The Last-Ever (Regular-Season) Twins Game in the Dome

Why, yes ...


... that is an authentic All-Star American League Justin Morneau jersey, a replica of the one he wore when he won the 2008 Home Run Derby -- thanks for asking! :)

Frankie, Bundled

It got chilly here (the high today is 50 degrees -- ugh), but Frankie's ready!

Frankly, all the reviews are right: it's amazing. The sound is unbelievably crisp, the song choice is great, and the animation is more like a feature film than a video game. You know what this means: Bundy Kid Thanksgiving is gonna be OFF THE HOOK THIS YEAR (can I get a "what?what?" up in here??).

The neighbors came over last Sunday night to help us break in the new peripherals, including Beatles-themed drums, mike with mike stand, and a supersweet Hofner viola-style bass controller.


Franklin likes the drums, too, but not as much as ...

... the box they came in. It was a great opportunity to I talked to him about how awesome it is to build forts.

Band Silliness at 331

Great time with the Band last night: cocktails at the Peacock Lounge, dinner at Erte, a fantastic Zenon dance show (music by Handel, Joy Division, Lyle Lovett, Chopin and Jelly Roll Morton) at the Ritz Theater, then a bit of the Twin Cities Ukelele Orchestra (their cover of "Hey Ya!" was really fun) at the 331 Club.


After the photo below, ETC asked, "I tried to look really angry. Did I look angry?"
