HA! Love you BoSox fan! Way to interfere with the play!

I wish teams would just have one home uniform and one road uniform, I hate all these different looks in uni's.

There is no way in heaven, earth, and under the earth, that this is going to work out. Artest can not ever control his desire to be the center of attention. The Lakers must feel that Odom is gone to make this move.

I was in Baltimore the day after this game. Needless to say, all the people around me were still talking about it.

I think a better question is: Who didn't you guys have salacious thoughts about?

Let me be the first to point out that the Mariners took two of three against the Dodgers! Noj, eat your heart out!

Re: Drew. I was watching his first ab today, and those stats flashed on the screen, who knows what they were for, I wasn't paying close attention so I thought they were season stats. My bad.

Since when is it okay for J.D. Drew to have 25 home runs & 74 rbi's? or Wakefield to have 10 wins? When I say you're overrated stay overrated players! I don't like this development.... at all.....

It'll be interesting to see this Rick Rubio guy play, sounds too good to be true....

The Zen Master says the Lakers have green lighted him if he wants to only coach away games... What The Heck??? Edit: Oops! I mean home games!

Hate to be a know-it-all here, but if the helmet is touching the body at the time of the tag, it is considered a part of the body, therefore the runner is out.

One of my favorite Ed McMahon moments! We miss you big guy!

I went to two tappings of The Tonight Show with Leno. It was nice, and he was nice, but my gosh, he is just a terrible interviewer, deadly boring. The band wasn't all that happening either. As Fasstrack says: "Different world now", and definitely a different entertainment world now.

Really sad news, I would watch Johnny & Ed a lot during the 70's. The Tonight Show has never been the same since those two left.

What do you know? Seattle 35-34, and just 2.5 games out of first. Of course, Mariner fans have been down this road before, but I'll enjoy it while it lasts, plus, the Angels don't look all that hot either.

For some reason, I've have this desire to read a lot of Faulkner, so I'm starting with The Sound and the Fury. The April Seventh, 1928 chapter is amazing.

Chocolate milk, and it's very good.

Bobby Cox is still alive!!!??? Who knew?

Gosh, I really hate the uniforms the Red Sox are wearing tonight! Second game in a row, I thought they were dead yesterday going into the ninth.

You know, I hate to even mention this out loud, but the Mariner ownership digs Japanese players, and has some pitchers/players it's willing to give up, so maybe....

Yeah, he's getting ripped pretty good, Braves just scored run #5. Matzu is just weak right now.

With all the talk of the upcoming Artie Shaw Mosaic, I broke out the Artie Shaw: Begin the Beguine box set; listening to cd five, Alone Together. This is a very good box set for Shaw, ten cds at a cheap price and the sound is very good (most of the time), and I happen to like to vocals also! (hear that Mosaic?)

The Complete CBS Recordings of Eddie Condon and His All Stars. I haven't listened to this in a long time, so I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Mighty fine stuff.

Watched the Cub game this afternoon, a very nice come from behind win after being down 5-1 going into the ninth. Chuck must be a happy camper tonight.

Finished the last of Thomas Merton's Journals. Have very mixed emotions about Merton's life after reading all seven volumes, they do not paint Merton is the best of lights, and in fact, showed Merton's failure as a religious. It is very obvious by the journals that Merton was a conflicted person; striving to find God, live as a hermit, but his emotional make-up did not allow him to do that. One of the tragedies of the whole thing is Merton's inability to pull his life together, in fact, in volume five you witness his disintegration over his falling in love with a student nurse -- he was in very bad shape during that time. By the time he gets to his trip to the Far East, even he knows that his time is up at the monastery in Kentucky, and he will wind up somewhere else. Even so, he dies on that trip, and the casket is flown to his monastery, where he is buried. A very difficult life to understand, where he kept on proclaiming how he wanted to be left alone, and yet, he was unable to accomplish what he wanted his life to be. Truthfully, his last couple of years were a mess. Closed the last journal with a tremendous sense of sadness...
