Back to the Motherland

Later today i shall get in the Toyota and boogie down to Jersey to see Mel and Jan. Then mañana we'll head to the Nats/Mets game. Woo hoo! Then i'll drive back to CT in the evening. 

Oh baseball, how i missed ye! And it's always great to see my twisted sisters. 

Don't F*@k with Bean Town

The Chowderheads and the FBI got the two Boston Marathon bombers. Kick ass job everybody! Boston was locked down for the day and a police officer died, but they got them. Surprisingly, they got the younger brother alive. 

So let me tell you how it will play out; they'll interogate him, and find out why they did it. Then he'll be tried and executed. It's going to be a media zoo. But the dead deserve justice. The injured deserve justice. Boston deserves justice. 

And gratefully, Boston can go back to being Boston.

Back in the Land of Baseball

Oh baseball, how i missed ye. 

The Mets are playing a double-header in Colorado. Yesterday's game was canceled because Denver got 8 inches of snow. They will probably be snowed out mañana as well. It's like watching people play baseball in snow globe. 

Mets dropped the 1st game. They are up 8 - 6 in the 6th in the second game. It's been 2 games in horrible conditions and it's been a war. Me encanta beisbol! 

Although playing it in the snow is a bit f*%ked.

Patriots Day

A very sad scene of bloodied people and missing limbs in Boston. Horrible. I don't have anything else to say. What the hell can you say to a thing like that? My thoughts go out to all those affected by this senseless tragedy.

Healthy or insane

Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love until the end of time
Another runs away, separate or united, healthy or insane

And to be yourself is all that you can do

Sending out CV's. Fun, fun, fun. Saw the Adults play at Proud Mary's in Newtown with Smith on Friday. It was a great show. 

New Flaming Lips album mañana - yeah!

Sunday Night

i am listening to Julie Slick's first album. She is also in Adrian Belew's band and she is a monster bassist. The album is extremely progressive and weird. I love it! 


I walked 3.5 miles today and i feel it in my entire old body.

open your eyes

Spring is starting to take hold. Here's a pic from the cherry blossoms down in DC. Our Forsythia in CT bloomed this week. Nature is opening its eyes after a long cold winter. I've already kayaked once and played hockey with Colin and Kevin. I plan to kayak again this week. It's good to be out and about. Then next weekend it's down to the Motherland; New Jersey. I'll see Mel and Jan and we'll see the Nationals come in to play Los Mets. I haven't see a Nats game yet this year. But the Mets are off to a good start and that is fun.
