Good Luck I will keep you in my thoughts. I have four d I was moaning to Amato this afternoon that I just knew Ryan Howard would lose tonight’s game for us, I just knew it. He said nah, you got Halladay, the Phillies will be fine.
But as a lifelong Philadelphian, I have a finely-calibrated nose for the stench of collapse. Oh well!

Seriously, how frustrating (and silly) is this, that the DEA is keeping people from getting needed medication? Medicines to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are in such short supply that hundreds of patients complain daily to the Food and Drug Administration that they are unable to find a pharmacy with enough pills to fill their prescriptions. The shortages are a result of a troubled partnership between drug manufacturers and the Drug Enforcement Administration, with companies trying to maximize their profits [...]

Choosing a person to support for president is what it must be like in a women’s prison, and you’re trying to decide which guard to let fuck you — on the off chance that he might throw you the occasional contraband goodie. But you should never, ever forget that all the guards are on the same team. Bookmark It

Hmm. We already know austerity is the right thing to do, but What do you suppose will happen? Oh, I don’t know, you don’t suppose they’ll have a housing crash, do you? Nearly seven million Britons are risking a “spiral of debt” through using credit cards, overdrafts and payday loans to pay off their rent or mortgage, a major housing charity has warned. Of those almost one million have taken out high interest payday loans to meet housing costs, in [...]

Bad things seem to happen when voters put social-engineering wingnuts in charge. Maybe they should think about that: A study by the Georgia Agriculture Department of the state farm workforce shows that finding legal employees with the skill and desire to do labor-intensive harvesting is extremely difficult. The reasons, says a report released Tuesday of the study’s findings, include the complexity and expense of government programs intended to help farmers employ guest workers, and the physically demanding nature of many [...]

Tonight: If you snooze you’ll lose Wednesday morning, when a little known but active meteor shower will start 2012 for people stalwart enough to brave the chilly hours before dawn. The Quadrantids, named for a now-extinct constellation, will be visible for two hours early Wednesday, from about 3 to 5 a.m. local times. The shower is likely to produce up to 100 falling stars an hour, making for a good show. People across North America who stay up late enough, [...]

Don’t be so hard on Howard. His ground-out was only one of 27 outs Chris Carpenter tallied without allowing a run to score. As disappointing as it is, it was just one of those games where the pitcher would not be denied.

It’s just sports – a pasttime to distract you from how awful things really are. There are far more important things to be upset about, but i understand.

Hey Suze, you wanna talk about STENCH???? Did anyone notice what happened to the Braves here in The ATL……………………..AAAArrrrgh!

My first thought was that a disgruntled Phillies fan had shot the scapegoat.

Good pitching generally beats good hitting. And RH was the perfect one to end the game, seeing as how he couldn’t buy a hit against any pitching. Halladay was great; Carpenter was a bit better.
I thought the World Series would be the Yanks against the Phillies. I bet the Yanks and the Phillies thought the same. (I’ve been a Yankee fan for some 60+ years, since I was a little kid growing up on Long Island, so I do empathize.)
IMO, the teams with the fire in their bellies won. What next? The Rangers better watch out. They are not a sure thing, not the way things have been going.

They never shoulda played on Yom Kippur.
