Go Tigers.

Just want to comment quickly about how great the Tigers are. They are great. How's that for brief. But really it is an amazing run they are on and it would be great if they could clinch the ALCS in Detroit. If we could just get Mags to stop swinging at the first pitch. For those who aren't aware I went to the clinching game against New York last Saturday. The game was great but so is the city. It gets nicer and nicer every time I go back. And even free street parking for the biggest baseball game in 22 years.

I had a nice birthday today. I don't feel any different now that I'm thirty. I celebrated by having a $40 lunch at a Brazilian steakhouse with 6 of my former SEC co-workers. So much for me not eating red meat. It was delicious. I have had red meat this year even though I tried to give it up as one of my new year goals but probably less than 10 times total. Then for dinner a group of us went out for dinner and watched the Tiger game. Brad and T-Bag even picked up the bill. What a couple of swell guys. I even stopped by Lenscrafters today and got the paint cleaned off that I got on them a year ago. And to make up for my binge eating I walked 31 flights of stairs in my building to train for the Sears Tower climb on Nov 12th. This will be my last post before I leave for London on Sunday. I'm looking forward to hanging out with my old roommate for a week. Take care.
