"The Mets have been piling up quality starts like Anna Benson's Web site piles up hits."

For those of you tracking "Casey-Watch" 2005, you will most certainly recognize this line! If not, check it out. I first read this and my jaw dropped - "He didn't actually write that." "He did really write that! How did he get his editor to go along with that?" LOVE IT!!!!! For anyone who doesn't understand, Anna Benson is the model wife of starting Mets pitcher Kris Benson. Well done Case, truely top notch. It's good to see that those late nights watching Def Comedy Jam have helped to contribute to your journalistic career. Also, check out this Casey gem about a Mets top pitching prospect who just bought a one-way ticket to the OR. Later in the article, about a different 'challenged' hurler - "Apparently Ishii isn't done as a starter just yet" writes Mike Casey. I disagree Mr. Casey, just because he is getting a start, doesn't mean that he is not DONE as a starter!

PS- Now that hockey is coming back, I really hope we won't lose your baseball insight, because I'd hate to have to read hockey articles.

In other news, Nick will begin moving into his new home at the end of this month and he will begin his reign as East Baltimore's most considerate slum lord. Check out some pictures on his rooftop deck with truly the best view in all of Baltimore. Mighty impressive, sir, mighty impressive. Great stain job, by the way, very professional. I will note that Nick very much enjoys staining outdoor wood structures, so anyone with a deck to stain, give him a call and he'd be happy to help, or just do it for you!

Happy birthday to Ken Card! Peddle safely.

Last week Atlanta made it's yearly month-long tour of the northeast- Mike, Patti, Christopher, Austin, and Julia all piled into their Bob The Builder bus and swept the coast in public appearances. Here are pictures from their Saturday Maywood stop. Click This! It was WONDERFUL to see the fam, makes me regret only getting to see them all once or twice a year, but it makes those visits all the more special. Also, Austin, I am so sorry, but somehow I didn't get a picture of or wth you! I'm sorry buddy! Uncle Al, also, my appologies.

Have a good weekend folks, we will be down in Lancaster, so there are sure to be some more adorable little ones pictures posted next week for all you little ones groupies. Have a good one!
