Sometimes, my life circumstances make it impossible for me to write at any length about stuff. Like now.  The A’s are on a 10-game losing streak, and I don’t have time to think or write about it.  So I’m trying a little experiment:  throwing up a bunch of quick links on Catfish Stew when I find something interesting, but don’t have time to absorb it.   For now, these quick links will only show up on Catfish Stew, and not on the Toaster home page or in the "Hot from the Toaster" list.   We’ll see how the experiment goes.
