I like Mike

My friend Mike DiMauro is a sports columnist at The Day, a newspaper in New London, Conn., that consumed years of my life.

In fact, Mike will tell you I was the one who convinced he wanted to become a sports columnist. It involved a column about the hot dogs at Palmer Field in Middletown, Conn. Enough said about that.

Fact is, Mike is a danged good columnist. Onply problem is he's a life-long Yankee fan (he grew up in Middletown, Conn., and had he lived maybe three miles east, he would have been on our side of the Connecticut River, and therefore a Red Sox fan.

The point is he posted this gem today.

Is there any other team that would refer to a season as "The Impossible Dream" that ultimately ended in failure?

Gotta love it.

Plans for moving . . . .

Thanks to everyone who has responded.

There is still time to get in on this funscapade. Let me know if you can help.

We will be trying to move as much as we can tomorrow night, then finish up on Saturday,

5 p.m.-ish start Friday (I know some people won't be here quite then).

I have Tat and Ruth with vehicles for Friday. LT is going to meet us on the other end.

For Saturday, I have Tat and Chrystie with vehicles. 9 a.m. start perhaps, but we will negotiate tomorrow.

Tat: When will the minions be available?
