Another Place I'd Like to Be

Though to be honest, it really won't be all that worthwhile for a couple months (that is, once it warms up a bit):



By the way, that's the fine young Twins hurler Francisco Liriano on the hill at the start of this clip (while rehabbing down on the farm with the Rochester Red Wings last year).

That's great-- I remember when this story originally appeared (in fact, a couple years later, my muddled mind wondered if Sid Fernandez wasn't the guy from the original story). I especially like the picture of Finch on the camel in front of the pyramids; it's practically surreal in its incongruity.
