Yikes ... that seems even harder to get into than the classical music world. Glad I left my math major in the dust all those years ago to focus on music!

'Don't Stop Believing' was the 2005 White Sox's 'theme song' throughout the season. They even had Journey (or maybe just Steve Perry?) perform it at their post WS Champ rally downtown. (Sorry for mentioning the 'evil ones' on a very nice Twins thread. Just throwing out a tidbit.)

It WAS a lifetime ago!

It's a genius lost, for sure.

Okay ... late to the party as usual ... just ordered and downloaded it ... didn't order it last year ... wow! Will enjoy reading this when work lets up! Tomorrow.

It is much faster. Given that, I'll deal with the other.

yeah, I noticed that, too ... I miss the 'top of the page' button.

I'm not so into this one and don't really care who wins. But as an aside, some of my colleagues across the country put this little montage together. Too bad Chicago baseball teams are as they are as the Chicago Symphony brass section would blow both of these groups away.

When AJ joined the White Sox in '05 I remember telling the guys I worked with (Sox fans) that he would be the difference maker, the 'spark' that will put them over the top. What a prediction that was. Anyway, that said, despite the 'energy' and 'fight' he could bring, he's not what we need as far as baseball goes. Pass.

Well you could just say the actual word. I think the manner in which you were using it it's not like you were being lewd. So to practice ... say it with me now ... vagina.

lol ,,, Little Sisters of the Poor?

For me I'd bring him back with no guarantees to make the team. Let him try with a team he gave a lot to. I have serious doubts given his injuries he can make the team, let alone pitch effectively over a season. But, who knows? For me it's one of those ... bring him home and give him a shot. Didn't we do that for ... Jacque Jones? .... a few years ago? Older vet, former Twin, just trying one last time?

You were very close. Lose the 'g.' Vajayjay.

Thanks for the trip ... you and I are of the same vintage. These memories are mine as well. I hope you keep posting ...

Priceless!

I was living in Chicago by that time. So maybe all the pressure to become a White Sox fan by friends here would have worked. Oh, who am I kidding, no ****ing way. Don't know what I would have done.

Go Blackhawks!

A friend of mine's went from $550/mo to $371/mo.

This has my vote. Every time it comes up on my playlist I just want to dance down the street, or around the room, or down the aisles of the store ... wherever I am. And I don't dance. At least not what anyone else would call dancing. MARK RONSON - GOD PUT A SMILE UPON YOUR FACE - YouTube It really grooves.

In theory ... but a lot of people today operate on a 'save yourself' mode ... they also believe anyone who needs help just isn't working hard enough.

You hit the nail on the head with your first sentence. While I appreciate the vocabulary lesson, these words are not being used in a civil manner, despite their meanings, and we have received complaints to that regard. So, I am asking once again, to please refrain from such usage to keep the discussions on target.

I had no idea you were that old! And yeah ... 81 and 82 (although 82 had a lot of exciting young guys, it still did not rock my world).

Everyone ... please let's leave out the labels 'apologists' and 'haters' in our discussions. There are always two sides to every issue and people have the right to disagree, but stop with the labels.

ooou ... I hope Morneau makes 'em pay.

Yeah, ugh, Willi's avatar hurts my eyes. Hmm ... I do have special powers now .. I could do something about it ... but won't.
