I have to say this is amazing.. Jon Lester's the guy who just battled lymphoma. Now he's throwing no-hitters.
But let me add this before anyone's panties get in a bunch -- the Rex Sox are the new Yankees. We used to be in the same loveable losers boat together, Sox & Cubs fans. But now you guys are throwing $50million at Japanese players just to talk? Gimme a break. Go Cubs Go!
Tom Waits unveiled plans for a 13-date summer tour. Will you go see this singer/songwriter who's been called "one of the last beatniks of the contemporary music?"
uh, of course i would. but can i afford it? suze orman says no.
for those more financially solvent than myself, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

Show us a photo of cherry blossoms in bloom.... Or, if you don't have cherry blossoms where you live, show us a photograph of any flower in bloom!
BAH HUMBUG!
S had never heard of Grape Ape.
Thursday, while at Ulysses after work with coworkers, CNBC nutcase Jim Cramer showed up with a camera crew. Not sure what was going on. Yea, I don't like him either.
Friday found us in Williamsburg at a new bar called The Gutter, which is run by the same folks who do Barcade (yes, Williamsburg has the best bars). S spotted Frodo^H^H^H^H^H Elija Wood.
Yea, I know star sightings are a dime a dozen in NYC, but unlike some people, we don't get out that much so seeing 2 stars in 2 days is somewhat weird.
