Changing Blog Format

Please pardon the dust and construction tape. I'm trying out some new designs/formats. I will likely screw things up around here before it gets better, so bear with me. . .

In the meantime check out the cool background that features a rare 1887 Spalding Celluloid Umpire Indicator, when baseball used a 5 balls/4 strikes rule. That rule changed in 1889 (and some high school batters still haven't received the memo).

This "clicker" originally sold for 50¢ ($12 in today's money) and was auctioned off recently for $1,843.86:

Also check out the Categories of Previous Posts, at right. This organization should make locating topics easier.
