GO STROS

mlb.com

thanks to my historian brother
when we were little
we all ate slept breathed baseball
he collected all the baseball cards he could get his hands on
they
if they were around now
would be worth a ton of money
all those hall of fame rookie cards

ok
so some of them got used on our bikes
clothes pinned to the spokes
so when we rode the bikes
it sounded like a motorcycle
the more cards
the louder it was

so most folks where i grew up in southern arkansas
they were cardinal fans
everyone listened to the cardinal games
on the radio
then
came the astros in houston
came the rangers in dallas

so most folks in that area liked one of those
three teams
the oldie guys they liked the cardinals

we were rangers/astros fans
while my boys were growing up
we went to several rangers games
we all loved nolan ryan
he had played for both the astros and rangers

then a local businessman bought the astros
his son was my sons best friend growing up
so
we became astros fans after that

my son attended the astros games several times
over several years
even
jeff bagwell gave him a personalized signed
ball for his birthday once

so
after the astros were sold to the present owners
we over time sort of lost our interest in watching
baseball
its a long slow game not made well for tv
i usually reserved watching games to the
allstar game or world series
but havent watched either the last few years
spending my sports time on tv on
basketball and football and soccer

after the astros were sold
they cleared their roster of anyone anyone had heard of
it was a young team
that has waxed and wane with its youth

now this year
although i havent watched a game
i sort of peripherally have kept up with them
somewhat

so
this may be the first world series ive watched in a long time

now
here where we live
we are most definitely in dodgers country

being an astros fan here would be like being an aggie fan
in austin or more like an oklahoma fan in austin

now
i dont have any astros stuff to wear
yes i do have one dodger shirt
i was given it
i like it because it has my favorite color on it
blue
i actually wear it when i garden since i dont mind getting
it all dirty

so
here in dodger country
i will proudly say

go stros

it just seems right that houston is in the world series
after all the destruction that harvey has done to the area
kinda like the saints in the super bowl after katrina

it just seems right that they also win the world series

go stros

beer can wifi, cooler corn, world series

BEER CAN WIFI
below is a link to use a cut up beer can to boost your wifi
apparently it works as its is reported in this report by
the computer guru kim komando

here is the link to her video

wonder if generic lite beer will work instead of bud lite
maybe coors train beer would be faster
maybe using foster australian beer would be better since the
can is larger

now if it would just work on this verizon card i have to use
do know if i drink the big can of foster before i mess with the
verizon card the slow internet service doesnt bother me as
much

looks like thats the only way i can boost my wifi
that can just wont fit around that flat card

COOLER CORN
my rain water brothers wife she sent another email about how
to cook corn
last week i posted the video on how to shuck corn easily with
no strings attached using the microwave
dang it sure worked well

well with this method called the cooler corn is easy also
just take a cooler and place shucked corn in it
add two kettles of boiling water
close lid
let sit for 30 minutes
you got done corn
called cooler corn

WORLD SERIES
tonight is game 6 of the world series
rangers could close it out tonight or
the cardinals come tie it up and cause a game 7 showdown
its going to be cold in st louis

come on rangers get it done
(unless of course you are a cardinal fan then ignore this)
