Hey Yardbarkers,
It feels good to finally have this blog up and running. I would have started a few days ago, but I haven't been able to get to my computer.

David Wells went Africa this off-season, and all he did was hunt and eat exotic animals. If this isn't a man of the people, I don't know who is! With Maddux peeing on rookies, and now this, the Padres are really the team to watch!

This afternoon I sat by the side of the road, waiting for the crosstown bus. I sat there for what seemed like forever, but was probably no longer than 20 minutes. I finally got so impatient that I crouched next to the bus stop sign, counting the seconds between a car appearing around the bend and it passing me. I also got to thinking...
