chillows and unfriendly confines

While putting him to bed last night, Anthony says...

"Dad, I think I have an idea for an invention. A pillow cooler. It would keep your pillow cool all the time so that you wouldn't have to keep turning it over."

"Dude," I said, "I would buy one."

Then today I see someone has already beat him to it.

Still a great idea from a nine-year-old.

Depressing weekend for the Cards in the not-so-friendly confines. Just when you think the pen is starting to shine, they in fact show how they were simply overachieving.

A tremendous effort by Carp... wasted. A very good effort by el Sid... wasted.

Izzy showed last night why he scares me every time he takes the mound.

Just glad they are coming back to the new stadium for this series with the Brewers. A sea of Cardinal red can't help but cure what ails them.
