Hidalgo was good offensively , Floyd was just downright offensive :rolleyes: Hey, I gotta make the wisecracks now. After tomorrow, I am gone for a week or more. Y'all will miss me, I am sure. :rolleyes: Must make a team and LET IT RIDE! Maybe I will pull a MaryCas and pick ONE whole team and fill every slot with it. Maybe Colorado. Maybe Kansas City. Maybe my beloved Dodgers. I have a tendency to wear my heart on my sleeve - I have a history of taking off my shirt.....

BTW - Sorry about not getting back to you about your computer, but I just went thru the same thing myself. In fact, it wasn't a software problem, it is some yet undiscovered hardware problem. So, I've had to replace my main system with my other one. Good, cuz it's much better and faster, but, bad, cuz it was my video-dedicated system. Ahh, well. At least now I can get on w/o the computer freezing up on me! I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored!

Then i come home today, and there's a pop-up like thing saying that I need to update my "Viewpoint Media Player" (I think it was). I didn't even know I had that, whatever it is, but I figure it came through from the "net, so I click on "update". I wind up with a new Yahoo toolbar, and the internet works again. I'm wondering if the internet fixed itself somehow, and that's how I got the Yahoo thing, or if getting the Yahoo thing fixed my internet. "Difficult....not impossible"

Shit happens, now I have to wait and see who comes out on top. LDV has been hit and miss on her picks this year and it seems to be a split choice among the top runners going one way the third and fourth going the other way. I see Geoff isn't to happy to be with LDV after her other run. Maybe we will see large negative numbers with the double header? Who knows till it is all over. Anyway good luck to you all. SC and I will watch the Marlins game and fight things out in the basement. By the way SC pick up some snacks will ya. ONLY gun owners have the POWER to PROTECT and PRESERVE our FREEDOM.

Remember, whoever comes to the game with me will have to pick the Marlins as their PS for that day (while I pick the Cubbies) just to make the game more interesting. 3 - I will try the MC route once - pick all the players from one team (if possible) for one day. 4 - If I ever get to any of your neck of the woods - I will let my fantasy buds know so we can go out and watch a ballgame (or whatever strange place Crabby takes me to!). 5 - I will talk more trash in haiku. Here's the first one: Too Little, Too Late You Have Buffy's Pitching Staff Bye, bye Mr. Pork 6 - I will once again prove myself as a 2nd half player (which we all know, is the half that counts anyway).

No, I'm not bragging that my nieces and nephews adore me, but one of my nieces gave birth to a boy, Christopher Elijah Jr., whom I think they'll nickname Elijah. Just so you know how close my family is, I got an email from my sister Angel, (who is not the grandmother) saying my niece had her baby, but doesn't know if it was last night or this morning. Her e-mail was entitled "Update". Kind of hard to be updated on something you never knew in the first place. I guess I'll be seeing a baby this weekend. Yippee!!!
