Briefly. (very)
Today is a good day to have a great day. For starters, I set another personal record today – consecutive days alive!
Trivia #1: For you “dart heads” – What is the highest possible score in darts using 3 darts?

Going to McDonald’s for a salad is like going to a hooker for a hug.
Yes, it’s early (roughly 25% into the season) but our Red Sox are still in first place.
The NHL playoffs begin tomorrow. Go B’s. Is it Tuukka time?? Not felling it but I hope so. Sway… man!
Useless information supposed to fire my imagination: The Colorado Avalanche have been awarded the Presidents’ Cup as the top seed in the NHL playoffs. – There’s really an award for that??? Who’s resume does that go on?
I do feel bad for Jaylen Brown. I like the guy. However, the Celtics were going nowhere with hm and are certainly going nowhere without him. Is it time for Stevens (and Ainge) to step down or do they get another chance? I say one more year.
Quote for the week: “First of all, it was hotter than hell out there, like a whore in church.” – New York Jets draft pick Zach Wilson’s mother.
Drunks run stop signs. Potheads wait for them to turn green.
This week’s sign of the apocalypse: Roughly 45 days ago, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky spoke of “impending doom” regarding the state of Covid-19. Yesterday, the CDC announced it has revised its mask guidance again, now enabling those who are fully vaccinated to forgo wearing masks both indoors and outdoors.

Where’s the “D!?” The Portland Trailblazers scored a franchise record 50 points in the first quarter the other night against the Houston Rockets while tying an NBA record for three pointers in a quarter (12). The Celtics played their first game ever where both teams had 70+ points at the half. Since the new Boston Garden opened in 1995, the Celtics have allowed >-70 points in the first half 4 times in the last 19 games. In the previous 1,007 games they also did that 4 times.
A California woman purchased a $26 million winning lottery ticket in November, but accidently put the ticket in the pocket of her pants that went through the laundry. California lottery officials would neither confirm or deny the existence of surveillance video confirming evidence of the purchase. DYK: If the prize goes unclaimed the one-time payout of $19.7 million goes to California’s public schools.
And I ain’t got no worries because I ain’t in no hurry, at all.

The sun is out, I want some
It’s not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach”
