I'm pretty thrilled about this week's quote from George Will; a conservative journalist and news paper columnist.
"The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised."
This week's annual Winter Meetings for baseball general managers in Nashville, Tennessee just ended today and the Mariners, like many teams, are coming home empty handed. I began the week advising Mariner fans to "brace yourselves for nothing to happen." I gave this advice because over the last few years, we have been disappointed time after time with bad trades, no trades, bad free agent signings, and no free agent signings to the point where I've come to expect this type of thing from our front office. Now that I'm at the point of pessimism, I have experienced one of its two sides; I've been proven right. When given the choice, I would rather be pleasantly surprised ten times out of ten; but that's not how surprises work. That said, I'm not at all surprised that we came away from the Winter Meetings with the same players we went in with and I hope that Bavasi and Co. will "pleasantly surprise" me before the season begins. Until that happens, I guess I will continue to be a pessimist and use the front office's track record as a means of predicting the future only to more than likely be proved right.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
Mike
