Sara meets Al Bundy and Bill Clinton.  Toddy prophesies Armageddon, the end times for the earth without a rapture.  Shauna writes of daily miracles in coffee shops.  How did we get so lucky?  Blogs have done what no writing teacher has ever mastered: they've got people hooked on writing with passion on topics that matter to them.  Fortunately, for most of us, there seems to be an audience of one or two or seven, certainly enough to keep the juices flowing (not in a sexual way, mind you).  

So today I lift up for your consideration the Phillies, a team that's only won a World Series once, 28 years ago, a team whose fans are legion.  While it's true that the Tampa Bay team has never won a Series, they've only been trying for a mere decade.  Let's root together for the one-time miracle to repeat itself.
