JRRyan would understand the reference. Anyway, there wasn't just one game last night there was two. Who walks Ortiz just to get to Manny? The Angels, that's who. Morons. Yes, his power numbers was down this season but he was battling injuries and he produced. Last I knew, he was the active career leader in grand slams so for him to hit a three run jack is not out of the question. I love it.

The Yankees losing was perhaps even sweeter. Joe Torre always looks like he needs a potty break even when the Yanks are winning but you almost feel sorry for him. You can almost see him packing his bags and being forced out of town on a rail. Yes, the Yankees could still win the next three games but only one team has ever pulled themselves out of a hole that large. I'll give you a hint who that was. No, actually, I won't. The paragraph above is enough of a hint. Did you notice that the Canadian Soldier ants where primarily attacking them not the Indians? My aunt suggested it was a ploy. That made me chuckle.

I love this game:

Musical Magic 8 Ball
Go to your music player of choice and put it on shuffle.
Say the following questions aloud, and press play.
Use the song title as the answer to the question.

NO CHEATING.

1. How does the world see me?
"Pure and Easy"-The Who. Is that a compliment?

2. Will I have a happy life?
"Go Your Own Way"- Fleetwood Mac. I'm interpreting that as a "Yes."

3. What do my friends really think of me?
"Laughing Out Loud."- The Wallflowers. As a guy with a sense of humor. Cool.

4. Do people secretly lust after me?
"Cockamamie Business"- George Harrison. ::Blinks:: Is that a "Yes?"

5. How can I make myself happy?
"The Difficult Kind"- Sheryl Crow. Get out of a terrible relationship? I don't see how that's applicable.

6. What should I do with my life?
"Cocaine"- Eric Clapton. Use cocaine. What a helpful suggestion...

7. Will I ever have children?
"Jealous Guy"- John Lennon. I think it's chiding me for asking...

8. What is some good advice for me?
"Fortunate Son"- CCR. Deny. Deny. Deny.

9. How will I be remembered?
"Sara"- Fleetwood Mac. I'll remembered as the guy who took her, different spelling, to the Senior Ball in college? Weird...

10. What is my signature dancing song?
"Angel On My Bike."- The Wallflowers. It's definitely a head-bobber/finger-tapper...

11. What do I think my current theme song is?
"Poor Little Girl."- George Harrison. LOL! OMG...

12. What does everyone else think my current theme song is?
"Don't Talk."- 10,000 Maniacs. I was voted twice as "Quietest" so this isn't fair at all...

13. What song will play at my funeral?
"Untitled Hidden Track"- The Pretenders. This song is only a 42 second instrumental. I don't know what that says...

14. What type of men/women do you like?
"Lovers of Today"- The Pretenders. A overly sensitive woman. This, sadly, is probably true.

15. What is my day going to be like?
"Layla"-Derek and the Dominoes. I'm going to spend it, apparently, pining for another man's wife. I'm not kidding...

it amuses me that we can now talk about the red sox, albeit still in a more limited way. Keep up this posting frenzy. It keeps me coming back for more, and heaps on the guilt that really is at the root of getting me to update mine own blog...

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c

Reversion To The Old Ways

Since there seems to be no rhyme or reason to which of my posts get comments and which don't, I'm going post whatever I feel like. Sure, I love comments but I must face facts that I'm not going to get them. No, I'm not going to review every episode of every TV show I'm going to watch this new season again simply because it doesn't appeal to me any more. To be sure, I will write about some of the new series since that does still interest me but not every episode... I am going to go back to complaining about my love life occassionally though because, if I can't discuss it here, where can I? Remember that workstudy student I mentioned being interested in? Yeah, well she's married apparently and I think even has at least one child so even if she didn't commute from such a long distance, nothing is going to happen with that. (Boo!) This is the first time I've discovered information of this nature before I made a complete ass of my self so this is go

The Big E and Other Commentary

Last night, we went to the Big E up in West Springfield. It was apparently Connecticut Day so the parade was all CT all the time. It was the longest parade I have ever watched. It went on like forever. We got a baked potato at the Maine Building and a Spiced Apple Cider Donut at the Vermont building as well as sharp cheese called "The Preacher." I wanted to get "The Green Mountain Boys" which was supposedly XX-sharp but my father wouldn't go for it. We then went to the Sam Adams Beer Garden where I ordered an Octoberfest. Mine was 20 ounces so it looked huge compared to the little cups of chardonnay my parents ordered. We then went over to get the special Big E cream puff. Has anyone heard Clay Aiken's new song? He's covering Badfinger's "Without You" of all things and, I really hate say this, it's pretty good... We're having another Movie Night a week from tomorrow. We've decided today that we're going to watch Akeela
