Sigh. The Weekly Reader provided me with lots of cheap books as a kid. And posters!

I noticed that the Twinscards site has books and magazines posted as well. Without the extensive reviews and comments found here at WGOM, it's only a shell of what it could have been.

32 pages? That's pretty short even for a children's book.

Rhubarb_Runner replied on January 17th, 2008 at 12:19 pm

Well, the next two books in the queue are also 32 pages. Publishing/shipping prices must jump at 33 pages.

eight sheets of paper plus one cover. Right?

Rhubarb_Runner replied on January 17th, 2008 at 1:25 pm

Plus a little glue and some ink, and you've got yourself a spot in the SBG Library.

I swear to God, the Twins are going to kick away a great opportunity by losing to the A's and M's.

What do you think of Billy Smith these days?

• Has done pretty darned good job as first year general manager.
• Has done okay -- some obvious mistakes, but I think he's going to be fine.
• Not very encouraging. Pretty much every move he's made in the offseason was a bust and his handling of the trading deadline and after has been disappointing.
• Jeebus. He's making McHale look good.
