"...and lemme slam my car door on your hand."

Hey, Squadron Leader Sedford: when I use a word nobody else knows, let me know and I'll 'splain it. Like "'splain."

Have you noticed that Ravel's Rapsodie Espagnole, the first part, sounds a lot like The Rite of Spring, like the next to last movement? Me, neither.

This is how the Braves REALLY did, despite myself:

Furcal 1-3, standing triple, run
Giles 1-5, run, RBI
Drew 0-3, walked twice
Chipper 0-4, walk
Estrada 1-4, SF9, RBI
LaRoche 0-3, walk
Marrero struck out
Andruw 2-3, homer, only one strikeout
Chuckie Thomas 2-4
Wright sac bunted
Wise hit one to the warning track
Franco, uninspiringlylike, grounded out

Pitchin'
Wright gave 6 runs and 3 homers
Gryboski came on in the 5th, gave a run on 2 hits
Cruz absolutely NAILED Beltran, but not on purpose, just his control is THAT bad
Alfonseca went 1-2-3, which is half the number of fingers he has on his r. hand
Reitsma came on for the "save," gave a homer

Don't blame Clemens. He walked 6. We left twelve. TWELVE! Lifeboat No. 1 on the Titanic left with 12 people and it was a small boat! Here is who was left:

There, believe me?
