    Sucks to be me lately, this was icing on the cake for a hideous weekend month. :-|

    Game six of the NLCS tonight, and it's a high-drama game. The Cards lead the Giants 3-2 so they have a chance to go to the World Series if they win.
    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.

    Hopefully, the C's lose, Mr. Bay Area.

    Wouldn't have been fun to have another Bay Area WS?

    Of course. I was just playing up the drama of the game.

    I don't know, Janet, you undoubtedly remember what happened last time there was a Bay Bridge Series.

    I was pretty ok with the outcome. Fremont, remember?

    I had just driven north up the Cypress Structure on the Nimitz and across the Bay Bridge about 45 minutes before the quake hit. As far as I was concerned, it was proof that the powers that be in the universe could not tolerate the abomination of two Bay Area teams in a championship series at the same time.

    Whoa, you were closer than I was. I used to commute on the Cypress every day for 4 years, before I moved to Eastern Contra Costa county. If it wasn't for the World Series, a lot more people would have gotten killed when the Cypress went down.

    I had gone to the city that day for a meeting with some accountants. We got out by 3:00, and I was sitting outside at The Front Room in Concord having a Long Island Ice Tea with the ex at 5:04 when the quake hit. It was truly bizarre watching the asphalt on the street undulate, even way out there in CoCo county.

    Carl:

    Not to get all too old home week here's the KGO towers after the quake in the Fremont Baylands, on the east side of the Dumbo.

    And they creamed the Cards 6 - 1, forcing Game 7 tomorrow. Woo Hoo!

    Glad to see Ryan Vogelsong has really turned it around, after a hard-luck career here & a few years in Japan.
