World Series? Cards? Cats? The Election?

So what to do . . . the Series Game 5 is on right now and we are not even watching (give me a few minutes). I've been sitting here with Mark going through his favorite songs on my iPod. He likes the Plain White T's song called "Figure It Out". I'm not really sure how he ever stumbled upon this song but I think it may have been in one of his shows on Disney. Anyway, he likes it. He also likes "Bad Day Bobby" the song about Bobby Petrino leaving Louisville, and "Cheeseburger in Paradise" and really anything Buffett. I think he likes the beach music like his mother. The last one he picked was Akon's "Don't Matter" which I remember I had to download specifically for him a year or two ago.

I also remember him singing this song most of the way home from Florida when we drove the trip. It was too funny because he had headphones in and all we could hear was his singing without the music. Pretty cute. He had this serious look on his face and was belting it out.

Well, the Cards were back on track this weekend beating #14 ranked South Florida 24-20. This was a big win for the team and for Koach Krag. In fact, this was his second win against a Top 20 team in 2 years if I'm not mistaken. It's hard to believe our record in now 5-2. I'm impressed. (Let's say my expectations have been lowered after last season.) I'm cautiously optimistic about Koach. I hope that he's a success. He seems like a good guy and I really do want him to succeed here but he certainly got started off on the wrong foot. Keep it going!

The Cats, well, hmmm, the cats. I'm not sure what to say . . . they're injured. The good thing seems to be that even Coach Brooks was extremely upset with the beat down Florida gave them. I figure if he's that mad then they did actually perform even worse than he expected. Okay, I'm not really sure how that's the "good thing" but anyway. They'll get better. They can't get worse, right? Right?!!

Nine days - but who's counting!? NINE DAYS. N I N E D A Y S. At this point I wish them both well. I seriously wish them both well. I certainly don't want Palin as my President and certainly became concerned again about today's news about a possible assassination plot against Sen. Obama. Come on people. Grow up and get educated. Apparently two "skin heads" were plotting to kill Senator Obama according to a report on MSN.com tonight. The scary thing is these two morons were caught, how many others are out there?


P.S. iPhone update - At the game this Saturday sitting in our seats at the top of Papa Johns Cardinal Stadium, a song comes on over the sound system and we are wondering what song it is and who sings it. So . . . I remember that I have the app Shazam on my phone and decide to try it out. I "tag it" there from my seat and SHAZAM . . . it comes up with "Shake It" by Metro Station. This is the song they play sometimes no during the "Boogie Cam" when they're scanning the crowd for people - well - shaking it!
