    BTW, a beautiful summers day yesterday and today. Humidity is relatively delightful and the temps are in the low to mid 80s. Let's see if the Yankees win some games now.

    The really hot days are almost over with. Still gets pretty hot in the city, but mid 80's now, instead of upper 90's.

    Highs in Evergreen CO are under the 80 degree mark, with lows in the 50's or cooler. Ahhhhh, that's better!

    I'm not sure about that Soriano addition. How many DH/1B can a team have?

    The hottest part of the year in California has yet to come. It's usually in late September or early October.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I've always felt they should've never traded Soriano. We'll see if he's better at 37 than he was when he was younger.

    How many DH/1B can a team have? It's the Yankees. They can have as many as they can buy. At least that's how it's worked since I can remember.

    Same with the idea of plate tectonics when it was discovered by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th Century. In fact until the 1960s with the discovery of the mid-Atlantic rift, Plate Tectonics was debunked by scientists.
    And when evidence was found to support Wegener;s hypothesis things changed. There was reasoable evidence to support his ideas.

    Unlike Galileo or Wegener decades of research has not convinced anyone that the "Bahgdad Cell" was indeed a cell. In fact it's very design indicates that it most likely was not a cell.

    Don't get me wrong. I think it would be cool if they could confirm that it was actually an electrochemical cell. The mystery of why, fpor what purpose, would be interesting. However, the present evidence doesn't seem to support the electrochemical cell idea.

    The climatologists are claiming that this part of Vancouver Island will have a California like climate within 30 years! ...... the way the weather's been going this summer and what it's been like the last few years it seems like California already!

    (I've been in Anaheim California to Disneyland in October 1994 and remember it being 105 degrees F for a few days) :-P
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt! :roll:

    Summer isn't over until the fat lady sings and that happens mid to late October.

    Global warming, climate change:
    The ice age is coming, the sun's of an end
    Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin
    A nuclear error but I have no fear
    Cos London is drowning and I live by the river

    Now get this
    London calling, yes I was there too
    An' you know what they said - well some of it was true!
    London calling at the top of the dial
    An' after all this, won't you give me a smile?
    London calling...

    Nothing really matters,
    Anyone can see,
    Nothing really matters,
    Nothing really matters to me.

    Any way the wind blows.
