Fun game Thursday. Homers and stuff. People seem to like that. And winning; they like that, too... Lots of roster moves, thanks to injuries caused by Hurricane Pujols. I've updated the org tree. Hooray for me...

Doesn't matter whether it's 2 hours or 2 minutes from my house. I'll find a way to arrive late. I paid $2 for parking and a Sunday LA Times which I didn't really want. It was a package deal. What the heck, they ...
