How was your weekend?  Mine was okay.  On Saturday, however, I did something incredible.  I dig out 500th booger!

It wasn't easy. Usually I have to wait til 9th inning, when the field is nice and dusty.  It helps if I have a cold.  I had been in booger slump for several weeks, so I was starting to get depressed.  Then on Thursday I got the sniffles.  I said to myself, "this weekend you will make history."

I knew this boogie was special. 500 boogs take a long time to find.  You need excellent technique. Getting a good boog requires not just perseverence, but patience!  Dig too hard, too early, and you have bloody nose!

But Manny's not done yet...I also plan to pursue A-Rod's ball-scratch record with a vengeance!
