Baseball has never appealed to me. Maybe it has something to do with getting socked in the nose by my team mate Bobby Mason after practice one day. But I can certainly see the appeal and the sense of camaraderie the home run races have created. Since so many kids grow up playing baseball, it is easy to project oneself onto a baseball star and speak in terms of beating the record (as if the fans had anything to do with it). Seeing one of the great sporting contests in person is a great memory. Thanks for sharing!
Happy Holidays Glenn. May the showers go on for ever and the warmth never end...
Darn National Committee? Dumb Navel Collector? Damn Nerd Collective? Yeah. Once again the Demoncrats allowed the Republi-cons to dominate and control the conversation.

That photo exudes terror for me. And the Pike crew looks so calm.
You weave glistening webs of chaotic lives that entangle your readers. Victims struggling half-hearted against the coming conclusion. Afraid more of the end than what brings it.
Although I find it deplorable, I now accept that the GOP and the powerful right wing have mostly abandoned any attempts at governing in favor of a scorched earth policy based mostly upon a position of "no". However, resorting to destroying ballot boxes is an important new low. If it is found that the fire that destroyed the ballot boxes in Houston was the result of a deliberate action is civil war far off? For we must not stand aside wagging our fingers as our republic is torn down around us by a lunatic fringe.

Wow! What an interesting guy. He really seems like one of those guys who just gets things done. Even when it's not "supposed" to be doable. Great interview!
Although I am fundamentally against the use of nuclear weapons, I might make an exception for Las Vegas.
