The Curse is broken, Dodgers win!

Sunday, May 30th, 2004

My curse is broken. I watched last night’s game, the Dodgers win. I go to tonight’s game, and the Dodgers win again!
Naeem now suspects I am a closet Diamondbacks fan, so I made them lose instead.

Books I’ve finished lately

Saturday, May 29th, 2004

I finished “The Confusion” a few days ago. Anytime I finish Stephenson I need a break from the headache. I will need to come back to it again, so I can see what I missed the first time. I bet I’ll still find new and interesting even after 30 reads. And then I’ll have to [...]

Dodgers Win!

Saturday, May 29th, 2004

The Dodgers broke their losing streak tonight, finding their bats. 10 zip over Arizona. A fantastic play by Alex Cora and Ceaser Iztures. Just fantastic. And people wanted to call me to have cake and ice cream and open gifts during the middle of this game.
They can be this good tomorrow, when I’m there.
Can’t [...]

Evening news

Thursday, May 27th, 2004

I received Bubba Ho-Tep on DVD a few days ago. I really love this movie. Hits it all on the right notes.
I received word today that Larry Capune died on Tuesday the 25th. I knew he was not doing well after his relapse of cancer, and I had mentioned that fact on a few previous [...]

Late night phone calls

Thursday, May 27th, 2004

Ok, I probably deserved the phone call at 10:30pm from M for some reason. She left her pipe down at the beach last Sunday, and was “Dying without it”. I told her she’d have to wait till Saturday or Sunday. She didn’t like that, but will probably live I think.
But really, those who know I [...]

“Let’s go, batter up, we’re taking the afternoon off!”

Long day

Monday, May 24th, 2004

So I get up at 3:45 to go to work. Get there a touch late, at 4:45 am, and yes that was late. Fortunately I left around 3:30pm. so not too long a day. I get back, rest up for a bit, them find that David Rosenkrantz uploaded his pics. All 110 megs of them. [...]
