Rear Window Ethics: September 2004
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2004_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 26, 2004. While desperately sucking water out of a fountain at the park today, I had time to ponder over my feelings on the ever-present, "Yankees Suck" cheer. (Or jeer, as it were). My first thought is that this cheer is simply the Sox version of New York's "1918! Gibes It is rather base, annoying, and in the former epithet's case, clearly untrue. Today "Yankees Suck! Cheers went up all around me, and the scattered New York fans turned around to yell back "26! Am I becoming a Sox fan?

Rear Window Ethics: August 2004
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2004_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2004. So long, farewell, adieu to yieu and yieu and yieu. It's been a while since I wrote anything here, mainly because the time spent since my last post can best be described in a few words. On a completely separate note, I have a funny story to tell here. The names of those involved will not be used, because I haven't asked them if I can write this. It's actually not even someone I know that well, but it is a pretty great story. Here it goes:. Posted by Travis @ 12:33 PM. Nish and I ...

Rear Window Ethics: October 2004
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2004_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2004. This is pretty hard to believe. Posted by Travis @ 10:24 PM. I just got a call from my friend Tali, who is working in D.C for the year but was flown to South Dakota to work on Tom Daschle's Senate re-election campaign in what has turned out to be a very close race. I'm proud of her for just jumping out there and doing something she's never done before, as well as going somewhere she's never been before to do it. In Wisconsin, a flier is circulating in Milwaukee's black neighborh...

Rear Window Ethics: February 2005
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2005_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 27, 2005. Live-Blogging: 77th Academy Awards (Oscar Blog). 8:20 - The show hasn't started yet, obviously, but I'm already in front of the television with my ballot sheet in hand. We'll see how far I go in the family pool this year. I feel quite confident a lot of the pics, generally. 8:30 - I can't believe they make all those people clap while the ads are going on the screen. It must be dubbed in. 8:36 - Cue P-Diddy looking uncomfortable. 8:44 - So in this new "speedy" Oscar plan, nomine...

http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2007/10/boston-community-boating-sail-season.html
Wednesday, October 24, 2007. Boston Community Boating Sail Season. The end of this month marks the end of the Community Boating 2007 season. If you're new to Boston or just looking for something new and fun to do during next year's fair-weather months, do yourself a favor and go down for a free orientation to the program. You can't get a kind of deal like anywhere in Boston. So go check it out, either before they close on 10/31, or when they open up in April. Posted by Travis @ 9:43 AM. This work is lice...

Rear Window Ethics: Commercial Pilots Fall Asleep Mid-Flight!
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2007/11/commercial-pilots-fall-asleep-mid.html
Friday, November 02, 2007. Commercial Pilots Fall Asleep Mid-Flight! I can't figure out whether this makes me sympathetic to pilots unions - given that the incident was due to a taxing schedule of four 8-hour red eye flights in a row, or whether it makes me pissed off at the pilots unions - your job is to not fall asleep in a metal can going 600 mph at 30,000 feet, people! DENVER - Two commercial pilots allegedly fell asleep on a flight between Baltimore. Posted by Travis @ 9:33 AM. Just 1 More Win, Sox!

Rear Window Ethics: Red Sox: ALCS Champs!
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2007/10/alcs-champs.html
Monday, October 22, 2007. Red Sox: ALCS Champs! What a series, what a game, what a ride. It's really eerie the way this post-season has mirrored 2004. A crushing sweep of the Angels in the ALDS. A rough stretch through the ALCS ending in a streak of wins to grab the series. You can't say enough about Josh Beckett's performance in October. 3 Wins, 26Ks, 1.17 ERA, 0.61 WHIP. Ridiculous! His start in Game 5 absolutely turned the series. Clearly the MVP, even with Youkilis' outstanding work at the plate.

Rear Window Ethics: World Series Game 1
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2007/10/world-series-game-1.html
Thursday, October 25, 2007. World Series Game 1. That was just total domination. I know it was probably our best scenario - what with Beckett as nasty as that and the hitters still locked in from last series - but if we could get something like that even once more we'd be in great shape. Granted, Colorado may have had some rust on their bats, but the way Beckett was throwing he could have silenced almost any offense in baseball. Wins needed for free couch: 3. Labels: Boston Red Sox. Red Sox: ALCS Champs!

Thursday, November 01, 2007. TDS: Cupcakes are Killing our Kids! Rob Riggle explains why exploding rates of child obesity and diabetes can all be traced back to. cupcakes. Anti-freeze and cupcakes have a lot in common. They both taste great, they both have fun colors. One will kill you today, and the other will kill you years from now, but the end result is the same.". 4 out of 5 children chose to poison themselves with cupcakes instead of antifreeze.".

Rear Window Ethics: Just 1 More Win, Sox!
http://rearwindowethics.blogspot.com/2007/10/just-1-more-win-sox.html
Sunday, October 28, 2007. Just 1 More Win, Sox! What a great night for the young guys! Pedroia and Ellsbury: 7/10 with 4 RBI. Round it out with another good night for Lowell, and the Sox are one game away from winning it all. Boston's hitting in this series is so timely. Very different from the first half of the ALCS. There was a scary moment when Colorado came within one, but just in time we tacked on some insurance in the next frame. Things happen for a reason. Maybe it's John Lester's turn to shine.
