Nice to see #OreCup maintains the primary feature of #MineralCup, making me make TOUGH choices! I’m #TeamCopper so I win either way, but #Bornite is just so pretty, a true rainbow 🌈 rock, and it was named after Ignaz von Born, which makes me think of Ignatz Mouse! Of such things are votes made/cast.

#OreCup R1M4: This match is coming hot from a hydrothermal vein as #Carrollite competes with #Bornite. Both are copper ores with a beautiful tarnish. You have 24 hours to decide!

#TeamCopper is going to make it through this match no matter what, so I'm free to vote for the prettier #Bornite. #OreCup

Just hearing the news about Sir Patrick Stewart retiring from acting. So much brilliance. So many iconic roles, but if I had to pick one (and thankfully, I don’t!), I’d choose his one-man show of “A Christmas Carol.” It’s a heart-strengthening banger! #SirPatrickStewart

It’s almost time for the first ever #OreCup. I predict a solid run for molybdenite, but that’s because I just love saying and typing molybdenite! #OreCup2025

I’m glad I’m a neutral here. Extra inning World Series games are thrilling and exhausting if you win, but gut-punches when you don’t.

I think it’s possible that Shohei Ohtani is maybe about as good as “El Maestro” Martín Dihigo. Not sure. Maybe the modern equivalent. Get into five Hall of Fames, and we’ll talk.

After watching this game tonight, I am left wondering if Ohtani is even the best Japanese player on the Dodgers at this point.
I kid. I kid. But wow, what a dominant performance from Yamamoto.

My wife & I are #Astros fans & pulling for the #Mariners, as we have many friends in the PNW. In fact, my wife, not a sports fan at all, started the 8th inning of G2 actually raising her voice: “Come on Mariners, PROVE SOMETHING!” I had to look over & make sure it was her. So, M’s, over to you now.
