Iām fighting a losing battle with jet lag. When I was younger it never bothered me but now, Iām a zombie for days. I played tennis yesterday afternoon, badly, in a fog. I donāt get jet lag going to places (or at least not near as bad), I think the fun of being somewhere new gets me through, but coming homeā¦.
So instead of trying to come up with a post about the Jays, Iām going to put up this OpenThread and likely go back to bed.
But then, after a little sleep, Iām going to the Calgary Comic Expo. I used to be a big comic book fan, Iād buy comic weekly, but the prices were going up and the nearest comic book store moved much further away and I decided that was a message that I should stop. The last several years Iāve gone to the Expo though and it has been enough to scratch that particular itch.
Anyway, use the thread to talk about anything you would like. Comics if you would like. Or anything else. Seen a good movie lately? Have some thoughts about sumo wrestlers and how they should wear move clothing.
Or maybe you want to talk about Bill Singerās birthday. Singer started the first Blue Jays game, in the cold, and made 11 other starts (and one relief appearance) that year, his last in the majors. Singer is 82 today. He was 32 when he made that start on opening day. He had a good career, winning 20 games twice, making two all-star teams, and picking up 118 wins in total (127 losses), with a 3.39 ERA.
