Sunshine came softly through my
window today.
Coulda tripped out easy but I've
Changed my ways
It'll take time I know it
But in a while
You're gonna be mine iknow it
We'll do it in style
Cuz I've made my mind up
You're going to be mine

I tell ya right now

Any trick in the book
now baby
That I can find
Everybody's hustlin' just to
have a little scene.
When i say we'll be cool I think that
You know what I mean

etc. etc.

When people speak of the "Tragedy of 9/11" what do they mean? Do they think it was, like, a natural disaster or something?

Jes askin'.

Dad said...

Getting ahead on my comments in case I am incaciptated later.

Dad said...

Whoa. Coco! Nice Play!

Dad said...

There's no way that was a strike.

Dad said...

I can't believe they're bringing Timlin in NOW.

Dad said...

That would have been a good place for a hit and run play.

Nobody ever asks me.

Dad said...

Mom hates the commercail with the gorgeous young women who are in love with their cell phones, or not, and I hate the commercial with the old guy and the huge umbrella.

We both love the talking baby Etrade commercials with the clown and the blackberry. "Oooh, BAD girl."

Dad said...

OOPs. The laptop is overheating.

Dad said...

I'm in the lead. 11-0-0-0-0.

Mom said...

Maybe we'll just let Dad post all the comments tonight.

Anybody else out there?

Caleb said...

I'm here, Laura and Jason and Kate are with me. THey'll be on later.

Mom said...

1-0! Where are you guys?

Dad said...

Lester should come out with nose plugs in the bottom of the 1st just to make fun of Garza.

I mean, really, if there was a bad sign of any kind for TB it's the cotton stuffed in Garza's ears.

Caleb said...

we've been having techincal problems

but i think we're up again, for now.

Laura said...

We're good now. Up and running. Probably a few minutes behind though. Glad to see I'll be joined by the rest of the fam tonight!

Laura said...

Are you guys live?

Caleb said...

nice at bat by Tek here

Dad said...

Garza: "Yeah, I'm pitchin' game 7 of the ACLS tonight."

Bystander: "Whatsat in your ears?"

Garza: "Oh, just cotton, the crowd noise bothers me."

Bystander: "Yeah? You home or away?"

Garza: " Home..."

Dad said...

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laura said...

Hey. Are you guys live. Or what.

Mom said...

We are pretty close. Let's see, right now Willy Aybar just came up to bat. One ball.

Mom said...

commercial.

Laura said...

We are on commercials too. I think we are a minute or too behind you.

Mom said...

Dad stopped it to make popcorn so now I don't know. just started back to the game.

Laura said...

Popcorn! yum!

Mom said...

Hi, Kate!

Hi, Jason!

Caleb said...

i want popcorn.

Laura, go make popcorn.

Laura said...

If you gave me some pop corn I would make it.

Right now I'm playing with some kitties that Anna and I want to adopt.

Mom said...

are they those two kitties that were in the bathroom when I was there?

Laura said...

Those very same kitties.

Caleb said...

laura, damnit, popcorn.

Dad said...

YYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!

Mom said...

They were pretty! Can you adopt them?

Laura said...

Mooooooooooooooooooooooooom. POPCORN.

Mom said...

It's right here. I don't know what you're waiting for.

But DAD makes the popcorn around here.

Laura said...

Yes we can adopt them.

Caleb said...

who's this pappy guy, and why does he keep saying YOOOUUUUUK at inappropriate times?

Laura said...

Oh crap.

Mom said...

I believe you're related to him.

Dad said...

Kitties become cats and then you want to kill them.

Dad said...

The more you run over a cat the flatter it gets.

Luke Murphy said...

The Rays really don't want to go lying down. This game is making me nervous.

Sorry my internet has been weird until now.

Luke Murphy said...

This is a huge out right here. C'mon Lester!

Laura said...

I'm nervous too LUke.

Dad said...

Mom is convinced that the announcers are more enthusiastic about the Rays than the RS. Anybody agree?

Laura said...

I thought that last night!

Tonight I'm more preoccupied with how they pronounce Ortiz.

Mom said...

That's bothering me, too!

Caleb said...

I've thought that all series, yes.

Mom said...

It's so pronounced that I actually thought they were Tampa Bay's regular commentators until Dad told me tonight that they aren't.

Laura said...

Now that I'm paying attention to it, it's making me crazy. They almost sound upset when the Red Sox do something right. Which isn't happening often.

Luke Murphy said...

COCO! Half of his body was past 2nd by the time the ball got there, but he wasn't touching the bag! Oh mannnnnnnnnn.

Luke Murphy said...

Christ almighty.

Luke Murphy said...

Hey where is everybody?

Mom said...

We're too busy chewing our fingernails to type.

Luke Murphy said...

Crap. Definitely want to see a replay of that last pitch from the side or top.

Laura said...

I'm definitely without fingernails.

Luke Murphy said...

Yeah Drew swung.

Poor Coco. When he sees that replay of his slide he'll never forgive himself.

Mom said...

well . . . g'night everyone. Dad went to bed and doesn't know the end. He'll watch the last few innings in the morning, so meanwhile don't send him any e-mails.

Will we see some of you this weekend? Hoping so.

Luke Murphy said...

Don't hang your heads Red Sox, that was a great season.

I really can't say that I'm that upset. Actually I'm really happy for the Rays, they're a fun team. I'll definitely be cheering for them against the Phillies.

Mom said...

Well, I have to agree, they have nothing to be ashamed of. And I'm glad the last game wasn't a blowout for either side.

Philadelphia Murphies, will you be Rays fans or Phillies fans?

Laura said...

Go Phillies. Duh.

It was a good season. And now we have a long cold winter of stupid football.

Unknown said...

Hullo,

The bottom of our order is so weak and we missed several opportunities to score because of this. It was just sad watching Price vs. Tek. Go Phillies, I guess.

Sigh,
RS 09.
