Well...
This Milwaukee things seems like a pretty good gig. I'd be working from my apartment (in Milwaukee), and traveling around the countryside talking to good blue collar people about their insurance premiums. Something like a wandering insurance minstrel. Milwaukee is a beautiful town, what I saw of it today. They have Summerfest every year, if you don't know what that is it's the biggest music festival in the midwest, and you gotta love the magnificent Pabst brewery right in the middle of town. My sister says that the city constantly smells like beer, but since I'm hard of smelling I wouldn't really know.
BOSOX are up by three in the 8th!
I love the Cubs, but all true Cubs fans love the Red Sox as well. We consider them our sister team. Both of us are perennial losers, with the oldest parks in the majors, with fanatical fans, and both with so called curses. We have the Bartman/goat curse, they have the curse of the Bambino. Damn, I'm going to miss baseball when it's over.

I'm a Cardinals fan but I respect the Red Sox and think that there time has come. As for the Cubbies, well, I saw them in July at Wrigley Field and they were pretty ho-hum, but them I'm biased. Oh, and it was a day before the upper deck began crumbling and falling on people.
How can you see anyone in Wrigley Field and say it was "ho-hum?" You're talking about the Friendly Confines! It is, arguably, the best field in the world. Even when the Cubs lose, and being a Cubs fan for as long as I have this is a common occurance, it takes away part of the sting just being in Wrigley.
