Big series for the Phillies

Sports

It all begins today the race for the N.L. East crown. The Phillies open up a 3 game series with the mighty Mets at 1 today. The Braves lost a tough game last night to the Rockies so now the Phillies are in first place with 3 wins and 4 losses;) Dale Earnhardt Jr. finished in 12th place on Sunday and remains in the top 5 in points. The Flyers start their playoff run on Friday night against the Capitols. They have a very hot goalie right now and that's how you win Stanley Cups.

News/Politics

Well Obama has opened up his lead on Hillary to 7% now. So it's looking like it will be Obama vs. McCain for the Presidency. Its going to be very interesting to see who each of them picks as their running mates. If the election were held today Obama would win by 1%.

Weather

It's been a little chilly around here the past couple of days, it was 76 in Pittsburgh yesterday. It will take a couple of days to get here but it should be in the upper 70's by Thursday. I still have not received my thermometer yet but it should arrive today.

Family

Cecil,Pops will be staying with us for a while starting next week. We can't wait for that, will now have reality tv buddy;) The only problem being we are having a hard time keeping up with Dancing With The Stars and American Idol due to Big Brother and Biggest Loser. Oh well I guess if that's our toughest choice that's a good thing:0)

I always learn from your posts, that's awesome! Although I dont like the news of Obama vs McCain, I'm still holding out hope.
Pops said he was excited he could go to hot wings next Monday night. That will be cool for you guys!
