What should it take to make any player realize that it's time to retire??? Does someone just need to hit him upside the head with a 95mph fastball??

This is part of why I go on the Angels Fan Cruise every year.. I get to spend a weekend talking Angels Baseball with a bunch of people that miss baseball as much as I do..

If anyone is interested in FLYING to Phoenix, Southwest is doing a special now for $69 each way from either LAX or SNA.. And don't forget, Southwest does NOT charge for luggage!!!!!!!!!

Yes, Tank, he was..

Just because I personally KNOW Carlos, I will tell you that he retired from baseball 2 weeks ago. He's going back to college to finish his degree and spend time with his daughter. I'm not getting into the pot conversation.

Whatever holiday custom you keep this time of year: May your Dad and Brother-in-Law both lay off political evangelizing for the day May you have purchased the right size of batteries May your Great Aunt Joan realize that nobody likes that gawddamn fruit salad and not bring it this time May your Mom not insist on saving all the wrapping paper May all the assembly instructions actually make sense, may all the parts be in the box, and may you have the right wrench and screwdriver May your dog tolerate the table scraps your niece slipped him and not have a lower intestinal disaster in the living room May the relatives that are determined to cause a row be delayed at an airport several hundred miles away until late tomorrow afternoon May the fruitcake actually have enough rum in it to taste good May your pumpkin pie be done in the middle May the oven element wait until tomorrow to burn out May all your relatives and other guests realize that giving professional advice is work for you and that it's a gawddamn holiday May the police and fire departments not have any official reason to visit your house And may everyone have a safe and happy New Year

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I got married in Vegas with a wedding that was arranged through the LV tourist bureau. That was in 97, but it only cost us $150 and included a limo to the courthouse to get the license and a ride back to the hotel after it was finished. Personally, think about a cruise for a honeymoon!!! You unpack ONCE, and get to see all kinds of things. It can cost just about $100 per person per day (MOSTLY LESS!!) and that includes your room and all the food you can eat!!!

Yep.. they are open all 3 days. I THINK they open at 9am,. but will check when I go into work on Thursday to make sure..

I don't have one, as I don't have a kid, but they are discounting everything with Trumbo's name on it at the team store..

My Black Friday consisted of standing in line at the House of Blues in Anaheim waiting in line for concert tickets in the pouring rain. THEN I went to the team store for "RED Friday" and found absolutely NOTHING I wanted even at 50% off..

In case anyone is planning, like I am... Southwest is running a deal, and flights are $69 each way, either LAX or OC to Phoenix.. My round trip was $127..

Late to the party... but damn, do some of these bring back memories. I was born in Detroit, so I'll have to explain one of these.. -Having to be inside when the streetlights came on -Seeing Star Wars while on vacation in Florida when I was 13 -Being at the RECORDING of "Live Bullet" by Bob Seger at Cobo Hall -having a visit by the "swimmobile". This is a Detroit thing.. it was a portable pool, longer than a 18wheeler, that they would cart to the poorer neighborhoods in the summer. It would be filled by hoses attached to fire hydrants. It would stay in the neighborhood from like 9am until the streetlights went on... For most of us, this was the ONLY type of pool we ever saw.. -penny candy, anyone? -Gas at 29 cents a gallon?? -50 cent Saturday matinees at the movie theatre that I could WALK to from my house.. -the ORIGINAL release of "Rocky Horror Picture Show" -Having to buy any type of concert ticket at the actual venue--no ticketmaster when I was young. By the time I got to high school, we had one of the first versions of what would end up as ticketmaster-- CTC-- Convenient ticket Company. -Bob-Lo Island -- this is also very much just Detroit. This was our version of Knotts or Disneyland. It was on an island, and you had to take one of their "boats" to get there. It was an hour and a half ride from the downtown Detroit dock to the park, and the boat was a "riverboat with a paddlewheel" that was part of the attraction. We caused all kinds of trouble on the way there, but not one of us was awake on the way back, ever..

In case anyone cares, the Arkansas Travelers need to win ONE more to win the Texas League. They won last night 4-1. The game is on the web with gameday at 5pm our time, also available on TuneIn and IHeartRadio on Sports Animal 920.

Go figure. I went to this last year. It was a FANTASTIC time!! Actually got to bowl with Bobby Wilson. CJ spent a lot of time taking pictures and signing autographs for everyone, and he also does a raffle--some of the raffle prizes are better than you can even imagine!!! There was a gold necklace there. It included a beautiiful chain, and it was this awesome left handed baseball glove with a diamond for the baseball. Had to be AT LEAST a karat. and tickets were only $1 each, if I remember correctly.

Cleary makes it to first on a fielding error, and ends up scoring. Travs 4, Tulsa 1 End 3 Lineout, strikeout, flyout, middle 4, still 4-1

groundout, flyout, popup in the top of the 3rd.. still 4-0 Travs..

popout and 2 K's for Roth in the 2nd...

popout, strikeout, linout in the top of the 2nd for the Travs..

Roth gave up ONE hit in the bottom of the first, but that's all.. End 1, still Travs 4, Tulsa 0

3 run homer for CJ Cron followed by a HR by Widlansky in the top of the 1st in Tulsa.... 4-0 Travs, going in the bottom of the inning. Mike Roth is pitching for the Travs tonight..

Add me +1.. bringing a friend with me who's new to the area. I'll grab some buns, and if someone thinks of anything else I can bring, let me know, as I will stop at the store on my way to the stadium..

LOL.. I always see him with props, but he moves lights and stuff, too. I'll ask him and let you know.

Another friend of mine is also working on the mentalist. His name is Mark Rojas.. Looks like he belongs in the 80's, with long black hair, and also works as a roadie with my hubby..

Maybe just me and hubby, but as much as I'm a scifi/fantasy lover, he and I watched it, and neither of us was impressed to want to watch another episode. Thought the cow cut in half when the dome came down was pretty cool, though, I don't think I would put my hand INSIDE it..
