... just not very carefully.
Avid readers of this blog (with above-average recall) may recall this post where I jokingly mentioned that I could listen in fascination to Robert Siegel reading a phonebook.
Well what did I hear on Morning Edition this AM on the drive in but a story about british phone books where they started reading off old phonebook listings.
Unfortunately they erred by having Steve Inskeep reading it, not Robert Siegel. If that's any indicator of the brainpower at work in today's NPR, it's very sad indeed.
And yes, I know I haven't posted in a few days. Work has been absolutely killer (very long hours).
I'll just end by saying METS CLINCHED THEIR DIVISION BAY-BEE!
Let's Go Mets!

I've always been a Mets fan. I ALSO rooted for the Red Sox when I was in Boston (when they weren't playing the Mets), but the one doesn't preclude the other.
Remember Bro, in the end, I hear the name "Bill Buckner" and smile, and that should be all anyone needs to know to figure out where my first loyalty lies ;)
The Sox still take precedence over the Tigers even after moving out here though.
And when I do follow the Tigers playing right now (which isn't much), I'm still rooting against the Yank-Me's, so it's all good!
