  1. That's about right, Chuck!
  2. RIP Connie White!
  3. Yes, and DC is pretty much out of the wild card race too.
  4. Tough DC schedule ahead: 3 v Atlanta, 3 v Philadelphia, 3 v SF. We could well be 17+ games behind the Braves by the time those series are through. Not Dark Yet (But Getting There!) You wouldn't want to read the Nationals discussion boards right about now.
  5. I was a fan UNTIL 2005, which is the year Houston went to the WS! Switched allegiance totally to Washington. So now my DC team may have to wait just as long as Houston did before going to the World Series. I may be dead before then! '86 was certainly a highlight. Great championship series with the Mets, who went on to win it all that year. The earlier team with Enos Cabell, JR Richard, Art Howe, Craig Reynolds, Alan Ashby, Terry Puhl, they were great to follow!
  6. Selig's deal for the Astros (making them move to the AL) is even worse than his bargain with Peter Angelos for a monopoly on tv broadcast rights in the region for Baltimore-Washington. It's really 2 markets, and Washington should be getting a greater share of the money made from MASN (Mid-Atlantic Sports Network), or free to negotiate its own tv deal with another vendor. No big deal to send a team to another league? Well then why didn't Selig just RETURN Milwaukee to the AL where they began and where they belong, instead of disrupt Houston's baseball history to this degree?
  7. Thanks! The 2 cd outtakes option would suit me.
  8. Major exception in the French music. Aks Bruce Daigrepont.
  9. You've been blessed, as you have blessed so many people yourself.
  10. Thanks! That never gets old.
  11. Got me right in the feels.
  12. Who are the strongest, most deserving candidates for the All Star team from YOUR team? For Washington it's Jordan Zimmermann and Ian Desmond. I would also say Gio Gonzalez who has really been very good but hasn't gotten winning decisions. Still the team usually wins when he pitches.
  13. Complex actor! Two recent Soprano episodes I have seen are the one in which he kills Ralphie over the horse and one in which he shows a tender side to Uncle Junior for his Alzheimer's. ("Believe me, there's a lot I'd rather forget!" "Me too.")
  14. Sam Morgan's Jazz Band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mKd_MaSprk
  15. He was Miffed because a Mole turned him in.
  16. I don't think that is correct. See this about "ownership:" http://www.marketwatch.com/story/who-inherits-your-itunes-library-2012-08-23 "According to Amazon’s terms of use, “You do not acquire any ownership rights in the software or music content.” Apple limits the use of digital files to Apple devices used by the account holder."
  17. Not sure I even really own the files I think I am buying from Itunes or Amazon Cloud. I think they just lease them to me to use with their programs. So I could not pass them along to heirs.
  18. Nationals drop below .500. Need to get a few players healthy and on board!
  19. What a slugfest in Baltimore! Both teams had 4 home runs last night, and though Ryan Zimmerman had 3 for the Nationals, it was small consolation for the Orioles winning 9-6!
  20. "Modern" began in the 1600s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_philosophy
  21. Shoot, try "early" jazz like from the 20s and 30s! This kid might be open minded enough for that, sounds like. Who knows what he'll warm up to.
  22. Does Butch Wax count? Even I had a flat top in the 4th grade.
