New PC and Prohibition

Well the technical difficulties have come to an end. I purchased a new PC Tower I found on Craigslist...It's working famously and I am sure it will inspire great things.

As of 3:04 EST I am sitting atop the heap in 1st place at Tom's Trivia Challenge...of course there is a lot of time left in today's game.

Woke up this morning to a cool rainy day. Quite the change from the weather we have been having around here of late. I must admit I do like the cool weather...such a welcome relief to the heat and humidity.


I received the following picture of a poster that was used during Prohibition and I think it would have inspired me to drink more...

What a Happy Bunch

I'd have to slug back several shots of moonshine before I would ever want to kiss one of those gals !!

Joke in my EMAIL !!

Golf Balls

A man entered a bus with both of his front pockets full of golf balls & sat down next to a beautiful blonde. The puzzled blonde kept looking at him & his bulging pockets.

Finally, after many such glances from her, he said, 'It's golf balls'.

Nevertheless, the blonde continued to look at him for a very long time, deeply thinking about what he had said.

After several minutes, not being able to contain her curiosity any longer, she asked, 'Does it hurt as much as tennis elbow?'

Last Three Games Bay vs Ramirez

Jason Bay:4 hits 11 at bats 1 HR and 3 RBI's for the Boston Red Sox

Manny Ramirez: 8 hits 13 at bats 2 HR's 5 RBI's For The Los Angelas Dodgers...funny thing is....

The Red Sox are still paying 7 Million Dollars of Manny's Salary.

Experiencing Technical Difficulties

Today my computer was declared officially DEAD !! What a pain. I will be replacing it soon but until such time I will not be able to post too much,,,,please stay tuned and of course keep up with your Trivia...

In the meantime I have begun reading what the Modern Day Library considers the Top 100 works of fiction.

1st Up is Ulysses by James Joyce. It was originally banned in the U.S.A. it is not a particularly easy read but I am beginning to catch on to his style.

Here is the LIST

The Boston Red Sox traded my FAVORITE PLAYER yesterday !! Manny Ramirez has gone to Los Angelas to play for the Dodgers !! Personally my favorite Manny Moment was this year when he made a running catrch in the outfield and then leaped up and slapped five with a fan, turned around and threw the the ball into 2nd base making a double play. What an arm, What a Bat I will miss him and his Manny Moments!!




Good Luck Manny !!
