"Cavemen!" I shouted on my way out the door last night, knowing I had episode #6 "Rock Vote" saved for Wednesday morning viewing. Can I call this the best show nobody’s watching yet? It is.
Honestly, I was worried through the first three segments. But the fourth was as solid a piece of writing this show has yet seen this season. This is not Aliens in America nor do I expect it to be. But it is funny. There’s not a lot of shows that can legitimately claim more than general amusement. Rebel without a Cause! And Spoon?! Really, not bad at all.
Tom Scharpling’s blogging again. So, the writer’s strike brought something good.

And Beware of the Blog reminded us that Captain’s Crate is back on a regular basis – which is a true joy for the vinyl junkie in all of us.

Mets dodged a bullet with Posada, but appear ready to take one with Torrealba. It’s hard to doubt Omar, but I still do everytime. Castillo to go with Alou would help I think, so would Mark Lorretta. How he nevers get paid to the level of his production is a constant source of amazement.
Craig Monroe to the Twins. Most Likely to Succeed wasn’t that long ago was it?
Still waiting on that A-Rod Market.
Danny’s talking about bullets, not basehits. Something’s wrong.
