Hurricane Ike moved north from Texas to visit us here in the Great Midwest. It was a rain forest for, like, three days. Dang this global warming... when will we learn! He he.

The coolest thing was that Ike maintained it's comma shape as it traveled up the continent. Pretty cool. See?


Hurricane Ike moved the Cub-Astro game to Milwaukee Sunday night. Ty, me, the Poap and Poap, Jr. were in attendance as Carlos Zambrano threw a no-hitter Yes, it was glorious. It was the first Cub no-hitter since Milt Pappas' near-perfect game in 1972. Huzzah!
