I looked at those two flamingos – and all the empty space around them.

two for the price of one
so there are now four birds (these two also have solar cells attached).
I am taking my entertainment where I can find it – and it normally is in small and quiet moments. These make me smile.
(As did the As game – it was a 13:2 rout. Then there was the issue of the White Sox’s right fielder. Jon Jay. Apparently he couldn’t understand the post run cheer – “we love you Oakland, we do (x3), not you [right fielder’s name]” and filled in something else in his head. Complained. Security came to talk to us. We looked at them like they were insane. Said they should talk to any of the security who had been working the park for more than a day.

Didn’t change the cheer – nor several repeats of “we want Jay….
I don’t think the White Sox have been in Oakland for a few years. Certainly this particular right fielder seems to have played for enough different teams over the years that he should have know about RF149. My prediction is that he will be in left field tomorrow. Since the left field bleachers had been know for flags, chants, and noise makers, I don’t think that will be any more peaceful….
