Manuel on Manny
Before the game, Manuel was acutely aware that Ramírez, one of his favorite people, was in hot water again -- this time for being in the clubhouse shower when Rollins got his walk-off hit Monday. A bad nonchalant teammate? The Philly media roasted him.
"Whatever Manny has to do be relaxed, he has to do it or he can't hit as well," said Manuel who knew Ramírez before he could even read or write and had breakfast with him nearly every day. So, if, to attain that calm, he must feign indifference or have Manny-Being-Manny outbreaks, so be it. Manuel loves it all. "When Manny doesn't run out a grounder to the pitcher, I think sometimes he's just so focused on hitting he forgets."
I read that in a Washington Post article by Thomas Boswell. And seasoned it with those links.

Suffering the Slings
Lauren and I sat in the front row at God Save Gertrude last night. And took a picture.
Apparently, Hamlet wasn't quite the punk rock type. Much more Elliot Smith than Patti.

And Peas
I like for my plants to grow natural. I figure if the dirt and the rain don't grow it, it's not meant.

An Opening Scene?
Apparently Ben Folds writes rock operas by accident.
According to one new friend, anyway.I believe her.
And I think lots of you already know this, but I have moved to LA. Some destinies call from the west.
