Twerve Days of Baseball

E. TODD:

Ok, folks. I just finished my first stint driving. I think the other guys pretty much covered PNC Park. But Jill, aka PNC Girl from previous posts, met up for a drink right before batting practice. Also, Morgan and Ed both got balls during BP. Ed rummaged for his after a dinger made a safe landing in the bleachers, and Morgan got his after making nice to AJ Burnett. I was on the phone with the Sherpa and he told me to tell AJ that the Boss says hi. Needless to say, AJ had no clue what I was talking about. But I was happy to see the Fish win, and Dontrelle's leg kick is something you gotta see in person.

Surprise of the day for me:
Crossing the Ohio border and seeing that we were entering Indiana, not Illinois. Gotta work on my midwest geography.

Surprise meal du jour:
The 1/2 lb Sourdough Thickburger from Hardee's. It is pretty reminiscent of a Sourdough Jack from Jack in the Box and absolutely tasty.

MORGAN:

Though mentioned in a previous post in reference to his new show, "Pimp My Computer", I would like to send out another personal thank you to Devo's brother Josh. My Dell is running smoother than ever, and this browser Fire Fox is really gr8. The hard reboot that you performed has enabled me to send out new listserves from my browser and my mainframe has remained remarkably stable. I feel like a new man--though that may sound strange coming from one man to another. Below are some lists I could send out on my listserve:

Early Candidates for Best Town Name:
- Scaggsville, MD
- Intercourse, PA
- Shy Beaver, PA
- Bird-in-Hand, PA
- (Col. Nathan R.) Jessup, MD/PA

Biggest Early All-Star Voting Travesties:
- Nomah as NL Starting Shortshop
- Ken Griffey, Jr. as NL OF

Potential Future Highlights on this Trip:
- Devo's Birthday Yucca/BBQ in Kansas City Sunday
- Sox vs. Cards World Series Rematch in St. Louis
- Field of Dreams pickup game on Saturday
- Willy Mo Pena Bobblehead Night in Cincy
