painting the town red sox
Here are the pictures of the Red Sox celebration in Boston today. I only had my camera phone, so the quality isn't great and I didn't get some shots, but here is our day in images (and a few words).
We rode in on the train, along with every high school kid skipping school . . .
our two favorite brands: Red Sox and Dunkin Donuts . . .
this woman, in her mid-sixties, did what she could to see the parade . . .
if you own the team, you get to ride in the front car . . .
some of our favorite pitchers . . .
they even let Gagne ride along . . .
Pedroia and Youuuuuuuuk . . .
Papelbon and the Dropkick Murphys . . .
Ginger and I celebrating our champions.
Peace,
Milton

Congrats to the best team in baseball...period. I know you guys will miss Boston (it is a great town), but just become one of the growing league of Sox fans living all over the world...hey, I'm a Louisiana boy living in Austin who cheers for the Indians...go figure.
Soak it all up my friend...Yikes, I better quit before I break into a "Memories" duet with Streisand...

You might have to import those Dunkin' Donuts! Man, this is Krispy Kreme (the king of doughnuts!) country down here! Looking forward to a visit.

Thanks for the peek into your community. (Still your community for a short time, right?) I'll try to remember to do the same thing when the Spurs win the championship agains this year.
A few years ago I was at the Alamodome watching the Spurs win a playoff game. (They have since gotten their own arena. TDhe Alamodome was a converted football space) After the game we all spilled out of the stadium onto the streets and I noticed something wonderful. Men in lawyer-looking suits were high-fiving vatos wearing bandanas and looking very south-side. For a few moments at least, we were all in this together.
WOW! Go Sox! If you get a chance go to

Please do not transport that AL propaganda here, the DH dooms the AL and therefore the Sox in the mind of a "true" baseball fan;-)
The bats of the Sox are amazing, there are very few pitchers AL or NL who could slow them down for more than a game or two.
