The Goracle’s prize

Posted by Richard on October 15, 2007

My thoughts about Al Gore getting the Nobel Peace Prize? Well, I wasn't surprised. I wondered idly which was more inappropriate, Arafat getting the Peace Prize or Gore. For all his faults, Al Gore is not a murderous, corrupt, and depraved monster. On the other hand, Arafat was at least associated with something called a peace process (albeit perversely).

I suppose it comes down to this: awarding the Peace Prize to Arafat was an outrage; awarding it to Gore is merely a non sequitur.

Get the brooms ready

Posted by Richard on October 15, 2007

It was a cold, wet night in Denver, but the Rockies remained red hot. They just won their sixth straight playoff game 4-1, their 20th win in 21 games. In the first three games against the Dbacks, they've given up only four runs. They're one win away from a second sweep and the World Series. Wow.

Tonight's interesting baseball fact: the last team to win 19 of 20 after September 1 was the 1977 Royals, and Rockies manager Clint Hurdle played on that team.
