Good Morning

You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat. - Albert Einstein

Time to start the off-season beard.

I shave it off on the first day of Spring Training…

I WAS hoping not to start it until late October this year :(

Thank God that it is finally over

No idea why I feel like that, but I am just happy that we can turn the page on this season

Got six more games to play and I will be at all of them.

At least I made it back in time before they were eliminated which has been my goal this month. Also Fuld went 3-4 and should be batting .300 now..
