Good morning!

First things first: the premium account snafu from Friday has been fixed. That’s nice, even if it caused me to gnash my teeth a great deal.

Also: I’m done traveling for the near term, so we’re back to usual newsletter protocols today. We have the recaps, we have the news roundup, and we have the Other Stuff, which includes something impossibly cute, a great TV idea of mine, a naked man walking around Burlington, Vermont, and some followup on a big heist I talked about back in April.

Well, OK, the news roundup is weird today for reasons explain below. But I think it ended up being entertaining thanks to a little bit of baseball history and a little but of food poisoning.

Confused? You won’t be, after this edition of Cup of Coffee.
