Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I'm so sorry, Amy. Much peace and strength to you and your family.

'suela, that's just FUBAR. I have a hard time believing that real, theoretically-rational human beings can act even worse than one-dimensional caricatures. If she was a fictional character, we'd be decrying her utter lack of believability.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

In other news, there are street musicians in front of the building next door playing Led Zeppelin covers. Loudly.

I didn't expect to regret gving up my childhood hobby of rock collecting.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I definitely need to try making peach cobbler ice cream. Now that I've tried out my ice cream maker and realized how easy it is, I want to make all sorts of ice cream.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dear Giants fans:

Notice my restraint.

Yeah. You know all season it's felt like we were getting by on smoke and mirrors and it's finally too much to juggle. No Posey. Huff has been crap. They trade the farm for Beltran and he gets hurt. The bullpen and starters and Panda have been good all season, but they need more offense than they're getting.

We got necessary breaks last year and now regression to the mean is having its way.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Ben and Jerry's Peach Cobbler ice cream

I need this now. How did I not know this existed?

Pretty much, yeah. I told my boss I felt like I was trapped in an episode of Mad Men.

I haven't seen it in a long time. That stuff is awesome. Just look for Willie on the label.

Because books.

We don't usually buy Ben and Jerry's because it's expensive, and if the kids find it in the freezer, it disappears. But S. had a coupon, and he knows how I feel about peaches and cobbler.

New York Superfudge Chunk also really seriously does not suck, if you need a hit of chocolate.
