…because of the asthma combined with pneumonia my oldest is sleeping on the den couch. MSNBC is channel 53 in these parts. Under the Comcast plan it is a free channel if you have a cable box, as I have only one I can’t put on the show without waking him. Since he’s sick I’m letting him sleep so until he is up Morning Joe blogging is either delayed or on hold.

Yes I could rent an extra cable box for only a few dollars a month, and I could get a dvr box for only a few dollars a month, and I could get a cell plan for a few dollars a months etc etc etc. When you add up all those few dollars a month they add up to more than a few dollars when I’m not working and even when I am.

I’d just as soon have the money to pay the bills in thin times and to use for things I really want in thick ones.

WBC Korea rules!

I fell asleep in the 3rd inning but was up long enough to see Korea’s first two innings and the pummeling that Hugo’s boys took to start the game. It was 7-1 when I hit the sack and Korea ended up winning 10-2.

Korea now goes to face the winner of tonight’s Japan/USA semi final.

From everything I’ve seen in this tournament Japan should win this game, they have had timely hitting and great pitching and the only team that has given them any trouble has been their arch rival Korea. The US on the other hand has lost to Venezuela twice and Puerto Rico by mercy. There is one ace in the hole for the US team.

Japan is starting Daisuke Matsuzaka for the game against the US. He has now pitched two seasons in the majors for the Red Sox helping us to our second World series title in 4 years. The US team has seen this guy and that might be the edge necessary to win the day. Much better to start a pitcher that hasn’t been seen to slow the team down.

Anyway If I have to make a prediction I’d say it will be an all Asian final.
