Today I took several pictures of the Texas Medical Center and The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. I plan to take even more, but I have provided several offerings on this here blog. Today was yet another beautiful day. It started off with very beautiful but dense clouds. But they burned off by noon and left Houston with one of the most beautiful and cool days of the year. There is no question fall is here (which makes me very happy). Anyway, the TMC is a spectacular place to learn how to be a doctor. When this is all said and done, I will be able say without hyperbole that I trained at the finest medical center in the world. I hope you enjoy the images.
In other news, the Astros lost again to the Cards. It was one of those classic games with the cold rain falling, lots of homeruns, and lots of outbursts from someone in the TV room who claims St. Louis teams as his own. Too mad the Astros can't seem to close the deal in the playoffs. Oh well, they'll give it a try in Houston this weekend.
Currently on ESPN2, The Worldwide Leader in Sports, there is a high school football game. Southlake Carroll and Denton Ryan high school are playing one another on national television in a competition of two major North Texas powerhouses. Southlake is a nice area between Fort Worth and Dallas, while Denton is about 35 minutes north of Dallas. Carrol is the number one ranked high school football team in the country and will retain that distinction after tonight. They are ahead 45-27 with 6 minutes to go in the fourth quarter. Friday Night Lights indeed. But who needs Odessa and Midland when you have Dallas/Fort Worth?
Finally, tonight was good for television. David Letterman had Billy Crystal on and Jay Leno had Robin Williams on. These four people are among the greatest comics of their era. I grew up watching all four in television and film and greatly respect their talent. It's cool to see them still making people laugh.

What allows us to face that the Cards did indeed win is that the fact still remains: they do, after all, still live in St. Louis, which is payback enough: it's a trade off if you ask me.
PS: I HEART BEN TAUB.
PS AGAIN: By far, the most aesthetically pleasing hospital in the med center is Texas Children's Hospital, built, literally, for little people. Inside and out it's beautifully done, with exotic fishtanks on every floor, cool giant giraffes and playgrounds with railroads and zebras on every corner. the surg residents & I agree: the congenital heart surgery floor has the best view in the medical center, hands down. Just an FYI. I'd love to see pics of that posted on your blog. :)
