COVID-19, Vaccine, Masks, Church, Baseball and School -- October 30, 2023

My wife and I have been beset by bad coughs, so we have not yet gotten our new COVID-19 boosters. We hope to get our flu shots at the same time.

The Giants signed Bob Melvin as their new manager. I remember when he played for the Giants. He was very good when he managed the Athletics. Working for a team that pays people in money rather than hot dogs should be even better. 

Bruce Bochy's Texas Rangers beat Dusty Baker's Houston Astros in the ALCS. Dusty Baker announced his retirement. Texas and Arizona played in the World Series. 

We went without a Speaker of the House for most of the month. The guy they chose voted against certifying the election and is a Trump cultist. 

We have been able to use the computer lab at Good Shepherd and it is working well. 

There are reports that Russian troops in Ukraine are performing acts of insubordination..

Thank You, Boch -- September 29, 2019

Today Bruce Bochy managed his last game for the Giants.  The Dodgers won, but there were wonderful tributes to Bochy at the ballpark and on video.

Bruce Bochy 2000 -- September 18, 2019

Congratulations to Giants manager Bruce Bochy, who won his 2000th game as a manager when the Giants beat the Red Sox at Fenway Park 11-3.

Before the game, Carl Yastrzemski threw out the first pitch to his grandson, Mike, who is making a good impression with the Giants.
