Willkommen, Obamessiah- Despite the cool reception of German politicians it seems Obamania has reached Germany. The common folk turned out to hear the Senator in a crowd estimated at 200,000 plus. As is the norm, Obama laid out another inspirational ditty. It’s too bad the commentators only want to discuss why there is not more beef to Obama’s speech. Has anyone in history given a detailed policy speech ( short maybe of Fidel) to audiences close to a half million people? I highly doubt it, as it would likely be received like McShame speaking to a crowd ( I use this descriptive loosely) of 50…Zzzzzzz.
Bad Bats- Major League Baseball has hired a wood research institute at the University of Wisconsin to evaluate why so far this season has produced 257 broken baseball bats. Theories run from inferior wood to players actually shaving the bats to make them lighter. Will this sport please return to its uncomplicated past. All this trying to cheat the system is indeed getting old, especially when done by multi-millionaire spoiled players.
I am hoping the Yankees take their winning streak to 9 in a row as they head to Boston. Looks as though I will be spending upwards of 12 hours in front of my TV watching the greatest rivalry in sport this weekend.
Uccisione Papparazzi- Apparently, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s security had to literally fight off photographers in camouflage clothing who managed to get onto the grounds of the couples chateau in France. These photographers have become menaces and should be dealt with more harshly. A dignified field has been relegated to parasitic; and authorities must find ways to deter this behavior. Seldom, do I ever side with indulged celebs, but with children involved this practice of bounty hunting photography must end.
