As much as Dan Shaughnessy of the Boston Globe can be annoying, a
little bit too clever and oh so smart, sometimes he comes up with a
classic. This is one of them speaking of David Ortiz's walk off home
run in the 10th inning.

"In one of the most electrifying moments in the history of a ballpark
that's almost older than household electricity..."

I love a good turn of phrase.

Take care.

Hell of an exciting game. When he hit the home run just about every
boat here in the marina were heard, horns blaring.

I'll bet. We had a house full of kids (well, I say kids, they weren't
kids - most of them were Doctors, a few med school students with a
sprinkling of Marines) and I thought the house was going to come off
it's foundation when he hit it.

They all want to visit when there's a big game on - I wonder if it's
the 57 inch HD TV in the den?

All the best,

Tom
