What an April Fools Day this has been. I unleashed a joke aimed at Palin-haters and other leftists, and I'm not sure if it was a success. I see a blog post claiming Dick Lugar will drop out of the Senate race and become President of the Boy Scouts (what a way to get a guy's hopes up!).
And to top it all off, Opening Day for the Cubs was today. They had a nice ceremony, which included a moment of silence for the late Ron Santo and the people of Japan, and Robert Redford throwing the 1st pitch of the game. The game started well for the Cubs, leading 2-0 against the Pirates after three innings.
At church, we have a softball team and this year will be my fourth year with the team, and most of the losses we have had can be attributed to one reason: one bad inning. For the Cubs, it came in the top of the 5th, with the Pirates getting a grand slam and taking the lead, 4-2. Two innings later, the Pirates extended their lead thanks to a 2-run homer, and the Cubs only scored once later in the inning before the game ended in a 6-3 victory for the Pirates.
Well, it's not the first time the Cubs have started the season with a defeat, and it's never good when the Cubs lose at Wrigley Field, but it's only the beginning of the season; there's 161 games to go, and anything can happen. Go Cubs Go!
I hope you all have been enjoying the day.
