Oh my God. We sat three rows from the very top but oh man what an awsome game! Go Astros!

I hope we kick some Cardinal ass!

Average Jose, that was a great game. Orikal, Pwarre20, and myself went riding, and we stopped over at the park. The hall was full of the standing room only people, so no good view of the game. A friend went to the Texans game, and left after the Reliant Stadium turned the TV's in the concourse off. Yesterday was really good to me, had a good ride, Astros won, and my brother was released from the hospital.

Funny story... Right after Burke rounded the bases, my wife got a phone call. She answered and then said " yeah, it was a great game. Who is this?". She then said " Sorry Josh, you got the wrong number, but yeah still it was an awesome game!"

That's two games for the price of one. :) Too bad management couldn't collect two games' worth of concession income.

I bet the 11 remaining innings were hard for most people lmao.

I saw somebody posting something about the sidewall of their tire exploding randomly- and I thought, how weird that must be to have it just explode, and for some reason the next thing that came to my mind of things that exploded randomly was that. And it tickled my fancy. *shrugs* It will probably be there till I find something else to fill my sig with.

This is Braves territory around here. There are a lot of bleary-eyed depressed Braves fans around the office today. The boss, however, is a major Yankees fan. We will have to wait to see what kind of mood he is in tomorrow.

Unfortunately I didn't watch the game. Good read in the paper though. I saw the headline on ESPN, saw his name and realized Burke's mom was my third grade teacher.

I just talked to my supervisor, he went to the Texans game. He said that the loudest cheering during the game was when they showed Berkman's homerun on the big screen.

Is it wrong to be tired already of hearing the bee buzzing in between songs on the radio?
