Ups and Downs of the week.

New York City – Heading home tomorrow, but it’s been a great week. Fantastic restaurants here.

  Offshore drilling – No more permits until the oil companies can prove they can stop disasters like this.

Red Sox – They sweep the Rays, best team in the majors (in their own park, no less), and then falter against a paltry team like Kansas City at Fenway. I just don’t understand.

Summertime – It’s here in full bloom.

  Plantar Fasciitis – Severely curbed my walking in NYC. Ouch.

Celtics – Finally got past the Magic. Celtics-Lakers in the finals. A classic matchup.

While I pity anyone who will be attending the 2014 Super Bowl, I have to say NYC is still a great place to visit.

Ups and Downs of the week.

Cool Cars -Went by Isringhausen today. Lots of awesome machines.

1970s Trans Am

  Oil Spill – What a mess.

  Red Sox – Just when you think there’s hope, they play like doo-doo again.

Little bit of time off – I need it.

Ups and Downs of the week.

Formula One – Monaco this weekend. Best race on the circuit. My dream is to see a Monaco GP in person. Unless I hit the lottery, it’ll never happen, though.

  Drill baby, drill! – Maybe not so much.

  Bruins – I never expected them to get this far, but it’s sad that they blew a 3-0 series lead and a 3-0 lead in Game 7. Gonna be a long off-season for those guys.

Red Sox – Looking steadier. Offense is coming around and the starting pitching is slowly finding the groove.

Celtics – Made the Cavs look like amateurs. On to the Magic.

  Highway Construction – It’s that time of year again. Seems they never finish it.

Weather – Aside from the occasional shower, the weather has been awesome. I love temps in the 60s and 70s.

Spies of the Balkans – Alan Furst’s new book is out. Can’t wait to read it. He is always excellent.

400th Post – Small milestone here on Randomography.

New Garage Door – No more worries about it falling in on the cars.

Ups and Downs of the week.

Formula One – Back in Europe. The best part of the season.

  Disasters -Tennessee floods, oil spill in the gulf, tornadoes all around. Nasty spring so far.

  Red Sox- They swept the Halos, but they lost a game tonight to the Yankmees. Beckett has some serious head problems. Is there a shrink in the house?

Bruins – Dealing with it. They lost a hard fought game tonight, but I’m sure they’ll prevail and move on.

Celtics – They looked awesome for a couple of games, but LeBron and the Cavs aren’t going to roll over and die.

  Stock Market -A typo can throw the whole system into a tailspin?

School’s Out – No more classes. Just have to write a thesis and I’m done.
