Well, let's start with some famous quotes from my mother:
"If you don't like it, put ketchup on it." Pass is it on over.
"Keep your paints on." I think that about sums up the teaching in an Isleton Catholic home.
"I love you, but I can't trust you." Ouchh! Yet no one believes me when I say I am sensitive.

Baseball season really counts after Memorial Day, so isn't it fitting that the Giants come to Otown om Memorial 27? Really, that's all I have got for this week regarding the Green and Gold. I am not quite sure if they are going through a collective Sophomore Slump, or if they still are a little intoxicated from last season's story book run, but man oh man did the A's (bleepppp!) this week. Ish it was depressing.
FYI: the home of the Visalia Rawhide, Rawhide Park is a gem of a ballpark. The stands are close to the action, and the team really tries to include something for everyone. The Rawhide is an affiliate of the DBacks. So, if you are ever in the neigborhood, I will make waffles for breakfast. The park is just about 40 minutes from the casa.
This week's tip of the hat goes to the Warriors. Their season too was a great little run. Nice to see the sea of yellow in the ROAR-acle. The Spurs were just too good--interesting read on their coach, Greg Popovich in SI. Tony Parker may just be one of the most underrated and unheralded NBA players of all-time. Looks like the Kings will staying in Sacramento although it is interesting how Kansas City never comes up in the conversation-->remember, the Kings came from somewhere else too.
The Kings saga reminds me of a tour guide in Portugal. On a tour in the old country I realized a pattern in her history lessons. When ever the Portuguese went into other lands they were "Exploring." When foreign people moved in they were "Invading." Hum. Well, Sacramentans didn't mind the Invading of KC, but they sure didn't like the Exploring of those pesky Seattle types.
I try to keep an eye on Hockey for my man Tim Cannata--his Boston Bruins are feeling it, that's for sure. Four goals in the last period, now that's hockey. Who needs a goalie anyway? My sister's Sharks however, are in a bit of hole in LA. Am I the only one who would like to see the lighted puck back on television? In the future the Wild will be the team of the Lounge, wada wada wada!
Last but not least, this Saturday marks the second leg of Horse Racing's Triple Crown, the Preakness. The race starts at 3:20 PST. I am still staying with Itsmyluckyday, but, I just got a feeling, Mylute, and Rosie the Rider just may make history Saturday. By the way, anyone want to go in on a racehorse?
One Deck: The French Open...and of course my favorite time of year the Bay Bridge Series!
