What's Really Important

Yes, there may be a disasterous and tragic war in Iraq and a grave constitutional crisis at home. The economy is in the pits and fictitous times rule the day. But for today at least there is a scent of joy in Mudville. For today the baseball season begins. And let it be known that the paper of record, none other than the New York Times, predicts that the Los Angeles Dodgers will take first place in the Western Division of the National League. And with the energy generated from that prediction, we can, nay, we will, move forward in our fight to make this world a better place.
