It’s All Even….

Today we found 1.29 in change and 122 bottles and cans.
Sox Update – Well, we’ve evened up the series at one apiece, thanks to a gutsy pitching performance by Julian Tavarez and some timely hitting by the offense, including a titanic shot by Manny Ramirez. If I were Joe Torre though, losing the game would be the least of my problems. Mike Mussina looked terrible. His fastball at times only reached 84 mph, and had trouble locating his pitches. In my opinion he was lucky to last as long as he did. Listening to his comments on Sportscenter only confirmed what I saw, and made you wonder if the guy was contemplating retirement, it was that telling. There’s either something physically wrong with him or he’s lost it. Curt Schilling goes to the hill against Andy Pettitte tonight in the final game.

Money Report – We had another pretty good day on the streets of our little town. Michele found one penny at school to start off the scoring. The evening walk contributed the rest of the coinage to our total. First we found a penny on the corner of Mill and Main Street, then at the car wash we found 1.18 (3 quarters, 3 dimes, and 13 pennies). All of the coins were scattered about near the vacuum areas or found in the self-serve bays. The final coin, a dime, was found near Luigi’s to round the total. In addition, we also found a LSU Tiger! Looks like another yard sale item to me.

Good Night and Good Hunting~
