The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

OMG... what a great night. Quincy Jones night, simply fantastic. The Q was on stage. Gary thinks he was asleep most of the time, but he was here, at the Bowl, for his night.

Meanwhile, the Dodgers are choking ... back when they were winning, they weren't winning by much ... barely winning deep into the innings and extra innings. Gary was holding his breath that the injured would be back about the time the Dodgers' luck ran out ... it hasn't quite turned out that way.

@ Peg: Gary didn't run away ... just that life sorta overwhelmed him ... Dodgers were not high on his todo list.

Gary's addressing this now because he on a bus with some time to kill.

They were bound to come back to earth. It didn't help coming up against a red hot Diamondbacks team. If anything haunts them, it could be not going after Verlander. Still time to get things in order before playoffs, this up coming series is a good place to start. A lot of times it's who is the hottest team coming into playoffs. Should be an interesting October, looking forward to it. Unfortunately, the Dodgers could open up against the Diamondbacks which hopefully isn't going to be a mental block.

@ JC: There is a local burger chain that Mary Lou and Gary like, The Habit. (Their fish sandwich is a thick tuna steak, yum.) They are having a seasonal special with Hatch Chilies on their food. We had fast food last night at the Bowl, Mary Lou had a Hatch Burger with Pepper Jack and Gary had a chicken salad with Hatch Chilies. (see image above)

Have in-laws in Florida and Puerto Rico. Hoping that all are well, and evacuating to safe areas.

Models show Irma in a few different paths, all affecting Florida to a certain extent. Also looks like SC could get hit badly...

Looks like Jose is (hopefully) going out to sea (sorry Bermuda!). Hopefully it doesn't come back in and hit the Northeast like Sandy did.

The office has been told to stay close in case the Emergency Operations Center is activated next week. The boss watches a forum full of weather geeks with known track record for acuracy; they're saying Jose may track closer to the coast and Irma may hit a bit further north.

Hosers! Got hit by the ball twice coaching softball practice tonight. Missed a very hard throw while I was warming up our pitcher and she got me right on the ankle of my right foot. Ouch. Then I took a foul ball off my left knee. Just missed my kneecap which would have been ugly. Instead hit just to the outside. My reflexes are so much slower than they used to be!

In other news - GO PATS!!!!!

Of course...now that I actually read your post...that wouldn't have helped, haha.
