I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you about my town
I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it's all about my town
Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles (aw, that's what's happenin' baby)
That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, fuggers, and thieves (aw, but they're cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, you're the Number One place)
Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren't locked (I like to save time for
my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)
Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)
Well, I love that dirty water (I love it, baby)
I love that dirty water (I love Baw-stun)
I love that dirty water (Have you heard about the Strangler?)
I love that dirty water (I'm the man, I'm the man)
I love that dirty water (Owww!)
I love that dirty water (Come on, come on) [fade]
All rightttttttttt
The Standells----first song I learned on guitar
Didja know that if you type Darth vader Yankees into Google, the top return is this topic??
why's that? curious folks?
We have good search engine optimization here.
Anyone else notice the quick pan to Stephen King when Tom Gordon first got up to pitch? Thought that was quite appropriate.
schilling's doing the top 10 on letterman tonight...
I can't have another late night region - I think I'll have to tape it.
great <YAWN> idea, linkat!
Hey Reeg, turn the light off. We're tryin' to sleep over here!
novembers were tailor-made for sleeping -- especially when the turkey... coma... sets in... zzzzzzzzzzz
Everybody's tired after this week:
I see a lot of praise to the guys that predicted Sox in seven. Not only did I predict that, but I told you all how they'd do it! I predicted the gutsy Schilling preformance and the 2 game 7 Damon HRs.
Sorry for forcing that issue, but I'm a bastard and I want praise too.
There, there Child...if you're so smart...why ain't you rich?
Good call.
People all around are tired (and many are hung over). It's so funny. And we have another series to get through.
There's an aussie guy at my sister's work who is here from the Amsterdam office for a litle while. He's been here before and had formed an opinion of Bostonians that, he said, was totally changed after last night. He thought of us, as many do, as very reserved and like we sort of hate one another (hehehe). But, last night we were as one - all of us.
we get waaaay happy when our sports teams winnittall...
botson.com also has articles about the mayhem that ensued. I hadn't really heard about any of it until just now. I did hear that students in western mass lit a pond on fire.
For those like me, who finally needed a good night's sleep here is Letterman's top ten list:
Top Ten Secrets To The Boston Red Sox Comeback presented by Curt Schilling
10. Unlike the first three games, we didn't leave early to beat the traffic.
9. We put flu virus in Jeter's gatorade.
8. Let's just say Pete Rose made some phone calls for us.
7. We asked Pokey Reese to be a little less pokey.
6. It's not like we haven't won a big game before--it's just been 86 years.
5. Honestly, I think we were tired of hearing about the Patriots.
4. The messages of encouragement Martha sent on prison napkins.
3. We pretended the baseball was Letterman's head.
2. What'd you expect--we have a guy who looks like Jesus!
1. We got Babe Ruth's ghost a hooker and now everything's cool.
