  Saturday, August 07, 2004  Greg Maddux wins 300th game. To paraphrase Dana Carvey from the SNL 'CBS NFL halftime show during the 1987 lockout' spoof, "Hooray for him! Hooray for Greg Maddux."Oddly, one of the few memories I have of Greg Maddux during his first go-round as a Cub was his surrendering a towering grand slam deep onto Sheffield Avenue to Will Clark during the 1989 playoffs. Later, of course, he went to Atlanta as a free agent and became the most dominant control pitcher of the era. And then he went back to the Cubs, where he helped them win the World Series over Boston, giving mid-season acquisition Nomar Garciaparra sweet, sweet revenge. Or something like that. Or not. posted by Nate on 7:39 PM link Friday, August 06, 2004  Rick James found dead at age 56. "Today the world mourns a musician and performer of the funkiest kind," said Neil Portnow, president of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.

A new study says drinking half a bottle of wine a day can make your brain work better, especially if you are a woman.Unfortunately I am not a woman. However, I am a bit of a girly-boy, so maybe that last double scotch will improve my already-voluminous vocabulary. Voluminous. Heh heh, bitches! Pour me another. posted by Nate on 11:41 PM link Sunday, August 01, 2004  David Bowie healthy one month after heart surgery.posted by Nate on 7:23 PM link
