“People ask me what I do in the winter when there’s no baseball. I’ll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.”

Today I learned that Phish did a live cover of "Watcher of the Skies" for Genesis' 2010 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Today's task: going over my manuscript to add citations, as per my publisher's request.
