Pujols for President

I had the privelage of attending yesterday's baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Milwaukee Brewers. By the way, it was the home opener for the Cardinals in their brand new stadium. It was quite a day. There were probably over 100,000 people in the downtown area, with just under 42,000 in attendance at the game. Anyway, the new place in incredible, and I can't wait to go to more games. Now I will give you my case for electing Albert Pujols as President of the United States. Whenever there is a problem, Albert can mash a 450 ft. home run and when everyone says "Wow, that guy is the best player in baseball", they will realize that quarrelling over things like Social Security and health care are silly. They will come to an agreeance over all pressing issues and the country will be wonderful. The reason I say that is because in the game yesterday, Pujols blasted a home run that almost left the stadium. The only downside to the game was another disappointing game by the bullpen, especially Izzy. He gives up a meatball grand slam on Sunday giving the Cubs a win, and he almost blew the home opener. I don't know if it's in his head or what, but he better get his act together or else we should look for a new closer. The final score of the game was 6-4 Cardinals.

On a serious note, my sister-in-law's husband, who is a Marine, is currently serving in Iraq. The vehicle he was riding in was hit by 3 I.E.D.'s. For those of you who don't know what an I.E.D. is, it stands for Improvised Explosive Device. The insurgents use them to attack convoys and vehicles. Anyway, despite being hit by 3 of them, no one in the vehicle was seriously hurt. The driver hit his head, and that is the worst of it. I think the soldiers in that vehicle had some help from God on that one. So please, put him in your prayers along with all of the other soldiers serving in our Military.

That is not exactly a very good segway for this, but what can I do. I finally saw the movie "Team America - World Police". This movie was made by the creators of South Park. It done completely with puppets. Let me just say, it was an absolutely hilarious movie. I won't go into specifics, but I highly recommend this movie if you like South Park.

This whole link thing is getting difficult, but as I promised, here ya go.

A reminder from last year of the awesomeness that is Albert Pujols.
