Lincoln's Mullet: The Longest Day
http://donnybaarns.blogspot.com/2011/02/longest-day.html
Winning no awards since 2010. Friday, February 11, 2011. I wrote this on June 22nd, 2007, in Alaska. It was the day after the famous annual Midnight Sun Game. This has to be the most stressful day of the year for you," I say to Goldpanners owner Don Dennis as we drive to the local Sam's club for a last-minute concession stand stock-up run. Yep," he said. "After this, the summer just flies by.". Mr Dennis is especially talkative today. Even in his late seventies, having owned the team for forty years,...

Winning no awards since 2010. Thursday, December 2, 2010. Obituaries: Jane, Dell Inspiron Laptop, Dies of Natural Causes. It is with sadness that we announce the passing of loyal Dell laptop Jane, who lost consciousness during a routine morning bootup last week. Despite being immediately rushed to a tech center, efforts to revive her were unsuccessful, and she was pronounced dead of massive video card and circuit board failure. Jane, pictured in the foreground 3 months. In Lancaster, CA. Always a restles...

Lincoln's Mullet: Random Thoughts: Hamburg International Airport
http://donnybaarns.blogspot.com/2010/11/random-thoughts-hamburg-international.html
Winning no awards since 2010. Friday, November 5, 2010. Random Thoughts: Hamburg International Airport. I flew into and out of Hamburg International Airport with my Grandmother on our way to Switzerland back in 2000, and even though we were only there for several hours, it still sticks with me vividly. This stunning modernity creates a feeling, at least for me, of radical freedom. Wherever Dodge is at the moment, I'm about to get out of it. Posted by Donny Baarns.

Lincoln's Mullet: On Moose and Modern Society
http://donnybaarns.blogspot.com/2010/11/on-moose-and-modern-society.html
Winning no awards since 2010. Wednesday, November 10, 2010. On Moose and Modern Society. This piece was from July of 2007, when I was spending the summer in Alaska and working for the Alaska Goldpanners of Fairbanks as their broadcaster. It was my first professional gig, and it was a mind-bending experience. I made a couple personal observations about a place that seems very foreign to most in the Lower 48.and was certainly a whole new world to me). The more you see of Alaska, the more you realize that i...

Lincoln's Mullet: Vegas, Day 1
http://donnybaarns.blogspot.com/2010/11/greatest-hits-vegas-day-1.html
Winning no awards since 2010. Monday, November 8, 2010. Vegas, Day 1. I suppose it's appropriate that the Baseball Winter Meetings have finally come to Vegas. It brings together thousands of desperate people and converges them on a city that has made desperation a cash cow. They have no idea. They walk around with their big credentials (with the heading "JOB SEEKER" emblazoned across the top) like wide-eyed zombies. "Jooooooooobbbbssss! I walk toward the convention center, and there's hardly anybody in t...
