Could be worse...KC is 36 games out.

Yes I do

We have a ground squirrel living in our backyard. I guess he figures he's safe from preditors, but he's a large pain in the butt...he keeps digging up the yard.

Death to dodger blue! Go GIANTS!!!

That would be my era of drag racing, too. Back in the Day, the Rails had the engine in front of the driver: But the Funny Cars have pretty much remained the same:

I'm from Pomona, CA originally....you know, where the WinterNationals are held every year. Drag racing is in my blood. It in my ears, it's in my soul. My favorite dragster is the Funny Car. How about you?

My Giants are only 4 1/2 games out while the [hated] dodgers win their 10th in a row. Grrrrrr

I did this before with Columbia House. And you know my net result? Nothing. I never got one single CD.

A Jazz snob is somebody like the late Leonard Feather. If you didn't automatically accept everything he wrote in his column, he wanted nothing to do with you. That, my friends, is a Jazz snob.

As a former Music Plus employee....I concur.

I picked Louis Armstrong only because he is the most recognizable name in Jazz. I honestly believe all the other names will be remembered as well.

Happy New Year to all of you.

Hm. If Tower is going down in bankruptcy....what good is a voucher for any future purchases?

How different are you from your friends???? None of my friends [save my Best Friend...who would give you the shirt off his back] dig Jazz. Nobody I know cares about politics like I do, nobody gives a tinker's damn if Bush destroys the environment. I am surrounded by people who just have no clue about what it used to be like back in the Vietnam Era when the government controlled us the way they do now. I am a lost soul in a sea of blindness. No shit.

Just got broadband! It's da BEST, ain't it? Two clicks and a bang....and I'm there, bay-bee. Broadband ROCKS!

[ahem] Here's the real issue, Guys. Parents just need to be parents and actually step up and tell their kids enough TV is just plain enough. [duh] I mean, these are their kids, OK? Where are the parents on this issue, eh? We are raising a Nation of vidiots, I tell you.

BoSox win! Now, then...is the "curse" still a factor?

Well, it's about damn time. Stinkin' Yankees...GO Sox!

I don't want to see Jeff Kent in the WS. The traitor. GO Red Birds!!!

So! Don't believe in the Curse of the Bambino? Now we wait and see...Game 7, folks.

Hey, I was there once, when my dad was a professional drag racer back in the 70's. 1978, to be exact. It was one of his last races before he retired. Now THAT'S the highlight of my childhood: following my dad's travels across the country when he was a drag racer! No kidding? Wow. I left Pomona [finally] in 1974 to attend college in Long Beach. I have to wonder....maybe I saw him race. Could have happened

Ooo. What a shock. The Red Sox are losing [once AGAIN] to the rich-boy's Yankees.

A middle-class slum. Pomona, CA was a blue collar slum palace relpete with various pockets of poverty and one well-to-do neighborhood. Here's how it breaks out: South Side The Barrio Cherryville Ganesha Hills [the rich-boy part of town] Little Africa Sin City Ghostown [where I lived] The place was a dump then, it's a dump now. But...we did have the NHRA's WinterNationals Drag Racing at the LA Fair Grounds
