On With the Show

This day has begun inauspiciously (gee, haven't used that word in a while!). It's cloudy and bleak. Looks like it could rain again. Dickie and I did manage to get our morning walk in. They're expecting rain in St. Louis tonight, too, for the third game of the World Series which I'm hoping the Cardinals will win. My team kind of got creamed up there in Boston. Maybe some home-cooking will do them some good.

There's not much to report around here today. We tried to get some flu shots yesterday, but the place was so mobbed we decided to skip it for the time being. Hope we don't live to regret that.

I've been working on my November web page and reading a good book, "The Plot Against America" by Philip Roth. Watched the last half of "The Lost Prince" on PBS last night. It's the story of Prince John, the brother of King George V. Here's a link, if you want to know more: http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/lostprince/matthew_thomas.shtml .
