As a die hard Cardinals fan, it grieves me to report that they lost 6 to 4 tonight..... This has been an amazing Series..
1-0, 3-2, 1-0, 5-3 and tonight 6 - 4 The winning scores total to 16 to the losing scores totaling 9... that seems not too close, but in reality it is...

NOW, since the game has been brought up.... The commentators for the games in LA are, in my opinion, horrible...NOT because they are for LA,,, that is to be expected. But their commentary is just foolish......

Does anyone else that has been watching the series think this also...

inquiring minds want to know

I've watched 3-4 innings of the Red Sox/Tiger series on FOX.
I don't have Dodgers/St.Louis on TV. They are on TBS.
That is the Turner Broadcasting (?). They are using Atlanta Brave broadcasters.

On radio Dodgers use VINCE SCULLY (62 years of broadcast experience). Rick Monday (former OF), and Charlie Steiner.
Scully does 1-3, and 7-9 innings. I listen in whenever they are on in El Paso station.

World Series I believe will be on Fox with Buck & former Cardinal catcher. These guys have all kind of stats available to them.

I've read a few people do not like Scully. In their mind he is over the hill. I started listening to BB in 1947 W/S. Vin started at age 22, after graduating frpm FORDAM U. where he did football/bb.
His broadcast experience and knowledge is the greatest in sports history. Sure he is 85, but can still deliver the good, the bad, and the disappointments, and the greats.

His greatest game ever broadcast was DON LARSON'S PERFECT W/S GAME IN 1956, against the Dodgers. Sandy Koufax perfect game, Kirk Gibson HR, are two more notable great games.

But what do I know? The Dodgers followed me to LA in October 1957. I was 11 when I heard my 1st W/S game. Yankee broadcaster was Mel Allen, and Dodger broadcaster was Red Barber. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

These occurred in the past month. Hot Summer. finally got some rain. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

About 9 inches of rain in 3 months, compared to 9 inches in 3 years. Some areas got flooded in SWNM & TX.

More pics to come shortly. Fixing a glitch in my system.

I am amazed to see men in my area working in the 100 degree heat and with hats-helmet, long sleeve shirts, and some with their orange vests. Blue collar guys making pesos to feed their families. The humidity is only in the 10-12 degree range. These men are either native NM's/TX's or from south of the border. They are here five days per week. These kind of workers are not your every day drunks and druggies. They are not lazy.

When I worked for the PO, in SoCal, I didn't listen to weather forecast cause I didn't want to know how miserable I was supposed to be. I would be out there from 10:30AM till 3PM.
I could not work 6-8 hours in the sun. We worked in all kinds of weather.

If we had several million of these guys coming here, I say, WELCOME.

Well we finally got some rain, but the DEW POINT at 65%? Temps have dropped about 15 % in 2 weeks.

Can't wait until we get the blue skies and 5-10% humidity and equal DP.

But unfortunately some areas got flooded. Poor drainage. Dam broke. This happens in low income areas. Flooding has not happened since 2006. We we live FEDS required that the arroyos be updated, and this helped.

Bridge and road construction was going on during the the hot spell.

YES! We had our first rain in about 8 months. Lasted about an hour plus. We've been in drought conditions for
about 3 yrs. Less than 10 inches of rain in that time.

Normally we get about 15 minute downpour. I call it the FRAIN.
Like 15 minutes of fame. :-)

We get summer days with as little as 5 degree humidity.
Monsoon season should start in June-July-August - September!

Water shortage is damaging the agriculture in this state.


On 9-13-2013 we have recorded 2 inches of rain this month.
Here in the SWNM, we are getting some flooded areas, and in
El Paso, TX., they have more. So we had 7 years of dryness.
Last flooding was the day or 2 following Labor Day 2006.

Many areas here in the desert don't have the $$$$ to fix things right. Sometimes money promised is never sent or misspent.

We've had downpours at least 6-8 times in past 4 days. More is anticipated during the say. Can't believe we've had 65% DEW POINT.

Of course, Colorado has gotten hammered, with streets and bridges collapsing.

There are casualties.

Drive safely. Turn around, don't drown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No info for the OP, but an interesting tidbit here. Anarticle in our newspaper this week indicated that printer ink, if purchased by the cartridge would average between $3000 and $5000 per gallon. Gas is amazingly cheap by comparison. Surely this is a big ripoff by the major manufacturers, if generic ink can be several times cheaper.


Why do think the printers are so cheap? They get you when you pay for the replacement ink cartridge.

Saw an article when comparing gallons of assorted products few years back. They listed ink at $3500 per gallon.

Kodak is now in business printers!!!!!!!!! :shock:

I just learned that I was born in 5697. And after all this time I thought I was born 11 months after Elvis. :shock:

The first day where I currently live, is the day Elvis left the building.

My first full day of moving to NM, was 61 years after D-Day.

I learned all this playing Jeopardy on my iphone. :-D :lol: :)

Thank you for your participating.

My description may have been faulty. I apologize.

The two men are: Edward (Ted) Kenndy (Left)
Walter Cronkite (Right)

Both are in the white part of the cloud only.

This was only seen at the time I downloaded the photo on PC.
I did not see the faces till the next day.
What has it been, 2-3 years ago?

When I worked for a museum in SoCal, I used to see things other did not. Only after showing them did they understand my sightings, 7 out of 10 people understood.

I have one sunset photo I put in another gallery, that shows a female face

Thanks again, for your time spent.

Here is a picture taken in 2000's.

There are two faces in the white cloud. Two famous icons.
One is facing north on the left side.
One is facing south on the right side.
The forehead is the connecting factor for the picture.
They died within 8-10 weeks of each other.

Therefore I call this photo "4closure".
There are 4 road closed signs at the end of this street.

Can any of you sharp shooters tell me who they are?
:)
