Hey Yankees! Watsa Matah?
Not doing that good this century?????
Boo Hoo Georgie

"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."
The first paragraph from A Great and Glorious Game:  Baseball
Writings of
A. Bartlett Giamatti.

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

Eleuthera, Bahamas.


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.
Penny's Place
 

Of all of my hobbies, my favorite is amateur radio. My wife Penny is also an Amateur Radio operator which makes it all that much more interesting. I've been a licensed operator since 1976. For those of you who would like to see a little of this fascinating way of communicating, you can click on The American Radio Relay League. It is the largest organization of radio operators in the world, located In Newington, Connecticut.
