bktheirregularRaining all day. Plans for a family barbecue got squashed by the drip, drip, drip from the heavens, so it's time to improvise.

I was watching the Yankees since the 1980's, which was a bad time for the Bronx Bombers. Basically, back then, they were has-been's, with a rich history but nothing on the field.
