| My wife went to a game last week and noticed this in one of the areas the players park their cars. I wonder if Trot upgraded.  “The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money.” - Alexis de Tocqueville Eric the Red |

| Hey kids, it seems that I have four Sox tickets but only three people that want to go (myself included). Between the current situation in the standings and the fact that the Pats season opener is Sunday afternoon, demand has dropped off in a big way. Gee, go figure. So I've got a spare ticket if anyone's interested. Sunday, 2:05pm, vs the Royals. Seat is in Box 94 (rightfield side, near the Pesky Pole), $45. It's time for me to hit the road, but I'll be back online later tonight, drop me a PM or an email if you're interested... -Ricardo  "2 minutes by yourself and...you feel shame, you know...and then you get free" |

| Shnikeys, not much market for Sox tickets these days! Surprising given that every tenth person thru the gate gets to join the Sox pitching staff... -Ricardo "2 minutes by yourself and...you feel shame, you know...and then you get free" |

| Ricardo got a question, is Casino Royale (the new one) a remake of another Casino Royale or was Casino Royale (the old one) the Woody Allen s****? I asked Louis but he didn't know, I then said I'll ask Ricardo he'll know.  "Buy you a soda after the game?" |

| The new Casino Royale is the first "official" James Bond movie based on the book. The Casino Royale which was made in '67 (with Peter Sellers, Woody Allen, David Niven, etc.) was a parody, it was able to be made because for various contractural reasons EON productions (the people who make Bond movies) didn't control the rights to it (it was the only Ian Fleming story EON didn't own). In 1999, they finally acquired it, so now they're finally making an "official" version... Yes, I do know too much about Bond. -Ricardo "2 minutes by yourself and...you feel shame, you know...and then you get free" |

| So what do you think of the new Bond..? Talking of movies, we just watched Inside Man (from the $1-a-night Redbox vending machine). It's good - I'd recommend it. Haven't been to the movies in ages, so forgive me if it's really old news...  Religion is like a huge dog. If it's yours it's very friendly and comforting, but it scares the heck out of everyone else. |

| I'm interested. They're saying that they want to scale things back a bit, not be so over the top with invisible cars and massive death rays and all that jazz, something a bit more hard-edged and quasi-realistic. That would be fine with me. Something less like Moonraker and Die Another Day and more like From Russia With Love or For Your Eyes Only would be okay with me... -Ricardo "2 minutes by yourself and...you feel shame, you know...and then you get free" |

| Gadget (the name of one of my late cats!) Gav, We rarely go to the movies, either! We wait till it comes out on DVD so we are as backwards as you are... It's cheaper than at the movies & food is just downstairs. |

| Dude, where is my MINI? NEW YORK (AP) - Several Brooklyn residents woke up to find their street empty -- because someone had posted a "No Parking" sign and police had towed their rides. The sign, which bans parking on a street from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, mysteriously appeared Monday or Tuesday, residents said, and then police started ticketing and towing cars parked there. But the Department of Transportation says there aren't any parking restrictions in the area and it doesn't know who posted the placard, which looks official. Resident David Bourgeois said he had to pay $205 to retrieve his Mini Cooper, with a $60 ticket on the windshield, from a police pound Wednesday after it was hauled away. "It's just outrageous," he told the Daily News for Friday editions. The DOT said it would try to dismiss the ticket -- and take down the No Parking sign. Copyright 2006 The Associated Press.

| More like the towing company. They're the ones making out in the end. Funny, I never knew the Bonds were based on actual books. Didn't know there was actual writing involved--just as much thin plot, hot babes, big explosions, and unrealistic gadgets as they could string together. Of course that is a recipie for fun and I have gone to each one. But it has been much longer than usual! At one point I thought they came out with one every two years, and every other one was good. But they've broken that, and also have some blonde guy too. I just want to see the new Aston. |
