Can it be anything but a good omen when the Boston Red Sox win the season opener? Aha, but my older son and I will take care of that auspicious beginning this weekend when we head to Anaheim, Calif., for our annual trip to a Sox away game. Over the past few years, we have seen the Crimson Hose play in Toronto, Detroit, Minneapolis, and Chicago -- and they have lost in every city. We call ourselves The New Curse or, alternatively, The Two Bambinos. Nonetheless, we always have a great time, and this year it may even be greater because my younger son is also going. He cares nothing for baseball but does love Disneyland. So, win or lose, things should be grand. After all, we are staying at a Super 8.

The two dumbest things I ever did on the Internet (besides starting this blog) were reserving a rental car in Charlotte, N.C., when I was actually heading for Charleston, S.C., and negotiating with a car dealer I thought was located in Lynnfield, Mass., but was actually in Burlington, Vt., some 220 miles from my home.
