JSS: Cold's Back-- Horror in Sox Bullpen-- Taxes-- GAS GOUGE

JSS-- Just Some Stuff


1. COLD'S BACK-- We sure got spoiled with the weather from Saturday until Wednesday. Temps 60 degrees+ and sun. Reality came back yesterday with cold and wind and appears to be back for a week. Sure nice while it lasted.


2. HORROR IN SOX BULLPEN-- The A's should be paying the Sox bullpen after all the kindness they've given three of the four games when leads in the ninth were blown. Of course, there was that debacle last Friday in the 9th when a 7-4 Sox lead became a 9-7 loss. In the BP's defense, there were two big errors in the field as well.


3. CIVIL WAR INUNDATION-- I have many sources for Civil War news, but lately, because of the sesquicentennial (150 years) of the firing on Fort Sumter and beginning of the Civil War, it has come as a flood. Reckon I'll have to just get used to it. Twist my arm!!


4. TAXES-- Yesterday, mailed off $1238 to the federal government and had a smile on my face. Usually I have to pay $5,000 to $6,000. I guess the scholarship at NIU, gift to Our Lady of Grace in Chicago and miniscule CD interest paid off.


5. GAS GOUGE-- a little less hurtful as gas in Fox Lake dropped a whole ten cents to $4 at one station. It took that long for Friday's $7 drop in oil to go in effect, six days. Had it gone up $7, we would have seen the increase at the pumps in an hour and not just a 10 cent increase.
