Victory! – One-Hundred Eleven

Can we lock up and get drunk now please? — Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

Well hell. At 6:58 PM Pacific Time in Reno, Nevada while staring out the window at a psychedelic clown with a pulsating lollipop I saw the Philadelphia Phillies win the World Series.

Seriously. Is there a better moment than this?

One of the happiest moments of my life was late in the night on October 27, 2004 when I heard the celebrations in Boston on the phone. How spectacular was talking to fellow sufferers on October 29, 2008?

It’s been a good decade.

Philly rules! Michael Nutter did fix the Phillies. The Rays were finally supressed.

Now I’m going to go and wrestle senior citizens for food and drink. Like the wise man says, “Can we lock up and get drunk now please?”
