qwertyy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Rent a decent video and contemplate taking the last leftover painkiller/sleeping aid/antidepressant leftover from the root canal or whatever in your medicine cabinet. This has turned out to be surprisingly excellent advice. Thanky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Aussie woman to reach the Finals of the French Open in I don't know how long. At least 30 years I would think. Of course, I'm just toasting her with a cup of tea before rushing off to work, but even so. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic, but let's see what happens when he pitches against a REAL major league club. ETA - I got to watch a few of his pitches and MAN does he have some nasty stuff.

To the rest of the Lakers, especially Ron Artest who made the best of his umpteenth "last chance" & Pau Gasol for playing incredibly when it counted. To Kobe who will still be doubted as a player {with 5 rings}. TO Shasha Vujacic for calmly hitting two after being invisible almost all night! Wow!

Lydia R Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Last night I lifted my a glass of Hook & Ladder Backdraft Brown to this [late into the first inning] ChiSox fan. Baseball is really a big church and he's just in a different pew. We had a TV in security hold, but really just wanted to get to our seats. Note: Got this image from the iPhone toting guy next to us. Too cool to put down the beer and pull out my own camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waitman Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Bobby Byrd. An American original. Made mistakes, learned, repented, made up for them.

He's the closest thing i have to a brother and I'm over the moon about the whole thing, so I raise a glass and toast to all good things. (A pinot noir of his and his new wife's choosing, fwiw.)

Rovers2000 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 To George Steinbrenner...it is fitting that Bob Sheppard will be there to announce his arrival... As a Yankee fan he is responsible for many of the seminal sporting moments of my youth. But as a baseball fan, he changed the way the business worked for small (flooding teams with revenue sharing) and large (daring the other owners to spend to keep up) market teams. He will be missed.
