Everything you ever wanted to know about samurai can be found at the Samurai Archives.

What can I babble about? I cannot believe the Rockies traded Larry Walker for stiffs like Matt Williams and Erubiel Durazo, plus assorted swag.

It was good for the kids, and good for me to get away and actually DO something useful.
