Frist to take on border bill first

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said yesterday that the Senate will tackle border security and interior immigration enforcement before turning to the broader question of immigration reforms and a guest-worker program. "It is a separate issue, but it's one that people understand," the Tennessee Republican said of border security. "It's an immediate issue, it needs to be addressed more aggressively, we need to do that."

This is only encouraging. While Frist doesn't sound nearly as clear on the border issue as Cong. Tom Tancredo (R-CO) does, he's apparently moving in a better direction - which is NOT what the administration really wants to see.

The current estimated Powerball lotter jackpot is $340 million dollars, with a cash value of about $164 million. It could very well be more by tonight's drawing. Don't think that I couldn't find a couple of dollars in the cupholder...

Pujols' monster shot forces another game

The Chief admits to being a long-time and unashamed Cardinals fan - listening to the Redbird games on KMOX at night when I was supposed to be sleeping, after getting a radio for my 8th birthday, A few years later it was walking a few blocks from home, hopping the Grand Avenue streetcar ($.25) to the OLD Busch Stadium (bleachers $2.75). Given that, how could I go for anyone else, eh?

St. L. Cards

Monday tonight's game, with Albert Pujols stealing the win from the Astros with his3-run homer, with 2 outs + two strikes in the bottom of the 9th inning has to be one of the classic moments of the game. As a long time Cards fan, what a moment! I guess it ws a moment for the Astros of course, too, but with a somewhat different quality.

Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win, but the Houston tesm dancing in their dugout during the 9th inning re-learned a fundamental lesson - the game ain't over until there's 27 outs!

It's not time to start tearing down Busch Stadium yet!
