Patriots Day Today
Posted: April 20, 2009 by datechguy in baseball, local stuffTags: fyi, history, life is good, nostalgia
Here in Massachusetts today is the Patriots day holiday. When we remember the ordinary people who defeated the greatest infantry in the world and started on the path to the creation of this great nation.
For events we have the Boston Marathon, An early 11 a.m. Red Sox game and of course the re-enactments at Lexington and Concord.
I’ve actually never been as they are usually swamped and the parking is impossible but I think maybe next year or the year after I should go. It would be a shame to live a whole life around here and never see it in person.
With Maine we are the only states that celebrate the day.
Life is good but busy

Sorry about the lack of posting today, but as Glenn would say I’ve been busy having a life, and a lot of good has been happening:
The oldest got his first car. (My 88 year old aunt flunked her eye test and gave it to him. Michael Graham will be cheering that she is off the road.)
He also got a Son’s of Italy scholarship, that will take care of books and the like.
The youngest has been doing well both in school and with his girl and I’m pleased to say some rather responsible decisions have been made and discussed by him.
A good prospect has come up that might mean employment next month.
And you know what, just sitting here at the computer and watching the wife in the next room. 21 years hasn’t made her any less cute.
What more could a guy ask from life than all that?
In the end political moves can annoy me how can they make things bad when I’ve got all that going for me?
And that doesn’t even count the friends. Some of them are very far left, but as far as I’m concerned they are all right with me. I wouldn’t trade them for a two term Palin presidency!
Remembering 2004 Schilling worth many Pounds…

As we see opening day break on a bleak winter we remember that wonderful year of 2004.
On this day Baseball Musings saw strong outings from both Schilling and the Bullpen as a good sign for the Sox.
Meanwhile the only Redsox story at the Baseball Crank in April was the telling of his tale of meeting Ted Williams. But that’s something always worth remembering.
