I just knew from Dick Cheney's lousy throwing out of the first ball (It didn't even make it to the plate...and he was standing WAY out in front of the mound.) that the Nationals' home opener was going to be a bust. They lost 7-1 to the Mets in a real snoozer. Things got interesting in the final inning with the bases loaded. Ryan Zimmerman came up to bat for the Nationals, but there were already two outs. He added another and the game was over. At least Placido Domingo sounded pretty good on the National Anthem. And the weather was great.

It's nice to get back to writing some short fiction. I've got a story that needs another three or four days before it's ready to send out.

Yay Mets!
Yeah.....I can tell you that Pedro received an especially warm welcome during the pre-game intros.
On a happier note (I am repressing my Hot Sports Opinions about the debacle that is becoming the Nationals), what did you think about Midnighters #2?
John, I liked Midnighters 2 quite a lot, much more than the first installment. I'm looking for 3 at the library.
