Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
We launched the new front page last night. I original drew this on piece of paper while eating dinner in San Francisco. The food at Medicine Eat Stationwas something completely different, it was a vegan Japanese restaurant and they say it's what monks at 500 years ago. I have a hard time believing that, but it sounds great. What did monks eat 500 years ago? I'm sure it was minimal everything,...

Last night might have been a game for the ages. Giant Robot softball wins it’s 7th game in a row continuing from last season. Down 11-2, the team looked defeated. The Union Missions squad just scored 9 and were looking strong. The GR team looked like one of the past blunderous teams, making errors, bad judgements, and were basically off the mark. But a few hits in a row, and the action got going. Next thing you know GR was down 11-9 after a few rallies. A few more innings, and GR took the lead 16-11. The other team made it’s comeback and cut it to 16-14, but it ended there. An incredible victory. It’s a great way to start the season, and I know the past squads sans the end of last seasons wouldn’t have come back from something like this. Instead there would have been a second meltdown and more sad faces. Maybe one day when my finger feels better I’ll play again, but I sort of doubt it. It’s getting easier and easier to sit and watch.

Avocado tree. In my backyard is a big ass avocado tree. The shade from it darkens the entire yard, and the branches reach out to two different neighbor’s lots. A month ago, my dad came over to clean up the years of leaves that accumulated on the roof from the tree, and from the leaves popped out 6 young possums. Where was the mom or dad? They’re nocturnal, and neither parent was around. We put the six on the ground, some got thrown down along with the leaves, but landed safe in the big cushioned pile, and they slowly scurried off into the bushes. I hope their parents found them and they’re doing fine. Meanwhile, the avocado tree is producing in big ways. In a few minutes, I can pick 10, and these taste great once they soften up. gr/eats has been using my homegrowns, and they can never disappoint. Anyone out there know about avocados? It seems like my tree produces once every two years. Is that normal?
