I really can't believe it. The MN Twins have made the playoffs. They have played great baseball the last 4 months, but even more incredibly, the Chicago White Sox have caved more than Carlsbad Caverns. I guess that it wasn't to be unexpected, they barely hung on last year when the Cleveland Indians were trying to get into the playoffs (they too caved, but let's face it, we all knew they weren't going to make it.) The playoffs are less than a week away, and it seems as if we will be playing the Yankees. Time to get out my Yankees Toilet Paper!

I'm told if your into TV shows like Lost, 24, the 4400, you would probably like NBC's Heroes. Well, I've watched a total of 2 Lost episodes, 4 or 6 24 episodes, and none of the 4400. However, I do love superheroes. So far, the pilot episode doesn't disappoint. Personally, my favorite is Hiro, and his new found ability to manipulate space/time. Very cool. The tempo was a bit slow, but basically, all they had time to do is introduce all the characters and set up a basic story line. (Scientist dies, son goes to NYC to find research, bunch of superheroes start showing up, bad guy involved.) Yup, pretty basic story. I almost think of this as X-men light.

By the way X3: Last Stand is coming out next Tuesday. It was on my list to watch this summer, but we never got around to it. Anyway, it looked cool, and a bunch of my students loved it. (Some even saw it 4 times in the theatre.)

The MN Vikings have come down to Earth and lost a game. No shocker. However, I really didn't think that the Chicago Bears are as good as they had been hyped.
