There were many days that I worked late into the night to get that car finished in time, ... but at 5 p.m. on July 1, the car was started, tuned, and John drove it home. We had worked over 480 man-hours, but it was all worth it to see the smile on John's face. To work on a car like this is a dream.

The nylon-string guitar has no more powerful advocate on the current jazz scene than Ken Hatfield, whose virtuosic fingerstyle technique is matched by an exceptional compositional gift and who succeeds better than most at stretching the boundaries of his instrument while playing and writing music that feels as friendly and naturally straight-ahead as anything by Charlie Byrd or Wes Montgomery.

That's partly because the starting pitching has been much improved (17-9, 4.30 ERA) since the All-Star break. The most consistent pitcher of late has been lefthander Johan Santana, who was 4-2 with a 2.83 ERA since taking a permanent spot in the rotation on July 11. To help the Twins' other starters, who were frequently overthrowing, Anderson instructed them to throw only in the lower half of the strike zone during bullpen sessions between starts. He told them that he wants to see the catchers' mitts moving downward to receive every pitch during those workouts. If they're constantly throwing to the glove in the bullpen, ... then go into a game with the adrenaline pumping, everything they throw will go high in the strike zone.

We're deadly serious about our wine until it's in the bottle, and after that, it's all about having fun. We were one of the first to take this tack. We're really trying to demystify wine.
