Slouching towards Fremont
Last night I was taken to task for not blogging in God knows how long. Rumor has it that I’m a good writer, though you’d never actually know it from my output, or lack thereof. Luckily, 3+ months off may (should?) lead to a queue of interesting things to write about.
As usual, the baseball playoffs took over my life for an unwelcome amount of time in early October. The A’s showed signs of going deep, but lucky for my free time — and for my wallet, since I was sitting on very expensive tickets for the World Series — they reverted to their usual playoff-choking form in the ALCS. With the team all but moved to distant Fremont by 2010, it was time to start disengaging anyway. I’ve got three more years to find a way to remain a fan before the A’s move a full hour’s drive from my San Francisco abode.
In the meantime, I have these guys to help Bring The Dissent:
