            Ultimate hooky…a mid-week day baseball game with my best friend and his family and friends for his birthday.  We watch the Houston Astros lose at home 5 to 4 to the Pittsburg Pirates, the tying run left on base in the bottom of the ninth and the final out coming on a close play at first.  Foot long hotdogs, cold beer, peanuts and Cracker Jacks.  I am shown how to keep proper score.  I save the mustard stained sheet for future reference.
