NOVEMBER
1, 2004 --
If
a lot fewer than a million workers were in
Washington D,C, for the Million Workers March, October 17 (where LPR noticed
a Federalist 57-type comment on the back of one T-shirt), a lot more than a
million
people were reported to have attended the victory march in Boston, October
30, of the World Champion Red Sox.

LPR was outside
Fenway Park for games 1 and 2 of trhe World Series. Parking enforcement
personnel made LPR feel right at home with a parking ticket before
game 2, after LPR got a photo of James Taylor, who had just rehearsed
the national anthem.

And LPR snapped
a photo of a jubilant Red Sox fan after the second game win over the
St. Louis Cardinals. LPR then entered Fenway Park, taking some photos,
including one of Shana observing the inside-the-park post-game excitement.

Before game one,
LPR got a photo of avid Sox fan David Millette, now living in Key
West Florida, who had slept outside the ballpark in hopes of buyng
a ticket to the game at the team's ticket window. The next day,
LPR learned that Mr. Millette, succeeded in getting a grandstand
ticket, paying, as the ticket indicates, $145.

Returning to Boston,
October 28, LPR
again saw Mr. Millette, learning that his camper had been towed the previous
day, and that he had been arrested in connection with the towing -- both incidents
were unjust, he indicated.

the Curse" t-shirt.

If the Bambino's
curse has been reversed (LPR believes it now applies to the New
York Yankees -- for considering plans to leave "The House that Ruth Built")
- apparently the curse of the tow trucks remains widespread.

This

after Boston swept the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals,
seems to show a smile on the face of
the greatest Red Sox player ever that might not have been apparent before
the Bosox won the 2004 baseball
championship of the world.
