I enjoyed watching the Giants/Phillies game yesterday.
Don't laugh, but I was amazed to hear the announcer say that the skinny, long-haired pitcher had won two Cy Young Awards. Or that the tall drink of water in the Phillies outfield had tied the record for most post-season homeruns.
I'd never heard of either of them.

Apparently.

My brother and I were walking the Dry River Canyon a few weeks ago, and on our way out a couple of other hikers asked us if we'd seen the critter.
I'd totally forgotten about it.
I'm glad it's moved to the Newberry Crater area. I was worried about it.

Like the phrase. Anyway, that's the way I've been eating for years, now. Little bit here, little bit there, never really a full meal.
Makes it hard to explain to family and friends -- especially Foodies --when they ask me about meals and cooking and so on, and I don't have an answer. Of course, I do it because I'm lazy, not for my health.
"Ah....I just sort of eat whatever, whenever...."

Some folks are saying the Ducks won't be #1 in the BCS this week either.
Whatever.... maybe not being #1 is a good thing, at least until the final game of the year. #2, on the other hand, is crucial.
