Monday is not my Fun Day...
Stuck at a golf outing that I don't get to play in, so bitterness prevails. At least I get fed.
But just because I'm having a rotten day doesn't mean all of you out there should be deprived of something to read:
- Coldplay's "Live Leak" on MTV was un-freakin-out-of-this-world. If Chris Martin and the boys brought their "A" game, then add a plus to it. They played all the tracks off X & Y, which hits stores tomorrow but hit my iPod about 10 days ago (no dirt on my shoulder). And if "Fix You" doesn't make you want to cry or think of days long ago or call a long lost friend or whatever, call a doctor. You lack a central nervous system.
- Gene Wojciechowski, formerly of the Chi-town Tribune now of ESPN.com, is a great writer. This is no exception. I may steal this idea if I'm at a creative loss anytime soon. (like now, perhaps?)
- Kudos to Mike Myers, a guy who throws left, for emerging as the Sox' #1 lefty out of the pen. More kudos to Kevin Millar, who bats right, and had one of those weekends that you hope will catapult him into having a hot streak.
- More Sox...this past October, it was a champagne supernova in St. Louis, as the Sox claimed their first World Series in 86 years. Back to the scene of the sweep tonight, with the first of three games against the Cardinals. Last year, the boys rode into town, drank their beer, took their women, their shortstop, and paraded back to the Hub. We'll see how it all plays out tonight.
Oh, and the mystery of the universe - what TLBR means - has been revealed. Let's see if anyone can harken back to their Encyclopedia Brown mystery books and figure it out.
Back to the course. Enjoy your day.
One.
