When was the last time you were truly disconnected from the world?  I mean no Internet, no TV, no Rays? 

IT SUCKS!  It is unbelievable that I survived, for four days.  Some would argue that it was good for me, that I should relish the slower pace and learn to enjoy things more.  To them I would say “rubbish.”  I like my computer.  I like having so much information at my finger tips.  I luuuv my shiny new TV, and I can freely admit that it has ruined me forever.  I don’t care.  Give me HD or give me death.

The Rays did just fine in my absence.  They didn’t win the world series, but they won the mid-season inter-league series against the Phillies.   Is that worth something?  Then they swept the Marlins, and tonight they beat the Blue Jays.  Sounds like good times, wish I could have been there.

So I’m reconnecting just in time to let you know that I’m taking off for my annual summer vacation.  I live in Florida, we have to wait until the rest of the country warms up before we go on vacation.  Luckily this vacation I will still be connected to the world, but I won’t be in Rays country anymore.  Think of this as my all-star break. 

I hope to see the Rays continue to climb the standings, and don’t worry I’ll pop in once in a while.  Go Rays!
