  1. The #Tigers gift-wrapped this game and handed it to the #Yankees, who said "No thank you" and gave it right back. #UnbelievablyLame
  2. Tomorrow I try new Kappa Pisco from Chile and write it up. Looking forward to figuring out what makes it different from Peruvian pisco.
  3. And that's not to belittle Rohan's writing. But he has a way to go to reach Kepner's level. With time, hopefully he'll get there.
  4. Comparing the @nytimes stories about Johan's no-hitter by @TylerKepner & intern Tim Rohan is fascinating. Great how-to lesson in journalism.
  5. @ballark News Hour is the only national TV news worth watching. Hysteria-free.
  6. @ballark unbelievable, right? That really pissed me off too.
  7. I hope @NYCBaby creates a Johan Santana cocktail so New Orleans can celebrate with her! #AmazinMets #AmazinBartender
  8. @NYCBaby Big shout-out to my wonderful #Mets-loving friend in absentia! (From NYC, not from loving the Mets.) Congratulations!
  9. HOT DAMN! #Mets #JohanSantana
  10. My mom was in labor with me when Tom Seaver threw the most famous no-no near-miss in #Mets history, 7/9/69. Just thought I'd mention that.
  11. Thinking about @bambamhaupt and @AmyMJ2 right now.... #Mets
  12. I can't remember the last time I turned off a #Yankees game to watch a #Mets game. Possibly never. #GoJohan
  13. This #Yankees game is annoying me greatly.
  14. Checking out the new Lillet Rosé. It's like summertime in a glass. If only I had a grapefruit slice for garnish....
  15. @anguswinchester Duly noted. And thank you for the warning. Gin isn't on the agenda tonight at any rate - working on a bourbon article.
  16. Bourbon, rye & gin from @fewspirits arrived in the mail, which makes this a damn fine day. Looking forward to cocktail hour!
  17. High school reunion tonight, commemorating a very large number of years since we graduated. Do I want to go? And how drunk should I be?
  18. When I was a kid I thought Evelyn "Champagne" King must be a huge star to have a nickname like that. But she only had one hit, didn't she.
  19. Nam Wah Tea Parlor. Dim sum. Old friends. Of such things are memorable evenings made.
  20. Not ready to say I like the new Beach Boys album, but the last few tracks really pack an emotional wallop. Gotta listen a few more times.
