NY Yankees are Champs again...

which means that the Bloody Soxes are the Biggest Loser, again. After the August sweep (all right winning two three, which is just fine with Meatloaf), an Elite Member wrote me suggesting that my gloating blog at that time was dangerously premature. So, just one question, Theodore:

How's my timing now?

Yankees in five over the Phighten Phillies. Staying with the World of Sports, President Obama leaving Thursday for a visit to my ancestral home, Copenhagen, Denmark. After pleading for the International Olympic Committee to award the 2016 summer games to Chicago, the President, it is said, will drop by 26 Vogsmansmarken Street to home for the Ms. Annie and the Ms. Vera Onsdorff, who lived there from 1937 until their demise, consistent with the care limitations of the Danish socialized medicine system.

While this visit to pay homage to an American Family is certainly appropriate, one may question how Presidential is a lobbying trip for just one American governmental subdivision for an event nine years hence. Oh well, this President should pay off his political debt, particularly, when two wars and other national security issues are not really clamoring for his immediate attention.
