Spring Training, Tampa 2008 (or...how many places are bigger than my apartment?)

Obviously, the sky is bigger....
This stall in the ladies room at the Tampa Airport is very close to being bigger than my apartment...The rental car is NOT bigger than my apartment (close)-
(note scooby doo sun visor that I got from Jose Jr's school fundraiser!)
Hibiscus at Legends Field , Tampa


Did I mention that I weigh as much as Jorge Posada? # 20!
Hip Hip! Jorge!

A leetle leezard...at the drive thru of the Steak & Shake... I stayed at a Ho Jo's....
Here is the FIRE ESCAPE PLAN on the inside of the door -
I belive the plan is to jump into the POOL....

My suitcase didn't get on the same flight as me, however, Delta did deliver it to my hotel by 10pm that night - but I stopped at PUBLIX for a few things and luckily could get some "Items for the Last Minute"..... the shaving cream is "hers" - in case some guy got confused and thought he might shave his face with 'Raspberry Mist" shaving cream?????

The back of the package listed these items - did I just shave my legs with toothpaste and mouthwash???!!!! Items for the last minute of what????!!!! Maybe it should be:
"packaging for the items not appearing in this package" at the last minute???

...random lady with hot dog - the sunlight was glistening off the ketchup - beautiful...Trying to even out my sunburn...The Joe Girardi Show is coming soon to the YES Network -
anyone know how I can get on the show!!!? (besides the fact that I weigh as much as Jorge Posada????) Feel free to comment....
The Yankees Win!Shalom! a Heberew Hot Dog - only $5.00?????????KEEP OUT!!! Do NOT try to get the autograph of this tree!!!!!!!!! I thought better of diving from the bridge after reading this Florida Statute:

Seriously bigger than my apartment, my suite at HoJo's...... THE POOL IS IN THE PARKING LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Leetle Leezard appears to have followed me from the Steak & Shake, to the pool in the parking lot... Wearing of the green for St. Patty's day! 3/17/08
At the Tampa airport - pretty nice sunburn...and a must-have: FLORIDA hoodie.Lucy is glad that I am back home!Had to bring a little vacation home.....Cotton Candy!


Happy Spring!!!!!! :)

And now for something completely awesome....

THE MALL OF MY CHILDHOOD..... (Shopping Mall, that is...)

While doing some research for one of my jokes - (names of Food Court restaurants...) I ran across a vintage photo of the mall of my childhood - Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove, NY oh yeah, that's on Long Island, of course! :)

Lake Grove, New York - circa 1970's

I found it on the "Malls of America" blog:
"Vintage photos of lost Shopping Malls of the '50s, '60s & '70s"

IN THE HEIGHTS - Broadway Musical!


I saw IN THE HEIGHTS on Broadway last night - it was awesome!
Really creative, touching, funny, talented cast - amazing choreography.
My friends and I came out of the theatre dancing!




In The Heights began as an original musical conceived by Lin-Manuel Miranda during his sophomore year at Wesleyan University. Upon graduating and returning home to New York, Miranda collaborated with director Thomas Kail to rework and restage the campus hit for a larger audience. That's how they captured the interest of producers Jill Furman, Kevin McCollum and Jeffrey Seller, whose previous work on Broadway included Rent, Avenue Q and The Drowsy Chaperone. After more workshops, more collaborators, and a stint at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre in Connecticut, the musical found a home at Off-Broadway's 37 Arts Theatre. Seven years after the idea was first born, In The Heights was ready for its New York theatrical debut.During its Off-Broadway run at 37 Arts, In The Heights quickly became an audience phenomenon and a critical success. The response was unprecedented; the musical was luring both traditional and non-traditional theatergoers and garnering a huge cache of accolades, including the Outer Critics Circle Award and the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical. After over 200 performances, In The Heights played its final Off-Broadway show on July 15th, 2007, in order to begin preparations for a move to Broadway.

MOSCOW CATS THEATRE

I ran across this picure of a cat wearing a dress, walking on a disco ball...and remembered that I actually saw The Moscow Cats Theatre in NYC - a couple of years ago with my friend Monica.

Totally surreal & hilarious!
