Austin - Hot!

Just back from Austin, and it reminds me, despite the consistency of the raving reviews from its inhabitants, that Texas is not a place for me. Hot. Hot. Hotter. And humid. And sure, who doesn't like barbeque every now and again, but it's hardly a culinary specialty on which cultural reputations should be built. Every time I step foot outside the Bay Area it reminds me that there is, quite simply, no better place to live.

Oh, and with the All-Star break on the horizon, a few days off beckoning for most Giants players, they prove in the last couple of days against the Mets that they've been flattering to deceive with their fiesty young gun approach. Bring back Bonds. Bring back Bonds. Etc.
