Darauf eine "Ron Swanson" Montage!

I regret to inform you that my dad is a pretty german dude, with a pretty bad memory at this point, so he can't even remember the last time we won a WC.
I'm also the only cricket fan in the family.
(Got your book, though!)

Die Pawnee sind das Volk in Indiana das eine prominente Rolle in der exzellenten Comedyserie "Parks & Recreation" spielt.

Die Pawnee vor den Appachen, Pueblo, Cree, etc schien mir ein Signal...

My heart just skipped a beat, because the @wgrumblepants.bsky.social handle wasn't clickable!
But I just confirmed he didn't block me and we still follow each other.
I don't know how I could have gone on living if the problem wasn't just a wrong bsky handle!

Wundert ja auch nicht, weil die Union stolz darauf hinweist von der "Heritage Foundation" gekauft worden zu sein.

My favourite Dan moment is also from the '81 series, it's the Star Trek technobabble-esque "Reverse the polarity on your Botham!"

Sie hätten sie "Cook Sharma Trophy" nennen sollen, nach Ishant Sharma, der Alistair Cook öfter dismissed hat als jeder andere Bowler (Wenn ich mich recht erinnere), und der das einzige Test Wicket von Cook war. In seinem letzten Test, 2018 im Oval.

Yeah, yeah, alright, I'll mention "The Convicts", that only lost one single game at "Lord's" during the 20th century...

Don't get me wrong, I know that Ukrainians have a distinct and great culture, but the Muscovites suppressed it for a long time.
And Cricket is the game of the people that overcame colonialism.
Just look at the West Indies during their heyday.
Or Murali.
Or India.

Mr President is such a great human being.
Here's hoping that after this war is done, I can host him at a cricket match between the german national team and @ukrainecricket.bsky.social.
You know, to explain why cricket is the sport for a post colonial country like Ukraine.

Sehr gut.
Ich hoffe er beantragt die argentinische Staatsbürgerschaft schon mal und lernt Spanisch.

Depending on your tastes, "Tangerine Dream" are kind of a cheat code for that kind of thing, so they don't count!

I see a "5 seamers, eff spinners" kind of battery on that pitch, to be honest!

just start to let it flow.
You begin to let go of all the constraints imposed by any schedule at all and start to realise that the process is the goal and just ride from then on out.
(I hope that makes sense, I'm not the best at explaining my emotions)

then start to listen to the music a bit more intently.
You start looking at your surroundings a bit more.
You begin to get the vibe of what this is going to be like.
You arrive at the first stop, take in the surroundings, associate the music with the place,

but listen to just enough to confirm that your choice is the right one.
You then put all of their stuff into a playlist.
You make a list of possible destinations.
You get in the car, start the playlist, overthink what you want to do for the first 30 minutes of the drive,

In situations like these, here's my go to plan: Look for a band with more than 2-3 albums out, that you think would fit the mood of the area you are going to.
The important part in this selection phase is that you don't familiarise yourself with the discography,

I might need to clarify this: His german isn't grammatically incorrect, or anything like that.
But it sounds like an AI that was only trained on Joseph Goebbels and Opus Dei speeches.
It is quite jarring how he has no feeling for speech.

As a german: Merz's german is pretty bad.
Because he's a dipshit that idolises his Grandpa (whom he never met), who was a member of the SA.
The guy just idolises Trump because he would really like to be as amoral and openly corrupt as him.

Laß mich dir als Medienkauffrau sagen: Bankkaufleute sind für den Rest der kaufmännischen Berufe die aussätzige, durch Kriegseinwirkung verpuckelte Verwandschaft mit der man aufgrund ihrer Ekelhaftigkeit nicht auf dem Familienfoto zu sehen sein will.

@kingcricket.co.uk summarising the scoring at the end of the 3rd Test of the '81 series makes me chuckle every time!
"3 to Beef, 2 to Bob, 1 to ... sticking a few bob on!"
That is gold!

Sometimes I'm thankful to live in a german speaking country.
Because the exact same thing would happen to me, and people would look at me even weirder if I constantly zoned out at the utterance of the word "hindsight".

Didn't know that, I just listened to the '09 series again yesterday, and that immediately came to mind.

("I ain't got time to bleed!") going.
And there is a nice bit of foreshadowing going on in the 1st Test of the '05 Ashes, when Justin "CTE" Langer gets smacked in the face and England draw first blood (literally).
Because there is another "Predator" quote about blood:
