today is sunday 04 june 2006.

yeah, teaching algebra 1 is wild . . . question number 27 on friday's test is name the property for -8(-5+3)=(-8)(-5)+(-8)(3) . . . best answer is "divination." of course it is.

another mystical thing is the national league west . . . so this week, arizona and the dodgers are still streaking, and the rockies are slowly fading away. the rox have fallen to last, one game below .500 . . . my prediction of 96 games is fading like a vegetation in the colorado heat. at this rate, the rox may win 75.

the dodgers are a different story. i'm listening to vin scully, and the big difference this year is all the guys contributing like ethier, aybar, and guzman--they have risen from the minors and done well in the majors.

hadj has an interesting take on the single servings of twinkies . . . should we call them just a twinkie because they are now alone . . . more pressing problem is the ding dong . . . and what about them ho ho(s)? this is problematic.

the dodgers are coming back to colorado this week . . . so all those wanting to come to the game--meet me at 6:00!
