Before I leave for the weekend . . .

A few updates to pass along . . .

First off, our littlest man had his first real giggle yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't there to witness it but Karlene certainly go to experience it in all it's toothless-grin glory. I did get to hear him giggle later on last night and I have to say I don't know if there's a better sound in the world than hearing your child laugh for the first time. I look forward to many more belly laughs with my little man in the years to come.

Tiigers/Cardinals in the World Series. First of all, huh? Tigers/Cardinals? If anyone predicted that they should be crowned as "Genius of the World". I was really hoping to see the Mets make it through but you've certainly got to give the Red Birds credit. They were the worst team going into the playoffs by far but have turned it around in a big way.

Who are the people loving this World Series the most? All free-agent-to-be pitchers in the baseball. Specifically, I would think, Barry Zito. The Tiger's and the Cards have proven once again that pitching wins in the post-season. The Yanks and Mets had two of the best offensive lineups in baseball but mediocre (at best) pitching and that is why they're cleaning out their lockers and missing out on the chance to play on the worlds greatest stage.

BTW, if you didn't see the catch by Mets leftfielder Endy Chavez in the sixth inning of last night's game go to MLB.com and check it out. It's not quite as good as Gary Matthews Jr.'s from the regular season but, as far as big time catches at big time moments, it's probably one of the best in the history of the great game.
