Beautiful.
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.

Let the words be yours, I'm done with mine.

Excellent story, Ebby.

Excellent.

I have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream
I can tell by the mark he left you were in his dream


Wonderful.

And, I concur about the lack of television coverage. I couldn't identify 90% of the Astros visually, I don't know their batting or pitching styles, physical quirks, etc.

Being a fan of this team is a lot like having Faith, in that you have to believe in things you cannot even see.
Shall we go, you and I, while we can,
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?

great, Ebby

y'all beware the spotted leopard crotch flu. I think Happy has it now.
Often wrong, but never in doubt.
