Rational Conservatism from the Rocky Mountains
Yeah, family reunions are the thing this weekend. So we did ours today. Hope you are all enjoying the long weekend.
So… I haven’t been able to watch or listen to the Rockies much lately. You can tell because they had a five game winning streak. That’s all over now because our rental car has the misfortune of having XM satellite radio, and I managed to find the Rockies game on the dial. Score was 4-1 [...]
