MORE IMPORTANTLY - The Milwaukee Yelich's are off to a hot start and travel to Cincinnati where the game will be played in 47 degree weather in their little tiny park.
Looking at the PECOTA Standings the one Philadelphia fan will be happy to see the Phillies are projected to win 87.3 games and are now 2 games better then Washington.
The Brewers 84.9 games 2 games over the Cards and the Cubs continue to be in last place with 78 wins.
In a simulation MLB The Show has the Brewers winning 67 games this year.

We finished Season 3 of Victoria and I had to look up The Crystal Palace. I am amazed anything got built in those days much less structures like this in 1856
Sheet glass windows had been invented 20 years earlier and were used in what is called the greatest building of all time. This was the very first Worlds Fair and came during Queen Victories reign.
Sadly in 1936 a small fire in a woman's cloak room soon became a raging inferno and 3 hours later the entire building was consumed.

Lots of stuff happening in Columbus. The big news is Sharrows Downtown is NOT closing, just augmenting. With the closing of ShopKo a non-competitive agreement is no longer valid and a pharmacy will move back into the store. Relatives of the Sharrows will take over and we will be safe to move our prescriptions to the new place at some point.
GLADLY - I still have issues with Walgreens throwing out my postcards AND my postcard stand (they are not cheap). I was told to contact "corporate" who did absolutely nothing.
The Columbus Hospital is planing another 15 million dollar expansion which is always good news.
The Old Rock has a new cook. It's all I'm going to comment on.
VOTE TOMORROW

Looking for something new to make for supper or a side dish? I made Dragon Noodles last night.
A sweet, tangy spicy noodle dish that takes only a few minutes.
4oz of lo mein noodles or rice doodles or ramin noodles - you get the idea
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
1 (or 2 ) large eggs (I'll try 3 next time)
1 Tbsp brown sugar**
1 Tbsp soy sauce**
1 Tbsp Sriracha sauce**
also (I have never added these)
1 handful of fresh cilantro
1 sliced green onion
boil noodles
mix all ** ingredients in a bowl
put butter and red pepper in a large pan and then add scrambled eggs
When noodles are done add to pan and add the ** mixture and mix
BAM done.

Here is an oddity - Every time Republicans decide to get rid of health care for Americans health care becomes more popular. Old white people (typically Republicans) could care less about health care, but if you make less then $40K a year it's pretty darn important. If you are between 18-49 it's pretty important, if you are a woman it's pretty important and if you are anything but white - REAL important.
Yet the Republican party disagrees. Health care - not unlike education is not THAT important.
Obamacare before Trump had a -4% Favorability rating, since Trump and the GOP took over +12%, Yet the GOP is hell bent on taking health care away.
In other polls 47% of registered voters STILL believe Trump impeded AND obstructed the Mueller investigation.
74% of registered voters including 56% of Registered Republican voters want the entire report made public.
Pete Buttigieg has gotten a big bump in polls lately.
50% of Americans believe the President should be elected by a popular vote while 35% say the Electoral Collage is fine. Pretty much along Party lines (since the Electoral Collage is basically gerrymandering).
NASA and the Euro Space Agency are looking for a woman to stay in bed for 60 days for $19,000. There is a joke in there but if I run for President it will come back to haunt me on Fox News.
Trumps nominee for Federal Reserve Board owes the IRS $75,000 in back taxes from 2014. In 2012 he was held for contempt of court for not paying $300,000 in child support. Seemes like a fine man.
Anybody that ever does not pay child support is pure scum in my book.
The Conman in the White House loves having other conmen around him and the Trump lovers have no problems with corruption, cheaters and gropers running the country.

Weather - lots for rain showers this week the the weekend is looking FANTASTIC.
