A few quick, random thoughts and tidbits this time around...

It looks like the tongue-in-cheek prediction I made for the Sox season on CLTV on Opening Day is coming true... the White Sox will indeed go all the way to the end... they'll play every single game of the regular season! D'oh!

Area IndyCar racing phenom Danica Patrick (raised in Roscoe, IL) will be competing at the Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet September 9th. Danica was impressive at the Indy 500, at times occupying the top 3 before torrential downpours called the race prematurely. Had the full race been run, she may very well have won. As it is, her ranking has risen from 12th to 9th to a current 7th place in the overall standings in her first three years as a pro. Danica has taken more than her fair share of guff from the boys in a male-dominated sport, so it's gratifying to see her making some headway. Go get 'em Danica!

Many heartfelt thanks to the Loyal Loopers who took the time to wish me a happy birthday on Friday. You're the best!
