happy birthday hitler

One hundred and sixteen years ago hitler was born in Braunau, Austria and i just got home from a great baseball game here in St Louis, Missouri, USA: Cards vs. Cubs. I went with a group of friends from work and a couple of them were Cubs fans. (Boo) It rained for a while and delayed the game, but not for long. Cards had a decent defense but all of their hits were fired straight at Cub gloves the entire game. Cubs were up 3 to 1 for the latter half of the game and in the bottom of the ninth with one man on base, the Cards hit a huge fly out to center field. It looked like it was going to make it over, but it just didn't have enough juice. What a great game.
