Mike Lowell rounds the bases in 2007 World Series Game 4

The Boston Red Sox won their 2nd Major League Baseball World Series in four years tonight!!! Congrats Red Sox!!!

And my favorite Red Sox all season 3rd baseman Mike Lowell won MVP!!! Great going Mike!

RE-SIGN LOWELL!!!!

The whole thing was best summed up by Red Sox pitcher Jon Lester (who pitched 5 2/3 innings in WS Game 4) last night, "I got beer dripping down my butt and I got this thing in front of me," he said, lifting the WS trophy. "This is great!"

McFreed Quote of the Week Oct 22 - 26

nobody@vox.com(Sean & Stefan) — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 14:31:28 -0700

Sean and Stefan say...

This is too hard to ignore anymore! Stefan's mom, Carolyn, has a great line and variations thereof that has dominated our lexicon for months. The comment comes from long ago when Carolyn responded to a query of Stefan's about Madonna.

"She doesn't shock me; she just nauseates me!"

QotD: Worth Your Money

nobody@vox.com(Sean & Stefan) — Sat, 20 Oct 2007 07:59:21 -0700

What are some things that are worth (and not worth) spending money on?
Submitted by pinejar.

The one thing worth spending money on is a vacation. No matter how much it costs, the return on memories and having experienced it yourself is priceless.

From time to time we will be highlighting one quote of the week that truly deserves recognition for its brilliance. This week's winner comes from McFreed favorite Wilhelmina Slater (aka Vanessa WIlliams) of Ugly Betty fame:

Happy National Coming Out Day!

nobody@vox.com(Sean & Stefan) — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 12:37:26 -0700

Sean says...

October 11 is National Coming Out Day!

I came out in Dec 1995 at the age of 25 to my former college roommates Tim, Chris and Dawn. "I guess Amy was right," was the first response from my friend Chris. My college ex-girlfriend had been elected the first straight board member of my university's GLBT student group and had said in her interview with the student newspaper that all the men she ever dated ended up being gay. How funny right??? It's 12 years later and I wonder why I waited so late.

What is your tale?

When celebrities go insane...

nobody@vox.com(Sean & Stefan) — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 15:01:07 -0700

Sean says...

Stefan and I caught this next video clip on E!'s The Soup and had to share it! Watching Elizabeth Taylor in this clip has me envisioning a cute and adorable dog suddenly turning rabid and mean! Your vote? Taylor has done some great movies, some horrible ones, and is just overexposed and overrated at times - but she has done a lot for AIDS research which cannot be ignored. However, something this crazy has to be celebrated on by your McFreeds! So on with the show!

Elizabeth Taylor...um... comments

Never fear, I (Sean) have mastered at least the vocal imitation of this for your later amusement! Enjoy!

Vox Hunt: Hope for the Future

nobody@vox.com(Sean & Stefan) — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 20:40:49 -0700

Show us a politician who gives you hope.

Robert Kennedy

"Some men see things as they are and say 'Why?' I dream things that never were and say, 'Why not?'"

Robert Kennedy might be a man behind us in history and subject to revisionist discussion of his flawed personal life and political ethics prior to 1963, but he is a man who's words have always inspired me when it comes to injecting hope into politics and life. His use of the quote above (originally penned by George Benard Shaw) throughout his run for the presidency in 1968 and the cadence in which he spoke it, has always made me hope about America and even the world.

I am older and less naive now, but there are many days that I hope people will open their eyes and say 'Why not?' But it seems that it is more important lately for politicians and ourselves to answer the safer questions and not the hard ones that end with 'Why not?' I know I have retreated to the safety zone too many times in life or cowarded behind a rationalization that was purely flawed in its masking of the truth.

So I retain my hope with the echo if Kennedy's borrowed words in my head and anxiously await when I can be brave enough to tackle his eternal "Why not?". I know fulfillment awaits me ahead when I actually do.

A few more words from RFK:

“Some believe there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills -- against misery, against ignorance, or injustice and violence. Yet many of the world's great movements, of thought and action, have flowed from the work of a single man. A young monk began the Protestant reformation, a young general extended an empire from Macedonia to the borders of the earth, and a young woman reclaimed the territory of France. It was a young Italian explorer who discovered the New World, and 32 year old Thomas Jefferson who proclaimed that all men are created equal. 'Give me a place to stand,' said Archimedes, 'and I will move the world.' These men moved the world, and so can we all.”
