[9] I did mean to say what you said.

[10] No comparison between Randy Newman’s song and Tynan’s comment. Many short people can take some heat about their size. Ever hear a blind person tell a joke about non seeing? Jews, except some who are self-hating, believe it can happen again. It is just hard to tell who will pull the trigger or release the gas.

Just for fun, tell me how being from Boston brings Jews to mind? The joke was that because he is so identified with the Yankees, he buys into the hateful part of the rivalry, the part that leads the Faithful to chant Yankees suck at games other than the ones where they are actually in the park, and may not want to live next to a Sox fan. He denied that his 7th inning singing role made him such an avid fan that it would be a problem. He missed the joke and then got serious.

Its never funny.

if they start on time I can catch the first 2 innings or so,

I’m pretty sure they’re going to let Molina do it.

[49] So Sciosia gets it about Mathis then..no way in hell he would hit AJ (at best get a gift walk)..
Enjoy the nap, if they start on time I can catch the first 2 innings or so, then it’s off to a stakeout!

Man, can you believe that MLB has to consult with FOX about rescheduling the game? I know TV money is everything but still..so if the game is postponed tonight, they’ll play at 4:30EST (5:30am for me!) tomorrow..so I either miss today’s game, or get up at 5:30 Monday to watch..I vote for 5:30!

[45] Roy Haynes is the last living legend of all those guys. he’s an amazing drummer and a super cool cat (from what i can tell, i’ve never met him…)!

[44] You got #44, Reggie my man!
“Drumming” is awesome, a real classic. Yesterday afternoon in my local jazz cafe the owner was showing me some pics from his time in NYC in the 1970s, a Great in-action photo of Roy Haynes behind the kit was one of them, you would have loved it.

[42] penn state just won 20-0! cool man, it’d be July or August, if it happens. looks like i’m gonna have to be in Philly end of June, so that might throw a crimp into the PSU visit, we’ll see. but it’ll happen!

[43] that title sounds familiar! the only Steve Reich CD i have, is called “Drumming.” shocker, i know. now, if we’re talkin’ Sacred Reich, well…i have their entire catalog! : )

RIYank, great stuff about the Phillip Glass. thelarmis, I dig Steve Reich and Terry Riley too, it took awhile but now especially love “Music for 18 Musicians” by Reich (is that the right title??)

I got to miss the game too! So I ask for RAIN!!

[40] i know, but you have to remember – i am an idiot who is VERY technologically challenged! also, there’s a problem with the cd drive in my laptop, as far as burning discs goes…

i only listen to 10″ vinyl and 8 tracks, period end of. the rest, is against my ~~religion~~ dietary preferences! ; )

[30] Dude, get the mp3s and then burn your own CD! Problem solved!

Do you know that I have never listened to a CD in my life? True fact. Vinyl or mp3s only.

[35] i liked college football for a minute back in the mid-90′s, but that’s about it. that said, i remember being a little kid in NY and watching Penn State in 1982 and i liked them. cool, classy uniforms and stuff. little did i know that a decade later, i’d be in school there!

Brooklyn is good stuff. it’s my bass player’s favorite beer…

if i’m up in State College next summer, you’ll have to make the trek to drink with us! : )

PSU driving…

[33] hey, i love college football. I’m drinking Brooklyn ales. Saving the pennant ales for tonight!! 2 down. many to go! Sierra Nevada is a good choice.

From LoHud:

Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes and Mariano Rivera could all be stretched to four or five outs tonight if need be. The off-day gives them that luxury, Girardi said.

also, there’ll be a pow-wow at 7pm to discuss playing tonight.

i hope it’s GAME ON!!!

[32] good for you, bro! i’m *always* cold, so i’m bundled up all the time, regardless of the weather!

glad you’ll get to watch the game and are already medicating. i need to time myself, so i’ll start late. whachya drinkin’? i’m always with my old standby – sierra nevada pale ale. when i’m home, it’s in a Penn State pint glass.

i don’t know why i’m watching the PSU game, but i am. i really dislike college football. but it’s nice to see my nittany lions. : )
