I am, after all, a life-long Red Sox fan.... :^) And I am dancing on air, ever since the semi-finals against the Yankees. :^) Everything after that was anticlimactic.

All those years of exile and suffering! We Cardinal fans cannot relate to it, even after being swept in 4.

Cordially,

Tell me about it, Diamond! I didn't know you were a Cardinals fan. So I'm sorry about that "anticlimactic" remark.... :^) But you know the Yankees and BoSox are always at each other hammer-and-tong. So it was great finally to beat them in the World Championship.

True story: a very elderly gentleman -- age 114 -- was a life-long Red Sox fan, too. Within one month of the World Series, he passed away. Perhaps he was just determined to hang on long enough to see the Sox win the Series; and then he promptly died, his great wish having been granted.

It's so good to see you!
