Go Sawks!
Oh no! They're losing! Now all the Yankee bandwagon fans are going to be in my face! Connection between them and Giambi's intestinal parasites merely a coincidence? Hmmmm.

This is the song and these are the lyrics that whipped me into shape yesterday. I know that I post favorite lyrics periodically, perhaps to a fault. But this made me sit in my car (idling in the driveway) and think and totally recontemplate. Result? I win.
Ben Folds Five : Mess
there was a time when i had nothing to explain
oh, this mess i have made
but then things got complicated
my innocence has all but faded
oh, this mess i have made
and i don't believe in god
so i can't be saved
all alone as i've learned to be
in this mess i have made
all the untested virtue
the things i said i'd never do
least of all to you
i know he's kind and true
i know that he is good to you
he'll never care for you more than i do
but i don't believe in love
and i can't be changed
all alone as i've learned to be
in this mess
i have made the same mistakes
over and over again
there are rooms in this house that i don't open anymore
dusty books of pictures on the floor
that she will never see
she'll never see that part of me
i want to be for her
what i could never be for you
but i don't believe in god
so i can't be saved
all alone as i've learned to be
in this mess i have made
I smoke and drink and ply and think
and work and play every day
this life is a messed up interstate ride
over and over I’ve died and died
I run and read and trip and bleed
I surf and slave and try to behave
But I can’t I won’t I hate to be told
What to be like to fit the set mold
I’m my own judge, I’m my own jury
I snap at the leash in a fit of fury
(late entry....)
Mets and Yankees in an eternal rain delay. I intuitively infer that people all over the tri-state area (NJ, NY, CT) are drinking beer in desperation. This could get ugly.
I’ve used the “ugly” term a few times before. Only once has it been drama-queen discombobulated. To me, ugly means unedited and sloppy. To those with a mission, it means something else entirely. As in “mixed message”.
