WEATHER PUSHES BACK WORLD SERIES, VCU MULLS ADDING FOOTBALL

The weather wasn't doing the World Series yesterday in Philadelphia pushing back the conclusion of game 5 until tonight. They are suppose to throw the 1st pitch tonight at 8:37pm with the Phillis hitting in the bottom of the 6th inning with score tied at 2. There was an article in yesterdays paper about VCU mulling the possibility of adding football in the future, the outgoing president didn't want football but the AD at VCU thinks that the new president may want to explore this option in the future. If this happens the VCU bookstore wont be able to sell the shirt that say VCU football still undefeated. I think that VCU will add football at some point in the future, it may 10 years though before they actually have a team on the field. Believe it or not we actually had baseball camp at the stadium last night, it was bit cool and it a bit breezy but for as much rain we had on Monday the field was actually in very good condition. My PAIN index is up a bit from throwing BP yesterday but not to much. It looks like the majority of people who voted on the poll of where fellow blogger Mark has been agree that the reason that he has been absent lately is because he hasn't inducted into the Whiffle Ball Hall of Fame.

DID YOU KNOW
The bird with the largest wingspan is the Wandering Albatross Diomedea exulans which lives in the southern oceans. Its wings average 2.54 - 3.51 m. The largest recorded wingspan was of a very old male whose wings measured 3.63 m.

Pillow Case for Trick or Treat Bag
A white pillow case (or any old one will do) works really well for trick or treating. It holds lots of candy, won't tear and can be seen by motorists when most costumes are dark. They can be decorated to look more festive. For shorter children, they could be cut down shorter or folded inward to half the size.
