NY Mets 2006 NL East Champions!!
I believe in the church of baseball. I've tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones.I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic's rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball. And it's never boring, which makes it like sex...It's a long season and you gotta trust it. I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the church of baseball - Annie Savoy Bull Durham

ah it's good to be right
had a good night last night. fun phone conversation with my dad where we completely missed bill maher because we were having our own debate. we covered almost everything from gay marriage to greencards to baseball (and combinations of all of those!) poor dad. must be tough when i am always right;)
then i got to chat with jenni for awhile. it is fun to find new friends with so much in common. see what blogging can do?
we may try and catch a movie today and if the weather clears a bit go wander around new hope.
bloodsuckers have left so it is safe for me to come out :)
