The middle of May is approaching, and the best record in baseball belongs to the Minnesota Twins.
Even better: The team carved out a block of $5 seats for the remainder of its home games this month and sold 20,000 within a day.
Affordability and winning sells. An easy concept.

Comparing, if comparison allowed, 2 "information entities," i.e. my telephone/internet co. & any public/academic library. Library posts staff directory, makes it easy to contact them, have conversation w/ staff. Company buries contacts, makes it v difficult to contact them. Why?

I prefer the breads from Baldinger Bakery in Saint Paul. They distribute to a number of outlets. Breadsmith is also very good. The poorest comes from the Sholom Home and the presentation is awful. Usually presliced into very thin pieces; should be rough cut or pulled apart.

Trump now singing God Bless America, written by Ирвинг Берлин, an immigrant Russian Jew also known as Israel Beilin, and later known as Irving Berlin. He arrived at age 5 with his parents, fleeing the pogroms.
Luckily, border control didn't separate him from his parents.

When did we as a society stop caring about our collars matching our pants? Because on that day, whenever it was, something very important was lost.

That's a wrap on the @GophersWBB season. They lost to #Oregon 101-73. RT to thank this team for a great year! Sorry to see the seniors go, especially @CarlieJoWagner - we appreciate all you've given to the U, and representing the maroon and gold with class.
