....amidst the fracas between Chewbacca and myself, an interesting little fact.

Chewbacca lives in Boston

I live in New York.


GO THE YANKEES!!! (Curse of the Bambino anyone??)

Would that have anything to do with it? Naah. Of course not.... right?

Here Wookie Wookie Wookie! hehe.

Yes tension between beantown and the big apple have been at all time high lately, perhaps we were both channeling some of that energy in our discourse. Lets just put it behind us okay?

I, for one, am going to try to be more aware of my tone and choice of words in "serious" discussion and be mindful of the topic at hand before I post. IW is the freindliest place on the net, for both Yankee and Red Sox fans , and I don't want to diminish that at all.

I won't particpate in the Yankees suck mantra, I still puzzle over the fact it gets chanted at concerts as well as other events that have nothing to do with baseball.

Though I'm not a very big baseball fan, The Red Sox have grown on me being a transplant to the Boston area some 5 years ago. I love going to Fenway to watch games and I am saddened along with just about everyone else around here that they didn't go all the way.

I had to give up tickets to the game where they clinched the wildcard, because of a family emergency, but I did have the honor of passing them along to a lifetime Red Sox fan who is in his 70's. That made the season for me in and of itself, though a penant and championship would have been the icing on the cake. There is always next year.
