I heard t-shirts are being sold that say 'Vick's an Eagle, hide your beagle'

Given that Boras likes to go down to the wire, we may see an absurd bonus coupled with a last minute signing. That said, it's still a crapshoot whether he'll pan out as a star pitcher. Mark Prior got over $10mil and he hasn't come close to being a star pitcher when he's not on the DL. That season was one of the most incredible single seasons by a pitcher- he won almost half of their games!

Absolutely it is potentially suspicious. Are you not aware that burglars target houses with for sale signs? And what can be seen from a window? Nothing, that's what. Anyone who likes a house from the curb needs to jot down the number and arrange a viewing. Period. You cannot judge the interior by peering into a single window. You're right that there is no crime and no law broken, but I sure as hell would want to have neighbors who call the cops about anyone looking into my windows while I am not home. So absolutely the cops should be called and they should check the guy out. Dylan understood their reasons for their actions, why can't you? Dylan was quite cooperative, but the cops still went way too far. The cops could simply observe him and determine that there is no crime. Instead her winds up getting a ride from the cops to identify him. That's something out of the old Soviet Union and should not happen in the US.

Texas may have an edge because I believe they have a pretty favorable schedule. They have a bunch of games against Baltimore/Minnesota/Cleveland/Toronto, and they'll all be just playing out the string. Should be an interesting WC race.

Final price reductions.

That's not wandering around the neighborhood looking at houses, that's trespassing. You want people peering through windows of houses whose owner isn't there? This isn't something for the police to investigate? A man looking into the windows of a house for sale is suspicious? He may want to see the layout of the house, may want to see if the house is damaged, etc. It could very well be a prospective buyer. There's still no crime and no law broken.

There's some stuff in this story that disturbs the hell out of me. A man walking around looking at houses is suspicious? He hasn't committed any crime yet he has to identify himself? When he doesn't have ID he gets taken away in a police car? WTF!!! Suppose there's a guy I personally don't like and I see him walking around my block but in fact he is doing nothing illegal. Now I don't like this guy so I call the cops and tell them there's a suspicious guy walking around. It turns out that he has no ID on him, so he has to get dragged to a police station? There's something seriously wrong here when people are dragged away from wherever they are simply because someone doesn't like their looks, etc.

Anybody see that clip of Shane Victorino getting doused with a beer as he caught a flyballat Wrigley? I was disgusted by the asshat who did that. The Cubs handled it well, apologizing for the idiot's behavior. http://starcasm.net/archives/12095

Count me among those who were unfamiliar with Prima Materia until now. I really like the sound clips I've heard, and I managed to purchase used copies of all three of their releases. Where did you find them? I heard some of the Swift are the Winds of life on WKCR today- excellent stuff

Spice-rubbed chicken cutlets on the grill, on a roll with BBG sauce and coleslaw, accompanied by roasted fingerling potatoes(some of them purple) with some backyard rosemary and a lettuce , cucumber and heirloom tomato salad.

Some price reductions, discs mailed today.

WKCR is playing his music until tonight.

PM received, on hold.

The breaking in thing is just nuts, but there may be some truth in some of the other things he said. Who knows how it went down as far as the musical direction of WR? It's possible that Zawinul & Shorter wanted to go a different way, but it's also possible that they weren't looking to make lots of $$$ and that they actually wanted to go the way they did for musical reasons. I wonder what Wayne Shorter would say?

Even with that they are only 3 games out of a playoff spot.

Some on hold, up for more eyeballs.

Same channel?

I was watching it earlier today, a lot of fun.

But..... that's damn near EVERY Red Sox fan, not just Dan. And even among themselves, they argue vociferously over who hates the Red Sox more! The Rangers are in the wild-card running. Woo hoo. Hey, I'm happy for them because they're doing infinitely better than anyone (myself included) thought they would do this year; but they still got a ways to go before they become the powerhouse they have the potential to be. Nevertheless, win or lose, they're my team and I'll always root for 'em! The Rangers also have some good talent down on the farm from what I've heard, so the future looks bright for them. Tied for the wildcard with 50 games to go ain't bad either.

I wish they would have done just a bio of Julia Childs- she led a very interesting life and changed the way the a lot of people approach cooking.
