Random Tuesday morning thoughts

• I've lost any remaining respect for Cleveland Indian fans. Jim Thome returned to Cleveland last night and got lustily booed by the fans. He started his career in Cleveland, established himself as a great player and left as a free agent. Bitterness is understandable but they were ugly. In the ninth inning Thome was nearly hit in the face by a pitch. That brought the biggest cheers from the Cleveland fans. Ugly.

• Experts are divided on whether Tyra Banks ego can be seen from space. Apparently, taking a person, elevating them for their looks and then giving them a talk show has that effect on people. Hosting a show where she gets to tear apart young girls who are trying to be her also has some effect.
  
• Contrary to popular myth, the Great Wall of China can't be seen from space.
  
• Calypso spent large portions of yesterday hunting a spider. Isn't 'housecat' the best job?
