Are you like me, walking around like a zombie, with your head in a fog, waiting for Game Six of the World Series to begin? Here’s something, in case you need a laugh to settle your nerves, before tonight’s game…

No, The Name Of It Is Not “I Got Your Number”

Haven’t thought about this song in about a thousand years…

Modern Family

I’ve seen the new ABC show “Modern Family” three times now. I saw the one with the bike and the hot neighbor. I’ve seen the one Shelley Long. And, this week, I caught the one where Gloria was called a coal digger.

While watching it this week, I said to my wife “This is just like ‘Arrested Development.’”

And, doing a quick google on it today, I see I’m not alone with that feeling:

If you haven’t checked out the show, you may want to…soon. It’s just off-beat and funny enough that it’s a sure bet to get the hook way too soon….like “Arrested Development” did…

Hey, it could have been worse…it could have been Kate Hudson this month…

Fringe

I enjoy watching the show Fringe on FOX. I say “enjoy” because I enjoy it – but, I wouldn’t say that I’m addicted to it, the way I was with “Prison Break.” In any event, the thing that I like most about the show is the character of Agent Olivia Dunham. I love the real-feel to her character. And, there’s a sense of strength that resonates in actress Anna Torv’s portrayal of Dunham that I find very admirable. But, it wasn’t until I saw her on the Emmys that I knew she was Australian. Now, that’s acting skill – since there is no trace of an accent in Dunham, etc., and she sure passes, in character, as being American. (Sort of like Hugh Laurie in “House” – hiding his British accident.)

Where this show goes, from here, I dunno…but, chalk me up as a fan of Anna Torv, from now, for sure…

No Yanks Game Till Friday? No Big Deal…

…we can play our own game until then.

This is a little time-killing game that I came up with back in 2002. (See this and this for more on what was done back at that time.) Here’s how it works…

This is a fictional baseball game. When you leave a comment to this entry, you must:

- – state the inning and score at the moment (based on the previous comment)
- – give the runners on base and the outs (also based on the previous comment)
- – provide what your batter will do
- – and, if it’s the end of the 1/2 inning, give the score and the inning at the close of the inning.

I’ll do the first two batters to give an example.

Play Ball!

Not Covering It All?

Man, I cannot believe that they missed this one when “covering” all this? Shame.

23 Hours Till The Next Yankees Game…?

Well, this should get you through the next 15 minutes…

Biggest Loser Season 8

Jillian’s reaction after Tracey’s weigh-in was priceless. But, if you saw it, you already know that. And, if you didn’t, then you have no idea what this is about…
