The fall classic is well worth the wait
Recently I said autumn is my
favourite time of the year, because
of the nice cool weather, but
there is an even bigger . reason
why I enjoy this time of year.
It's about baseball and the fall
classic.
The fall classic of course
being the playoffs and the
World Series. It is especial
ly great when my team, the
Boston Red Sox, are in the
thick of things.`And knock
on -wood they are just a few weeks,
away from claimingthe American
League wild : card spot.
For people who think baseball is
boring,they
have obviously never
experienced the playoffs before.
It's do or die in the playoffs. The
eight teams that make it, want more
than anything to make it to the
World Series. Theythrough
h
played layed ,
a gruelling 162 game - regular sea-
son to give themselves the chance
to be world champions.
The thing that crakes baseball so
exciting is the anticipation for that
one big play and when it comes, it
is heart pounding and exhilarating.
It's especially exciting if it's your
team that makes the amazing catch
or -its the walk off homerun.
This all came full circle for me in
2004 . when after an 86 year.
drought, the Red Sox came
back from being down 3 - O' in
the ALCS to their hated rivals,
the New York Yankees.
The Sox came back in
impressive style stealing
the pennant from them and
rolling into the World
Series with a quick four
game sweep of the St.
Louis Cardinals.
It's a great feeling when your
team `: wins it all and it was gravy
when they did it again in 2007. I'm
hoping for big things in the playoffs
from my Red Sox team as I can't
wait to see them in the big show.
once again.
Autumn is also a good thin
because it's the start of the
season. Speaking about droughts;
thy Toronto Maple Leafs haven't
won the Stanleysince 1 67
o Cup �
and it's about time they : broke
through and won it all. However,
I'm realistic and it will take them a
few. more years under the helm of
Brian Burke to become a cup con-
tender.
For now I'd just like to sge my
Leafs make the playoffs.

Any attempt to- meet with our
local MPP Carol Mitchell over the
past year has met with a dead end.
The council of Ashfield-Colborne-
Wawanosh has been very helpful,
especially councillor Barry Millian
but they have no power over the
conservation authorities. We are
currently dealing with the Ministry
of Natural Resources in an attempt
to find a satisfactory solution.
We know we are not alone. I
strongly advise you to check with
your local building inspector to see
if the MVCA has first say over any
permits which you might need.
Then you need to find out what the
floodproofing levels are in your
area. I can assure you, you will be
shocked.

In 2006, the province passed Bill
