Time to Move On

We had great plans once upon a time, didn’t we? Grand hopes for the future.

I had Dustin Hoffman in my head last night.  The Rain Man:

Elimination game.  Yeah. Ten left on base.  Yeah.  Got to go get Leake, Dusty.  Yeah.  Runners in scoring position.   Bad.  Yeah.  Elimination Game.  Yeah.
