Dinner at Chesapeake Bay Seafood House most weekends
Shopping at Pan Am Shopping Center
Going to the Waxy Maxie's record store to buy records and tapes (Remember those?)

An actual drive in theater in Merrifield that my Mom worked at
The Woolco store in Pan Am that my my mom worked at and spent evenings there playing Atari waiting for her to get off of work.
Tysons Corner Shopping Center
Fairfax Circle
Hanging at both the Fairfax and Vienna Libraries
Going to 7-11 just about every day to buy comic books
The Greaseman on DC 101
The time when TV actually had good cartoons
And many more memories....

Predictions For the Baseball Playoffs-Divisional Round
Lets see....
American League:
NY Yankees Over Min. In 5-With a lotta good pitching expected in this one, there should be a few extra inning games.
Texas over Tampa in 5- If Cliff Lee has a repeat of his 2009 post season, and Josh Hamilton's Ribs Hold up.
National League:
Philadelphia over Cincy in 3- The 2 Roys (Halliday and Oswalt) have been incridible the last 2 months, and Cole Hamels can shut down anyone on any day.
SF over ATL in 5. This is a toss up could go either way. Both teams have good hitting and pitching.
What's your picks?

Happy Banned Book Week!
I was interested to see that this is Banned Book Week. In a country with freedom of speech and expression like the US, you'd think that the idea of banning books would not exist. But sadly, it's here. My opinion: I know that some subjects are not appropriate for certain age groups, and there are subjects that you may disagree with , and that's OK. If you don't like it, DON'T READ IT!!!! If I want to read something, I have the right to do so, without you putting your nose in my affairs. DON'T FORCE YOUR MORALITY ON ME! You take away 1 freedom, and the rest will follow...

The GOP Civil War
Seems like the Republican Party has been hijacked by the extremist of the Tea Party. When you have someone like Utah Senator Bob Bennett, who is probably one of the most conservative members of congress primaried out of his job, you know that the crazies have taken control. The extremists demand that all party members vote in lock step with their demands, and any bit of compromise is seen as a sign of being a sellout. It remains to be seen if the Tea Party is a "Flavor of the month" Fad, if the sane members can regain control, or if the moderates are totally forced out.
If You Can’t Trust A Preacher…
Teacher, coach, or anyone else entrusted with your kids, who can you trust? Those who use their positions of authority to get close to kids in order to commit abuse are the lowest of the low, and need to be prosecuted as severly as possible!

With All The Religious Intolerance Going on…
I'm afraid that we are headed towards a religious war here in the US. The moderates in each faiths are being shouted out by the extremists, and lots of the extremists are calling for violence. Something needs to be done before people get hurt.
