today is thursday 05 june 2003.
it seems funny to me how people tell you to do things which in fact are things they like to do. especially in dealing with issues like finding God's will--when seeking advice from other people, people tell you what God's will is for them (not you)!
for example, a friend of mine tells me to get a different type of vehicle. my theory is his suggestion for me to get a flashier car is really him wanting a flashier car for himself. i know a toyota corolla is not the flashiest car out there, but my green corolla does a fine job for me. several weeks he has been telling me to get rid of the corolla to get a flashier car. this week i turn the tables and suggest that he get a corolla (because the corolla is what i want).
so this same buddy is at a rental car place, and ironically the rental car place assigns him a toyota corolla. and the agent nicely tells him, "you'll now know why people love these things!" i tell my buddy that this is perhaps God's will and by God's divine providence and subtle hints to get a corolla!
to the dodgers: tough loss for nomo . . . brown on deck tonight.
on to sammy sosa: yeah, his image is tarnished. but hitting homeruns requires pretty clean contact with the ball--it's hard to deny that it's a pretty difficult feat to make such pretty clean contact over 500 times in a career.
