Hawaii 5.0

A topsy turvy weekend to be a New York Met fan, with Billy Wagner getting beat for the loss late in the game on Friday after a terrific game by Carlos Delgado and then Steve Trachsel showing everyone why his ERA is just below 5 with his "performance" on Saturday. But then, the lineup woke up on Sunday night just in time, they hit a bunch of home runs, and the game is now a best of three with Tom Glavine pitching tonight and two out of three games at Shea.

Now that baseball is out of the way, we can talk about more important things. Football! The Jets beat Miami in a squeaker yesterday. All right, I'm kidding. On to actually more important things: Natural Disasters! Oh, you know this is going to be good because the Bush administration has been so good at handling these in the past.

An earthquake struck Hawaii over the weekend (What? Now they're too good for volcanoes?) and it has been the lead story on most of the news stations and websites since. The toll: no fatalaties, some structural damage, and some power outages. All right, so how long until President Bush shows up on a pile of pineapples with a bullhorn and decries renegade tremors?

Once again, busy week for me. I'll be back in full force soon.
