Love notes from the edge (Tues/Weds open thread)
Inspired by some of the more rabid attempted comments to my post on disgraced Senator David Vitter, I decided to add a new link to the permanent menu of links you on the top right of the page. It’s called “Love Notes From The Edge” and it contains ‘fan mail’ (heh) from people who clearly love yours truly 
You can check it out here, but I’ll warn you – none of it is kid-safe to read.
I’m still sifting through some past attempted comments and emails, so I’ll be adding more and updating that page semi-frequently.
——
—- So much for wanting to be ‘one’ with nature, eh? This is for the true I’net/email addict: More campgrounds going Wi-Fi.
—- ST reader Ryan is liveblogging the Major League Baseball All-Star game. Boring night, Ryan?
Ok, I concede that not everyone finds All-Star games boring …
—- Hey, did you know that women are attracted to men with more muscles? Who’da thought?? (Hat tip: Tom Maguire)

I’m not that bored. I like baseball
I knew there was a reason so many women were hitting on me!
Don’t people go camping to get away from civilization?
Ahhh, baseball. The only sport where you can pack 15 minutes of action into 3 hours of play.
That’s pretty much how I feel about baseball, Sev
I generally only get into it until September when the race to the World Series really gets going.
For sheer boredom, only soccer and golf top baseball.
Of course, if you’re a Cub fan, there hasn’t been much excitement for the past 100 years or so. Yankee fans might have a different view.
Hey; baseball’s the perfect spectator sport, especially live. Where else can you get away with ogling fine specimens of the opposite sex for 2:45 of the average 3-hour game while sobering up from the pre-game tailgate
(in years past, I would’ve said “while getting drunk”, but with $6 beers, that’s not doable).
Related to going Wi-Fi, my canoe outfitter has a post on how cell phones are starting to make their way into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Gillis Lake is about 5 1/2 miles into the wilderness from the Gunflint Trail (the road into the BWCAW from Grand Marais) as the cell signals fly, I suspect that the relative lack of trees (due to fires in the area both last year and this year) help the reception, and as best as I can determine, only Verizon offers service anywhere in the region, but it still is disconcerting.
What’s disconcerting steveegg, the lack of trees or Verizon’s invasion?
The latter. I go up there to get away from all technology more advanced than flashlights and Coleman stoves.
This is priceless: guess what grades the Goracle got in Natural Science courses in college?
Which explains why he’s never willing to debate anyone on the issue. Real scientists who actually know the subject would make him look even more foolish than he already does.
Of course, that won’t have any effect on the adherents of the First Church of Global Warming and Discount Carbon Credits Outlet. Usually, it takes careful therapy and reprogramming to break someone away from a cult.

Thanks for the laughs GWR – and on that note, isn’t it always funny when alarmists immediately attack the credibility of skeptics by saying “so and so isn’t a scientist, climatologist, meteorologist” etc etc but ignore the fact that, well, Al Gore isn’t either?
GWR asserts:
Oh, I dunno about soccer–it can get interesting when Brandi Chastain is playing.
But to get semi-serious for a moment: the way to watch soccer is with the sound off and with your CD player on, with headphones clamped on. Recommended soundtracks: Diana Kraal, Heather Nova, KT Tunstall.
Well, I would love to see a series between the Cubs and the Yankees. I think the last time that happened was back when Babe Ruth was playing, and Ruth pointed to the stands where he was going to hit a home run, and then hit one right to where he’d pointed.
You anti-baseball folks can all just take a big bite.. nevermind
I enjoyed playing baseball and enjoy watching it. I only wish beer wouldn’t cost $10.
NC: Better give Ryan a call.
I suspect that like the typical sports depicted as non-contagiens for addictive viewing, (table tennis comes to mind) unless ones involvement in it were to have preceded it’s watching of it, the *Slow Sports* like curling, yacht racing and golf shall always have a cross to bear.
LOL!!!!! Give me a call Ryan, we’ll go to a game!!!!
I love baseball!!
I’ll drive!
Good deal with the Senate blocking a bad bill.
