Not that I have ties to either team, but watching the Angels/Sox games was quite the experience. You can't help but be moved by what happened tonight with the moments that the Angels took remembering Nick. Very nice to see the Angels get the win and start the healing process.

Does anyone know why Nick Faldo does not participate in The Masters? I don't believe his working for CBS prevents him from playing in it. Has he ever given a reason as to why he stopped playing in it?

Beautiful timing: I come home today and receive some mail. It's "The Rules of Golf" from the USGA. Enclosed with it is a membership offer: $15 for the year. I don't know how they found me, or why, but this weekend, I just may join the USGA.

For all Turbo Tax users, theyre like the devil--on the top they tell you, on an ongoing basis, your refund/payment

@Fawn Liebowitz: I think that running refund/owe tally may have steered me towards some questionable tax strategies (even though I'm mostly sure I haven't broken any tax codes).

@Peter Cavan: Same here. But for me, it was pretty easy. I don't own a house, and I'm single.

@meefer: Me too, but I paid a total of about $45 to Uncle Sam and Chief Illinitwit. Which I'm happy about - it's about right, and I didn't give anyone a no-interest loan on my money.

@DM: It actually isnt looking that way--we are finalizing our Cape plans--which we do every year--on Draft weekend

Rentals are way plentiful this year, and we have a couple free options too. If you are in the area, we still can plan a NorthEast Corridor PP for later on--

I'll be there in absentia--if you all twitter, post freely and often

@meefer: As long as the red text/bold font is using small numbers, it's cool.

@Tully Blanchard Enterprises: Actually, I don't think I've seen that movie. The other I remember hearing "realism!" things about, though, was Ronin. Which, though not much appreciated, was pretty tightly shot and solid.

All right everyone, I'm out for the night. Going to interact with live people for once.

@Fawn Liebowitz: I'm down with it. I'll just make sure not to wear my Mets gear when I'm there. I floated the idea to Sculptor about have a PP at a beer festival. I'm sure there's a few of those around in the country sometime this summer?

I was also talking to Metschick about setting up a PP. Yeah, new found freedom will open up the floodgates.

@DM: That's one possible explanation for such an abomination. The motorcycle chase from the Great Escape is better then half that list.

Though Mad Max is one that gets overlooked.

@MrRedDevil: It really amazes me that the first two Mad Max films aren't hailed as classics; they're certainly flawed, but they're epic.

I think if you put Steve McQueen on or in a motor vehicle, it needs to be under consideration.

By the way, the fire alarm has been silenced and we have movie sign! Tonight's feature is the original Mad Max, featuring Mel Gibson before he went all preachy and goofy.

While I am not worried about my night in, I am wondering why no one seems bothered by the fire alarm bell that's been ringing at the building next to mine for about 10 minutes now. Maybe I should check that out.

@Sculptor?!? I just met her!: The cops just showed up. There's no sign of a fire, and no one from that building is outside. But it's making a hell of a noise, and since my apartment windows are on the same side of the building, it's loud for me too.
