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

trains planes and....well, really just trains
i think i have worked out a solution to the nightmare commute. if anyone out there is familiar with nyc and its various trains and feels like letting me bounce a few questions off them it would be appreciated.
at any rate. there is a train station pretty much at the campus which would eliminate the gauntlet run we made monday. i am hoping for the best.
also, i wish i knew which texts (if any) to bring friday so i didn't lug them all in. i hate to be the one without a text but hefting nine books back and forth seems a bit extreme as well. this was all so much easier when i had a 5 minute commute!
