Ted Williams....(Teddy Ballgame)
The Greatest Rivalry in Sports Is, No Doubt
Between The Red Sox And The Yankees
"It breaks your heart.
It is designed to break your heart. The game
begins in the spring, when everything
else begins again, and it blossoms in
the summer, filling the afternoons
and evenings, and then as soon as the
chill rains come, it stops and
leaves you to face the fall alone. You
count on it, rely on it to buffer
the passage of time, to keep the memory
of sunshine and high skies alive,
and then just when the days are all
twilight, when you need it most,
it stops. (This year, October 18, a
Monday) of rain and broken branches
and leaf-clogged drains and slick
streets, it stopped, and summer
was gone."

A Little History Before We Continue
Before I take you anywhere else I think it
is best that you know a little more about me. Did I mention that I come
from Boston? Well, yes.... born and raised and I have the accent to prove
it although we don't think of it as an accent at all.... We are positive
it is the correct way to talk and figure that everyone else just talks
funny. I did a four year six month hitch in the US Navy and had tours of
duty in:
Fleet
Sonar School, Key West, Florida
Argentia,Newfoundland ...and
Visit my wife's homepage.
She's from Connecticut and talks funny but I'm sure you'll like her page.
It has everything from quilting (her second love...*wink*) to nature, whaling
and many other great things.
