

But Bill tells us that actually if "Putin" is pronounced the proper way it is virtually identical to a slang word for prostitute. Pronounce "Putin" with that nasal "ahn" sound that French people make.

He also noted that this prostitute word is the likely source for the American slang that also has the same "poo" and "tang" sounds.

The things you learn in the Sunday paper.

Kinda surprising that the Brewers swept them. Since the GAB opened, the Brewers have been dreadful there.

The games were at PNC Park. 9-2 and 10-2. You could say our offense and defense both played consistently.

Last night they lost 1-0 to the Padres.

One is the best place in the league to watch baseball and the worst baseball in the league to watch.

Sausages race at GAB
Pierogies chase at PNC
