Players go to bat for Manuels Style
This season wasn't won or lost based on one game...it was lost based on the Sox not executing and doing the little things.

I'd say politically the North is more liberal mainly because of Berkley/San Fran. I really wouldn't call it much of a huge difference other then the fact when you go up north their is tons of open space while in the SoCal area, as long as your near the coastal areas you don't ever hit any open space. I never have heard of them splitting though. Splitting up is new to me. I will also agree with the differneces here in the bay area there are more liberals, but I think that has to do with schools like Cal-berkeley. Heck when the Iraq was began the mayor organized a peace rally. Never heard anything like that in SOCAL. There is open space in SOCAL. Joshua Tree and BigBear And all the desert on the way to Arizona/Vegas. Joshua Tree is great...love going their and going rockclimbing.

and there ain't nothing you can do to stop them. I remember when I was cooking boiling water and spilled the entire freakign thing on myself. Holy s*** did that hurt. Don't even remember how I did it. Was paying attention to something else while walking and hit my dog and the boiling water went all over me. Burns on my chest for like a week. Sunburn sucks too. When you got Iowa in you like I do...all you do is burn and get red and boy does it suck

My friend did that...hell he even dared one of my buddies to light something else on fire. I didn't have the balls to do either. I just saw myself keeping it on too long and me getting burned. I know getting burned isn't fun...

Right now my friends mom is dying from cancer. They told her she was going to die four-five years ago (He would of been about your age at that time). Since then she's stayed fine but about a month ago my friend was back down from school because his mom had got sick. Now he is relegated to going to her house where she is laying in a bed all day and that just saddens me. I know if I were in that situation it would be so incredibly hard. She just lays their and watches tv until she will eventually pass away peacefully. Worse of all my friend just sits and watches knowing their is nothing he can do to help. I think that has to be incredibly hard. I wish you and every other child would never have to go through that process and I wish no parent would ever have to deal with their child dying. Always remember your mom as you will always carry a part of her with you.

LMAO, definately glad I passed over reading that too. If the anarchist cook book is what I am thinking of, then the only thing I took away from it, was filling a tennis ball with match-ends and throwing it. I haven't tried it but it sounds intriguing. I think thats the one your thinking off. I remember reading it with my buddies and we'd test blowing s*** up. We always thought it was pretty fun. Never did anything harmful.. We used to dunk a tennis ball in gasoline, light it on fire, and then play handball with it. It was way fun..very safe too as long as you are away from dry brush.

Probably gives kids self-esteem issues when they can't find him... I always had trouble finding him on the last page where all the waldos were and you had to find the one with the missing shoe or something.

The official "fuck you" E-LO thread
I'll pass on Eckstein. Not a high OBP guy and I think he was a fluke. He'll be a bench player in the majors. I wouldn't want him as my starting shortstop.

In regards to California splitting up the only thing I can think of is that he means the democrats and the republicans at a stand still in a sense. Basically if Bustamante wins the state will never be conservative again and imo it will go to hell with all the stupid taxes and laws. I'm not a big fan of taxes and regulations unless they really help. So many things aren't needed and their are so many duplicate forms and things that you have to fill out to get the exact same thing done. Its a royal pain in the neck.
