Endocrinologists have always been fascinated by "Giants".....and, in these times, "The Giants" have been fascinated by things endocrinologic (ummmm....hormones). Guess I'll have to side with them. Sorry Larry.....could not pull for a buncha people who call themselves dodgers...what are they dodging anyways?
Closing on the property moved up to Monday! Good thing as this hotel living is not optimal. Folks here at the Stanyan Park Hotel did let me get the pipes out in the parlor today. Regs will need a little California adjustment.
They dodged streetcars in flatbush, if I remember the story, but then maybe not... but from Wiki:
..."Teams of this era played in two principal ballparks, Washington Park and Eastern Park. They first earned the nickname "Trolley Dodgers," later shortened to Dodgers, while at Eastern Park during the 1890s because of the difficulty fans (and players) had in reaching the ballpark due to the number of trolley lines in the area. The name "Trolley Dodgers" is recorded separately in two newspapers on September 3, 1895. [1] The club also engaged in a series of mergers during this period, acquiring the New York Metropolitans in 1888 for territorial protection and star contracts, merging with the Brooklyn Wonders in 1891 as part of the Players League settlement, and merging with the Baltimore Orioles (NL) in 1900 as part of the National League's consolidation of clubs...."
Richard, I've heard that designation. We'll have to take the lead of the NFC of the SCUPC and call ourselves the WBPCSFUPC....west bay piping contingent of the san francisco uilleann pipers club!
Larry..... just who is Nancy Pelosi? Hey....next time we're in LA I'd like for you to talk to Em about fencing. She loves the bed you rec'd.
Ya'll come to SF for the pipers meeting this Sunday. The bees will be buzzin'.
Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.
