In one week, it’s going to be November 1. High school football season is starting to wrap up their regular football season and college football is half over but they are still playing baseball, a summer game. In the old days, the World Series used to be played the first week in October when it should be played.

The season started late because of the strike.

When I was a kid the WS was played in September. The winner of the American League played the winner of the National League. No playoffs like we have now which adds to making the season longer.
Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

I hope it snows a foot in Philadelphia and stays on the ground for a month. Why do you hope that?
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.
