Here are some Yankees fans waiting for a train to the Bronx. Do you see any philosophy here? Hmmm.
Add a Mets fan and all of a sudden the eyes light up!
I had the misfortune of sitting next to a six-year-old Yankees fan named Stephen. I admire his perseverence. He was a total pain in the butt.

There's a WSJ article on Weblogs, I read it on the plane from Miami to San Francisco this morning, but MSNBC didn't pick it up. If you spot it on the Web, please send me a pointer.
Lawrence Lee found the WSJ article on Weblogs. "This link will probably stop working in a few days," he says.

Now that I'm back, one of my first things to do is to get Groove installed on my system. Have you been using it? Want to write a mini-review? Send it to me and I'll start a mail page. Lots of catching up to do here.
Register: Is Groove the new Napster?
