CRANBERRY HIGHWAY — The flags around Cape Cod are at half mast. A boy from around here died in Afghanistan last week. On the way down through New Hampshire last week we shared a dodgy truck stop with a bus full of GIs. All unfailingly polite and… to a 43-year-old like me… young, small and [...] BREWSTER WHITECAPS — The flyball goes deep into centre-right field. Two guys run for it. Just at the last second one drop to his knees and almost upends his team-mate… who catches the ball. Play made. Two innings later, same team. Centre-left.

(I am a bit disappointed that with so many delays they only issued it this week, deep [...] DISTRICT LINE — There seems only to be bad news for kids these days. They are far more likely to get H1N1 flu. They have unemployment numbers that haven’t been seen in 15 years. And what do they see us doing about it? Not much. “Some of the jam we thought was for tomorrow, we have already eaten.”
LONDON — There is a real communication dilemma in H1N1 the so called Swine Flu (in countries where pigs are okay.) The question is what level of communication is the right level?
