Titanic? - bingo!
In scar face they show that old gangster movie I think and as the guy is getting shot by the oil tanks(?) I thought there was a king of the world reference.
 
Ottumwa scores 16 on 7 hits and 11 walks in the first inning in baseball vs DSM Hoover. End up winning 17-2 in 4.
Oof. State championship game? Was watching state baseball championships today. All close games, one went 11 innings. Brewers manager's son played in the D1 championship and won.

Iowa doesn't start BB until May. So just a regular season game. Son's team has 5 games in 5 nights next week. We basically have 5 pitchers (and that is stretching it) who are deemed Varsity pitchers. A couple JV ones and two seniors have thrown an inning of JV to see if they could at least close out a game if needed to. They have a game tomorrow night also. Their top pitcher is going to throw for that one since it's the rival. He can throw 65 pitches and still be available on Monday when this crapshow starts. I hope the coaches watch the pitch count and pull him at 65 if the game is out of hand. They had to sit one pitcher last night because he pitched 41 pitches on Monday. 25 and less is no days rest, 26-40 is 1 day of rest and 41-65 is 2 days rest.
 
Guess I'm heading out by Holland Michigan this weekend. Will be coming back late Sunday night. Any suggestions on where the west side of Chicago on 80 gets okay to stay at. I know Joliet seems to be a craphole, but is Morris or someplace okay to crash at a hotel?
 
If you forget to start recording your ride on Strava did you actually ride?

There was a good thread on Gary a while back.

I think it wasnt sounding the positives, IIRC and we probably want to be on the other side of Chicago to not have to deal with it first thing in the morning.
 
They must have made an update to the web page. It keeps saying I need to log in but then tells me I am already logged in

Joliet's not that bad.
