First the soccer news, which includes Angela Hucles' 100th cap (in a career year for her) and
another win (over South Korea) for the USWNT. With two more games left in their post-Olympic
Tour, it woulds like the team is pleasing Pia! The NESCAC Soccer Tournament is over for
another year. (Oh yeah, that's the New [.
Another Halloween has gone by with no trick or treaters on this hill (and now we have a hefty
basket of chocolate to work our way through). It's November and we're at four days and
counting. As the sun rises, for the last time in Daylight Saving mode, let's see what's going
on out there [...]
There's lots to be said for symmetry! Indeed, back in '80, the first time the Phillies won it
all, yours truly was about to turn 28 ... and now here we are 28 years later! Yeah,
symmetry! :) On a chilly night in Philly, they did it again! That training Scene from
Rocky 1 still [...]
First off, get well wishes to HollyCornblog who is recovering from a bad ankle sprain sustained in

here's an article from Scripps News Service about the newly-configured [.
To my mind, this was one of the finest moments in quite a collection of 'em over the past couple of
days. Bill came through last night, too. The historic milestone that Obama's nomination
represents is both cause for celebration and cause for sadness ... because in 2008 we should be
well beyond celebrating this [.
I, for one, can't wait for tonight's debate and Obama's response when McCain goes after him.
How Big Mac will work his fringe issues into the format should be interesting to see. The GOP
has been thrusting Ayers and Acorn at us for too long to let this last debate pass by without
trying [...]
Guess we missed out on the basil this year! This morning there's serious frost
everywhere. Stern frost. Dour frost. A layer of it whitens the windows and
powders the ground. The nasturtiums still look miraculously green, but the zinnias and cosmos
are brown. November brown. This frost will disappear as the sun rises and warms [.
