You know the Phyrst does seem to ring a bell.

love that place. only place you can get live music every night of the week. used to be the only place that would serve you on your 21st birthday though i think they did away with that. i shoulda joined that mug club so i'd have a better excuse to keep going back to visit, but alas

Was at Longwood Gardens this afternoon. Pretty awesome place. Hadn't been since I was a young lad. Reccend it for a date or just an afternoon with friends.

The Phryst new ownership can suck a dick.

so sorry phat. i can't imagine what the parents are going through. i hope everything goes as well as it possibly can

having chicken for dinner tonight

what happens after you take half of someone's brain?

partial paralysis on one side of your body, some loss in motor function, and mild retardation. surprisingly, you can live a somewhat normal life, especially if done at a young age.

i feel vulgar even chiming in, but i can vouch for the fact that it's amazing what a young brain can do to re-structure (for lack of a better term) itself in order to function.

my son was born two months premature, and within the first 24 hours of life contracted e coli menangitis in the hospital. this led to incredible brain bleeds and long story short, we were told all kinds of terrible things to expect and that his brain was essentially "swiss cheese". we were told he'd be deaf, blind, and severely retarded. one particular blow was being told he would never laugh or even smile, which was devastating to us as parents as joking and laughter is a big part of our game. i'm happy to report going on 5 years later, virtually none of that came to fruition. mose jr has his issues, but is a highly functioning child who happens to have cerebral palsy. and we're treated like rock stars wherever we go because of his infectious smile and social skills.

i say all this only to pass on some advice to never listen to what doctors tell you. i can only imagine what the parents are going through, but again am certainly praying for brighter days ahead. stay strong.

Was there with family which is probably worse.

Replaced my Phillies hat today.

these coffee jitters are horrible.

I went to see Bruce in DC tonight, on the way home I drank 1 large REd Bull, 2 Cokes, and a Monster Coffee Drink and I thought I was having a heart attack but I'm pretty sure it's caffeine overload holy crap this sucks. I can't concentrate, I get numbness in my legs and arms, and wow it stinks. HOpefully it wears off soon.

yea caffeine overload is pretty brutal. I don't understand how people can drink a whole pot in one sitting

I've got 7 Phillies hats that I wear with regularity. Is that too many?

I've got 3. WS 2008 patch, 2008 NLCS champions cap and a throw back 80s maroon with this amazingly mismatched astro turf green under the bill.

thanks, SK!
