the astros seem to be in a vortext of some kind. they are being sucked down into the vacuum of mondaneness. maybe it is a space time thing. i know the team is not made up of superstars , but can the defence and the offence both impolde at the same time. it has to be some kind of practical joke of the fates because surely the muses and gods of baseball could not be so cruel. something good has to come out of this season. you know how when you are at walmart and see something uber cheap.. i found astros peanuts for 1.50, or like you find out you can bring food into the ball park. (not at mmpus tho). its like wow that was a good thing. i mean it may just be the improvement of q or that the astros are a second half team..right now being an astros fan is slighlty painful. but to me the pain would be greater not to be one
If I were to offer a critique of this post, I'd have to compare it to watching my dog chase his tail. And when I say "chases his tail", he's on a mission to make that mo-fo pay for wagging. And like this post, I have to pay credence to the perseverence. My dog can chase that damn tail for 20 minutes (usually before he passes out for the night). If he should happen to get hold, he doesn't just nibble, he chomps down on that sucker. I was concerned, at first - he was adopted so you get some unique issues with that - as I thought he was going to bite it off. Alas, in the end, there was no harm done, he went to sleep peacefully, and the only negative is when my kids get too close to the spinning dog act (he launched my 7 yr old, on impact)...
In short, don't pay it much attention and keep your kids at a safe distance.
