Loved that mid-commercial bumper (that's what it's called, right?) about the show brought to you by sweeping shots of the audience.

Especially the part about the tuna salad sandwich in the glove compartment.

I loved the Undecided 2016 stuff. I want the bumper sticker at the end saying something to the effect of leave me alone, it's only 2015. (It's a short phrase - I should remember it. But I laughed, then totally forgot what it actually said.)

I know, if you quote yourself, you'll go blind... I figured it out. In case anyone is interested, it's Stephen's picture from the cover of Time. It's just such a...different...picture. Yeah, I'm using that excuse for not recognizing it.

Who was the picture in Fallon's locker at the end? (I obviously have a problem recognizing people)

It's Brittany Howard! And Mavis Staples! And Buddy Guy!! And...other people that I feel like I should recognize...

An awkward pause... makes me miss Craig.

Oreos are definitely better than hummus! (And I love hummus...) Totally agree about the band!!

OMG, that's exactly what I've been saying for a week or so about the O's... and the Nats to a point. The things we say to get through the disappointment...

Wow

I can't believe my husband is making me watch tennis... good thing I have a computer to follow this game.

That's one of the, um, benefits (?) of going to many, many stadiums. When I buy tickets, I start getting emails from all the teams, So when the schedules get released, I get emails from...all of them. Good thing I love baseball.

Um, no... but "thanks" for trying :-)

All I can say is... sigh...

Not only is he still working, but he's working on Broadway. Just finished a run in You Can't Take it With You, and will open soon in The Gin Game with Cicely Tyson. I should really go and see that.

All about Dave's beard: http://sports.usatoday.com/2015/09/01/why-david-letterman-grew-that-bushy-white-beard/ And a less beard-related article: http://www.foxsports.com/motor/story/david-letterman-indycar-sonoma-raceway-go-pro-grand-prix-of-sonoma-graham-rahal-090215 Yes, I'm desperate for Dave news...

I wish the O's could bank some of these runs tonight. They've certainly been in short supply lately... Oh, btw, if anyone wants to go to the O's game on the 12th (scarf giveaway!), I have an extra ticket (can't hurt to try...:-) )

Two lovely stadiums in the great Spring Training circuit. Both did great remodeling jobs. Really love the Port St Lucie complex!

RIP Dean Jones http://www.playbill.com/news/article/dean-jones-original-bobby-in-company-dead-at-84-watch-his-unforgettable-being-alive-360803 I just love Company

Seconding what Rick said. I don't comment a lot, but I read everything you post and appreciate that you're taking the time. Thanks.

Even though it wasn't free, I did bring home a lovely beer can. And when I bought it, it was filled with lovely beer!

That game was brutal. Pregame was lovely. Mid 5th inning was lovely. The rest can go into the trash can right now. I was thinking of you, King of Birds, while watching the scoreboard. If I have to choose, I always choose the Yankees to lose. But now, we're so close to last place... it's a puzzlement... :-)

Alas, no giveaway at all tonight. It's like they're trying to keep it low-key for some odd reason. I had the game on tape too...as a matter of fact, it may still be in the tape cabinet. Perhaps someday I'll look... xaxat. we were at the last game of his streak. The next day, we started the drive to Kansas City and St Louis. I think we were somewhere in West Virginia when we heard Ryan Minor was playing.

Tonight, the O's are commemorating the 20th anniversary of Cal Ripken's 2131st consecutive game. We have almost the same seats we had way back then. 20 years goes by soooooo fast.

I'd checked the Billboard list before and my song is Teddy Bear by Elvis. So I was confused when this one came up with Tammy by Debbie Reynolds. Wiki says Tammy was #1 on Cashbox, Teddy Bear on Billboard. So I'm a bit less confused now. But that won't last...
