Well, the Ryan Rupe era in Boston took a real hit last night as the former Devil Ray gave up a three run homer that proved the difference in a 4-2 loss to the Chicago White Sox. At least he was smart enough to do this on the road.

My favorite news from yesterday: the EU has banned imports of prairie dogs from the US thanks to this monkey pox thing. And just what sort of market has been disrupted? According to an AP article:

"EU officials said about 1,000 prairie dogs are imported into the EU last year, mainly to the Netherlands where they are sold as pets or zoo attractions."

Zoo attractions I can see. But pets? If this is what legalized hash smoking gets you, I may be back on the War on Drugs bandwagon.
