What has happened to our educational system? Are we really reduced to explaining Kundalini to these young folks?

What, are they off studying science and engineering or something? Not.

Was that thumbs down on my comment about 1992 from Craig?

Painful night for a power surge to blow out my satellite, which took 90 minutes to clear. By then the A’s had come form 2-1 down to win 3-2. I missed all the fun. Aargh.

I had a very relaxed Canada Day. Only drank one glass of wine. I wish you a fun filled July 4th.

Does this mean we have to reopen the Strait of Hormuz again?

That was a very moving observation, Dontrelle.

How much are willing to bet that Lincecum is playing hurt? It’s sad to see a pitcher who as good as we was, just drop like a rock like that.

I was hoping you’d still be hungover from Canada day.

I remember the 1992 baseball season quite well. The Jays put an end to the Braves season.

I was alive in 1992, and recall the Pirates season being ended by another aging Brave in need of a leg transplant.

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. “Mankind.” That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: “We will not go quietly into the night!” We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

Re Dodgers 3, Reds 1 – it’s always great to see that scummy thug Cueto lose a game, especially in an embarrassing fashion. Good on Da Bums for making Tony LaRussa look right for leaving the little criminal off the Allstar team.

I’ve already commented on last night’s Feesh debacle in the thread devoted to it a few parsecs back, so I won’t belabor the excruciating details therefrom except to compare it with Troy, Masada, Aleppo during the Third Crusade, Shimabara Castle or maybe the Hindenburg. Of course, disasters are what you make of them. Slobbering Ozzie overpressurized his kindalini (in late medieval Hindu metaphysics, that’s an ectoplasmic trouser snake) and blew all the petals off Chakra Sahasrara last night after the game. He cursed out the local spawrts meedia for persecuting Heath Bell, while managing – in the finest tradition of Spenserian allegory, assuming you’ve studied Spenser in Espanglish – to curse out his own team for their excremental fielding and fecal middle relief work. It was sewerpipe diction Ozzie at his most piquant, and may have set a new record for longest expressions of oral anality enunciated without inhaling. Shortly thereafter, the Feesh released the following public relations bulletin:

Moms! Be sure to bring your kids to family day at Macondo Banana Massacre Field next week! Slobbering Ozzie will entertain them in his Shakes the Clown suit complete with silk polka dot blouse and big red rubber nose!
