one of the very finest christmas recordings, ever!!!!

thanks--- i'll give paige a spin soon.

Ironic, isn't it? As for the previous Manny tongue bath, uh, I mean post, I was definitely one of those that bitched about Manny's money. He's a *one* dimensional player. Yes, he would occasionally have a Swaboda-like defensive play, but basically, he was a liability on defense... and on the base-paths... and eventually in the clubhouse. He can hit like hell, no two ways about it. But to ignore the baggage is denial. Teix will NOT have any easier time in NYC (ask the Giambino). When he's hitting .268 in May with low production, he'll feel the Bronx pressure, just as he would have in Boston. I'm *thrilled* to not have this team under the weight of another 8-year megadeal for umpteen million ducats per season. As I said yesterday, bring on Lars Anderson! i would not want to be betting my money on a 300+ pound pitcher who has logged huge innings. jeter is well past his prime. the lightening rod is the lightening rod.

werent the yankees just like week soliciting financial help in finishing their new stadium? http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2008/06/y...blic_finan.html http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2008/07/n...es_yankees.html http://www.reuters.com/article/sportsNews/...040155420080611

where is mannie going, then?

i'm digging now into some long unheard songs of the season and reflecting back as far as the mind can see.

thanks, all. may your holiday joys exceed your fondest dreams.

thanks. it's on the way out.

Tipsy turnover If you had invested $1,000 in Delta Airlines a year ago, you would have $49 today; $1,000 in AIG a year ago, $33 today; in Fannie Mae, only $2.50 today. But, if instead you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer a year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for a recycling refund, you would have received $214. Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily and recycle. It's called a 401-keg.

thank you for an eloquent and accurate observation.
