So there I was, driving to pick up my Brother at the Queen Mary (where he has a couple of retail businesses) then on to the Dodger game (nearby just beyond downtown Los Angeles) - a short 50+ mile one way trip in rush hour traffic! Game time 7:10pm.

We're listening to Rick Monday (Dodger radio announcer and former Dodger outfielder) on the car radio, as he tells us - after we have been in the several blocks long line before you get to enter the parking lot - that the Game is SOLD OUT! We of course were going to buy our tickets at the Gate and ya know what? There was only ONE GUY selling tickets on the street and he was 10 blocks back! So we drove down the hill to Phillipe's (the 100 year old restaurant where french dip sandwich's were invented)had some dinner (my 900th time to go there) then on home, all the while the Terrible pitcher WOLFE (who the team touts as one of the new starters this year and a good one) proceeds to give up 6 runs and 10 hits, all the while the manager leaves him in 5+ innings! As I'm SCREAMING AT THE RADIO IN THE CAR TO TAKE HIM OUT! This year that pither, and the first string third baseman Wilsom Betemet BOTH need to be dumped dowm to AAA ball - what's the phrase? Oh yea, they SUCK! We've got a hotshot named Valdez who's great both on offense AND defense - who has out shined Betemet every single time they've played him ... my thinking is both Wolf and Betemet must have 'something' on someone higher up in the Dodger organization, who is protecting their jobs!

We're gonna go to the afternoon game tomorrow instead (to celebrate Siete de Mayo - my upcoming birthday)... now that WOLFE knocked us out of first place.

Our May newsletter got out this morning and I've just finished my review of our website's April stats ... after a lot of SEO done in April, our unique visitor numbers were up more than 20% in April! I liked that.
