Tuesday! A day to enjoy the start of the MLB season--and pray for rain. Again.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.

The good news first: Baseball season has officially begun and Monday evening is the first official SF Giants game (in Arizona, vs. the Diamondbacks.)
Hoorayzzzzz!
But then there's the Other News. And I can't tell you how that will work out. It's a rain forecast for the West Coast. You regulars here at IAN know how I feel about rain
and how I feel about the drought.
Lots to cry about, not a lot to laugh about
Tuesday will tell if we get even a bit of relief. (Even torrential rains--hahahahahaha; as if---wouldn't solve the drought at this point.)
But the start of baseball season helps, some. Go Giants!
Mon Apr 06, 2015 at 10:51 PM PT: 10:30 PM PDT: The Giants beat the Diamondbacks in Game #1 of the season. That's good. Great to see Madison Bumgarner pitch again--he the hero of the 2014 World Series. As for the r--n, "supposed" to start after midnight. Come on Atmosphere! Give it up for CA!!!!
