Today's Notes 4/8/21

 Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream of ESPN Major League Baseball was pretty solid as we played 5 games, lost one of them while simulating three games. One of those games played was the 2004 All-Star Game and needless to say, my in-game version of Phillies was well represented, with Jim Thome, Jimmy Rollins, Mike Liberthal, David Bell, Bobby Abreu all in the starting line-up, with Pat Burrell and Randy Wolf among the reserves. At this point with 87 games into the season, there are 75 games left to get through, so we've got a whole lot more baseball left to play.

I do have a major headache as I have to move some furniture because my local power utility needs to do a little work inside my office space on Saturday morning because they have to do things involving moving the gas meter... which means Friday night's stream is gonna be kind of short. The problem is I got to move a dresser but I'm not sure where exactly I can put it temporarily.

Yesterday, The Extreme Ghostbusters episode Deadliners premiered over on YouTube, and if you hate clowns that episode isn't for you. There is a bit of oddness as to why Eduardo kept his proton pack when being dropped off at his home early in the episode, which is just weird... granted it worked for the episode's ending where he remembers the team was facing demonic clowns and wanted to show up Garrett, but it was still weird.

Got the Life Is Strange comic box-set yesterday, and as I was flipping through them I saw the series continued beyond that, so I pre-ordered volume 4 of the series, Partners in Time, which comes out next week.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 session was a solid 35 minute workout from start to finish, did not include any stretching, so it was straight get up and go. We did unlock the Sophie's Trainee achievement which is to perform 10 Daily Workouts using her as the trainer, which leaves the Free Training and Best Buddy achievements associated with her to work on. Obvious the Free Training one will be the easier one to deal with because as we discovered with Hiro the Best Buddy one doesn't have an obvious scoring system associated with it.

Tonight' stream will be focused on Star Trek Online, so probably a mission and a few Task Force Ops will be our focus for tonight. Nothing to complex. I did see they are rolling out the Delta Recruit gimmick as yet another way to inflate numbers by saying 'look at how many people are playing now' because lets face it, all the developers at Cryptic want is to show Perfect World (the publisher) they have a strong enough audience to prevent them pulling the plug on the game.

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
