Roger Clemens @ MindSay

Sometimes I feel bad about not being able to get Jayme something really nice for Valentine's Day. I just go with the card and candy routine. I'm poor you know.
But it could be worse. I could be like Roger Clemens and throw my wife under the bus for Valentine's Day. Roger Clemens is a scumbag.
? Too Much Walrus ?
I am wondering about some things. Many things. But for now I will just address one thing. I am wondering if I have too many presences on the web? The following is a short list of my links:
I have left out several abandoned blogs and test sites. My typical MO is to learn a new site and software and then move on. I like to experiment with varieties of presentation and media. So much for focus and being a Gemini.
Next up: The meaning of "Well-adjusted"

Koby Clemens will be playing with his famous father on Tuesday night. But he won't be behind the plate.
Contrary to earlier published reports, Koby Clemens said, he'll be playing third when his dad, Roger Clemens, takes the mound for the Class A Lexington Legends, the Houston Chronicle reported.
Roger Clemens' start on Tuesday is his first rehab assignment to prepare him for a return to the Houston Astros later this month. Clemens signed a one-year, $22 million contract with the Astros on June 1.
"To get everybody right, I'm not catching him," the younger Clemens, who was drafted by the Astros last year, told the Chronicle. "I'll be playing third base. Everybody's been calling my phone saying 'You're catching now?' I say 'I have no idea what you're talking about.'"
The confusion may have started when the younger Clemens caught his father's bullpen session on Thursday, which he has done before.
"He only does that because I asked him to get back there [Thursday], and he did a few times at home to get me loose," Roger Clemens said. "He likes third base and he likes hitting. I think he likes the outfield, too, but that remains to be seen."
Clemens is essentially reserving the right to return to the game this summer.
"Right now, I don't see myself playing," Clemens told USA Today on Monday. "I'm not going to start the season with anyone. I made my mind up. And when I do shut it down, I'll be walking away with a smile on my face. There will be no regrets, because I feel like I've done it the right way."
Clemens will start for Team USA against South Africa on Friday. And he might get another start in the tournament.
After that, Clemens has indicated that his focus will shift more towards his sons' playing careers.
He also says that it is unlikely he will pitch again, but can't guarantee he will stay retired. The Houston Astros, Texas Rangers, New York Yankees, and Boston Red Sox are all interested in acquiring Clemens, who will turn 44 in August after pitching to a major-league best 1.87 ERA last season for the Astros.
"It's very flattering that teams still want me," Clemens said. "But hopefully I can just fade away. I'm going to watch my sons play. I'll see Koby (a third baseman in the Astros organization) play a little bit and get my other one (Kory) out of high school. I'll stay active. There are a lot of things I want to do."
But don't rule out a possible return to the mound this season.
"But the only thing is if I'm sitting in the stands in Boston, or New York, or somewhere in May, and get the itch again, who knows what will happen?"
Stay tuned.
