A night to have a camera

Of all nights to not have a camera, this was the one. Tonight we went to the Astros game. It was honor the 1980 Astros night at Minute Maid park. I don't remember all the 1980s Astros in attendance, but here is a quick rundown of the one's i recall: Jose Cruz, Cesar Cedeno, Terry Puhl, Denny Walling, Craig Reynolds, Joe Morgan (and idiot announcer for ESPN now), Art Howe, Alan Ashby, Dave Smith, Joe Niekro, and the great Nolan Ryan. I think there might have been more there, but i don't recall...Now if i had a camera, i would have the photographic evidence of all in attendance!

Too bad my camera is being repaired. With my upcoming trip to Moscow, I will definitely want a camera to take. And recently, the camera has been acting up...i think the CCD might be going bad on it. But, luckily I bought the extended warranty through Best Buy. Hopefully, they will be able to repair it...otherwise, i'll be looking at a new camera for my trip. Of course, Best Buy will reimburse me if they can't fix it...

Another interesting thing happened at the game tonight...The first call, "Play Ball" was done by two boys from East Bernard -- the Mica brothers. It was weird to hear East Bernard over the loud speakers. Now, a camera wouldn't have helped me much here...other than to take a picture of the big screen as the boys announced "play ball"

And since the camera is in the shop, i don't have any pictures of my first painting, "Nine". Granted, you aren't missing anything, but i would like to get it out there for your viewing pleasure.

Well, the Astros did win and Oswalt got another win! Slowly, but surely the Astros are going to move up in the standings.
