This blog is basically about Liz and I and our adventures as a young a married couple.  The tag line of course refers to our teamwork to make the proverbial dream work.  But there’s more to that quote…

Back in the 1980′s somebody had an idea.  People love athletes.  People love pop music.  And so the Superbowl Shuffle was born.  The New York Mets, who are of course near and dear to my heart, thought this terrible terrible idea…was brilliant!  The Mets have a long and storied musical tradition tracing all the way back to their origins and the fantastic Meet the Mets song.  And while the 1986 Let’s Go Mets video is not their worst musical adventure [see Who Let the Met's Out], it’s still pretty bad.

I’m not entirely sure what’s most ridiculous:  Joe Piscipo?  Gary Carter’s white sports jacket – does he think it’s an episode of the Love Boat?  And don’t forget Kevin Mitchell in the full blue jumpsuit right next to him.  How about all the mustaches?  Were there really that many mustaches in 1986??

In any case, we borrowed the one decent part of the whole disaster for the blog.  It seemed to fit.

“Lets Go Mets Go…We’ve got the team work, to make the dream work.  Let’s Go!”

I hope you enjoyed my first real blog entry.

Cheers.

Some things you’ll probably see soon include photos from our recent trip to Switzerland and photos from Mets opening day at the new Citi Field.

Some predictions for our new blog:

• Elizabeth will post more than I will.
• My posts will mostly be about sports, or computers.
• Elizabeth or I will retract at least one post at some point in time.
• I will probably do something to make the whole thing crash while trying to “make it better”.

Stay tuned, more to come…
