Ups and downs of the week.

 Red Sox – Looking good lately, a few bad games notwithstanding. Their chances of taking the AL East are slim, but I’m more confident now that they’ll get the wildcard spot and then shine in post-season as they are able to do.

  Hurricane Gustav - New Orleans in the crossshairs again.

 Learning to hunt – Little guy gets a lesson in hunting.

  John McCain – I try to stay away from politics here, but his choice as VP candidate is so ridiculous that it’s terrifying. ‘Nuff said.
