Job 37-42.
Regarding life and this week's weather, last weekend at this time there were 300 people walking this earth, probably having a good weekend, knowing not the fate that awaited them, that their time was about spent.

Job 33-36.
Last night's episode of "The Office" was very good. Sorry to see Michael Scott fly away. It won't ever be the same, but the show can still be good as long as the others don't follow his lead.
And that Oscar-Scarecrow thing was one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. At least on TV.

Job 21-24.
This Cardinals team seemed so intriguing back in February. Too bad Wainwright got hurt, they could really have been a contender considering how well they've played so far without him.

Job 17-20.
Taking 2 of 3 from the Reds was a must, but it should have been 3 of 3. If it weren't for LaRussa's genius management of the 2nd game, it probably would have been. Franklin appears to be done, and the Cardinals should have at least 16 wins.

I have to confess I'm looking forward to Easter this year for more than the religious meaning. I've been off beef since Ash Wednesday and am ready to dig in tomorrow.

Esther 6-10.
The theme song to Tennessee Tuxedo is permanently etched in my brain. Last year I got the DVD which contains many of the episodes from season 1, and probably reinforced this until my end comes.
So, after intense study, I have become convinced that the lyrics of the song by Phil Collins, "Sussudio", was taken from the opening of this theme song..."see, see, see, Tennessee Tuxedo."
"Su-su-su-dio"...the su su su part is obviously a nod to "see, see, see" in the Tennessee Tuxedo theme.
Agree?

Nehemiah 10-13.
Four blown saves? It's April 18th FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Franklin would be out if anyone but LaRussa were managing.
Problem is there is no one to step up, is there? Unless you like the idea of a bullpen by committee.
Which right now I do.

Chris Duncan's rise and fall was about as fast as anyone's I've ever seen. He had big power before he got hurt and his career is probably now over. At least he appears to have something to fall back on now.

Nehemiah 2-5.
During this Cardinals road trip, a few games have started after 10 p.m., which means they are starting after 8 p.m. on the West coast. Why would they start a baseball game that late?
I'm going to have to complain more often about not scoring any runs, because they sure responded to my complaint this past week.
And how about those Indians?

One thing I have never understood is the size of coloring books. The pictures inside take a long time to color and the crayons subsequently disappear too quickly. So why make them so big?
Well, I've just recently seen a much smaller tablet form of coloring book that is much more conducive to completing the picture with little crayon wastage. How long have these been around?

Another sports milestone this year. Today is the 25th anniversary of the great final round Masters comeback by Jack Nicklaus. He was 46 years old at the time. Which makes me feel old, because I am now older than he was at the time of this comeback.
