The rescheduled game will be played this evening at 8:00 and, according to the weather dweebs at The Weather Channel, tonights weather in Philadelphia is predicted to be:
I don't know how many innings I will see but I can assure you that I will watch at least one.
Yesterday's Halloween festivities went well and we had around 20-30 costumed children, three non-costumed teenagers and one dog.
The kids were all excited, the teenagers were polite and the dog was happy to get a biscuit to munch on.
Yes, I gave the dog a Halloween treat.
Personally, I think all dogs should be allowed to trick-or-treat.
And since we purchased our candy from Costco, I can assure you that we still have lot of it left. That is fine with me because, well, I like candy.
It might be time to buy a Powerball ticket...
If you decide to take the annuity, you will get $40,000,000 each year for 30 years. That would net you around $26,000,000 every year after taxes.
If you take the lump sum, that's $596,000,000. That would net you around $387,000,000 after taxes. If you invest that into a low-risk 2% investment, you will earn roughly $7,500,000 every year. If you don't spend all $7,500,000 at the end of the year, you put it back in to the investment fund, effectively increasing your annual return.
No matter how you decide to do it, that's a shitload of money. I'm willing to spend $2.00 on that chance.
And for the record, I'll be taking the lump sum and putting it into a low-risk investment. I'm pretty sure I can live quite nicely on $20,000 per day.
Another addition to the list of, "I get the best spam"...
While I sit around watching baseball, you can visit these links:
- Man, they got world records for everything.
- It must have been a slow news day in Maine.
- He just wanted to go for a slither.
- Key load of crap in this story: "Henry replaced Dombrowski with Chaim Bloom largely because he wanted to build a more sustainable pipeline." Henry fired Dombrowski because he wanted to hire Bloom. He liked Blooms ability to staff a team while spending very little of Henry's money.
- Remember when they used to emphasize "good sportsmanship" in college sports?
- I saw this kid play in Worcester. If they don't add him to the roster, they're crazy. He's very good.
