at least I have the cats

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

There’s something rather disheartening about waking up and realizing that your sole desire is to become a feline and lie in the sunbeam all day. Thousands of years of evolution and I just want to go back to a day before human socialization.
I seem to have some sort of problem, everything can seem to be […]

the gut is a terrible thing to waste

Friday, August 10th, 2007

The mind-body connection is an amazingly powerful force as evidenced by these recent findings about obesity. To paraphrase the article: surround yourself by people who are getting fatter, and you will also become fatter. Surround yourself by people who are getting skinnier, and you will get skinnier as well. Distance is not a factor, […]

the jinx

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

I have spent years trying to figure out the right combination of shirt, cap, shoes, food, location etc. to make the Dodgers win. I have retired t-shirts after 3 losses. I have spent 3 innings pretending to stand in line for concessions because the Dodgers had a rally while I was buying a Dodger Dog. […]

slipping out of our reach

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Goddamnit Dodgers! STOP LOSING. This is out of control. Four for your last fifteen? One for your last six? That was the single most depressing homestand I’ve been to and we need to start picking it up. The playoffs are not a joke. I know Kent is hurt and Martinez’s avg is in the negative […]

screw the helplessness

Saturday, August 4th, 2007

I am making another step toward health. Back in June I made a commitment to start taking better care of myself.
Now is phase two: I am entering THE ZONE. After successfully giving up all sodas and starches and taking my fish oil and green tea, I decided I will try to go one […]

let’s be more become socially conscious

Saturday, August 4th, 2007

Women should only own one bra, on the off chance that the bras are made by sweatshop workers who are being oppressed by low wages and unsafe working conditions. If that one bra happens to be one with straps, well, you’ll just have to make do with it and figure out how to work it […]

balls in the bullpen

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

I was taking some photos of the bullpen and then this bitch with her implants plops down right in my view of Sanchez pitching. And I said “I can’t see the bullpen” and she said “my daughter wants to see.”

Well you know what? Her daughter didn’t want to see. Her daughter was 2 and was […]

endangered species

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

That is the biggest whale tail i’ve ever seen. It must be a blue whale or whatever that biggest one is that they always make posters of and show how it’s bigger thanĀ 6 cars or longer than a football field.
