Can't get that damn Judy in Disguise song out of my head now thanks to Mitlen.  I think I was 8 when it first came out and for years thought it was "Judy in the Skies".

I know man.    It was on one of the music channels (FiOS) last week and it keeps poppin' in my mind.    I was DJ'ing when it came out.    College I think  ...   :old:

538 has the Nats as a 17% chance to win the world series ahead of the Dodgers at 16%--Indians are the favorite at 26%.  I clicked on the link to those odds at the end of a 538 article that said no one should get too excited about either the Indians or Dodgers' streaks?? Seems like they are contradicting themselves.

We need to get rid of Van Winkle Jr. He's worthless.

I wonder what the Dodger fan forum looks like. What do you guys think would happen here if the Nats lost 11 in a row? Ritual suicide?

Ah, read off these games, starting in late July, 1959. Here is a fine game that Camilo Pascual pitched, a 7 - 0 shutout of the KC A's. Bob Allison hit his 24th home run, and the Nats were at 43 wins and 46 losses. Watch what happens next and next and onward. Yes, the 1959 Senators broke a major league record.

Dodger fans must know that you gotta have hope. Mustn't sit around and mope.

The other day in the hospital, my grand nephew wouldn't go to sleep   ...  he was in for some problems.   No one could put him to sleep.    I picked him up and sang "Pony Boy" to him.     Poof.   Out like a denki light.    It's been a "Pony boy" week.    :P

It's a traditional lullaby that folks (including Bruce among others) have done.     I remember my Grandfather singin' it to me.      I usually cross my legs and put the grand nephew on my foot (like riding a pony) but since he was hooked up to tubes, I just put him on my chest and rocked in front of the window.     Boom  ....  out.    I hope it wasn't my singin'.     :)

Good move.    Man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.    You may get home early enough to listen to FP.    :P

You missed Michael A diving for a liner and missing, as it rolls to the fence.  Fortunately the runner was lollygagging and Lind backed him up so it was only a double, but I was having flashbacks.

Saw the score and figured they played the "b" team tonight. Ugh.
