Re: Breaking Bad
Another thing to keep in mind (don't know if it was posted in that article) is that this has all taken place over a very short period of time. So while we remember the poisoning two seasons ago it wasn't all that long ago to the characters, so everything is a lot more fresh in his mind.

They just opened an Aldi's in our area and I've started going there to get eggs, milk and paper towels/plates/napkins. I can get a gallon of milk and a dozen eggs for a dollar less than a gallon of milk at Kroger.

Trouble with the Astros is they've stripped their farm system of the better players and what's left ain't much. The Phillies have a shot of .500 by the end of the season. Astros, maybe by 2018. You obviously haven't been following the Astros farm system the last couple years. They have already made...

May be a good brawl in the Braves/Nats game tonight. Bryce Harper showboated a bit after a homer last weekend in Washington, and was subsequently plunked. Dugouts emptied, but no real fireworks.
