Was at Coney Island earlier this morning getting ready for the big Beach Opening event, which is on Thursday. Today I was putting up the 2004 Event Calendar posters that I made on all of the informational kiosks. So if you’re at Coney this summer and you see the good-looking promotional posters, know that it was all me!

As Cher said in “Moonstruck”... “I don’t believe in curses.” To which the old Sicilian woman replied, “Neither do I.” It’s obvious that neither of them are baseball fans. Because true baseball fans know the power of a curse. The plights of the Chicago Cubs and the Boston Red Sox are one example. Another is that no Mets pitcher will ever throw a no-hitter. Case in point – yesterday’s game. Tom Glavine came within 4 outs of a no-no, only to be denied. Through the years, the Mets have had many great pitchers... Tom Seaver, Dwight Gooden, David Cone. All of whom never threw a no-hitter for the Mets but did so later in their careers after they left the team. When I was a little kid I used to say that I would erect a statue in my frontyard of the first Met to throw a no-hitter. As the years go by, it seems that is one statue that will never be built.

“The Sopranos” was AMAZING last night. Full of action and drama! Perhaps one of the best episodes ever. Yet also disturbing. It culminated in the whacking of Adrianna, a regular since the series’ inception. Adrianna had been giving information to the FBI for the past two seasons and once the family found out... well let’s say she knew exactly what was going to happen as Sylvio drove her into the woods. It was also a noteable episode as Tony Soprano refused to hand Steve Buscemi’s character over to the rival mob boss for a retribution killing. Now it looks like full-fledged war between the two families. Or to put it another way : Johnny Sack said to Tony, “You Got Served!” To which Tony replied, “No, You Got Served!” To which they resolved, “It’s On!” Now if this were “South Park” it would culminate in a dance-off. Don’t think that’s gonna happen though...
