Ah yes, the lovely Miss Sylvia Wadva... Venus herself fails to compare. My mornings with Miss Wadva are the best. I'm smitten with love. Those chapped lips call for me. New York is going to be rockin' for the next two weeks. Mets vs Yankees. I can't explain the buzz that's going on around here. Earlier this year Roger Clemmens plunked Mike Piazza in the helmet with a fastball. Since that day the rivalry has been as bitter as I can remember. I believe Joe Torre is going to set up the pitching so that Clemens doesn't have to pitch at the Mets' Shea Stadium. I'm not sure he'd survive the trip if he did. I think Clemens is more hated than Atlanta's John Rocker at this point. I wonder who the Boston fans hate more. The Yankees for dominating the Redsox over the many years... or the Mets because of their come from behind win on 1986 when Buckner allowed that simple ground ball go through his legs... The last subway series was in 1956 I believe. The Yankees vs Brooklyn Dodgers, I think. The Oakland/San Fransisco series was the one with the massive earthquake, wasn't it? I remember Al Michaels was the telling the world what had just happened. He did an excellent job of reporting, because he was very familiar with the area. Vivid memories of that day... Was that in 92? I hope this series goes 7 games and the Yankees squeak out a come-from-behind win in the 9th inning. -Clappy P.S. I was so wide awake after last night's homerun that I tried to watch the replay of the debate to get myself to fall asleep. I watched almost the entire borefest... I'm still on the fence but now I'm beginning to lean a little in Gore's favor. Somebody talk me down... I've begun to to think Gore would be a better representative of this country. I'm not sure Bush would be smart enough to get his policies passed. No finesse... Not the brightest bulb in the batch. Has trouble forming words. How is he going to be able to think on his feet? Gore doesn't thrill me, but some how I think he would get more respect from the foreign leaders of the world. I really don't know which way I'm going to vote yet. Still can't imagine this is the best we have going...
