I feel for you, RR! May you be in Kenmore Square when the Red Sox <blank> in a week and change. ;)

PS: (I couldn't bring myself to say the "w" word for fear of jinxing it.)

10. That sucks
I remember when Canada won gold in Hockey in 2002. They were showing pics from all over Canada's cities. Like 40,000 people in Downtown Vancouver....and I was stuck in some tiny burg.
