    Last night Alan Ross and his wife were in town. My wife and I joined them for dinner in an an up and coming new restaurant in Philly. It's always great to catch up with friends.

    Indeed she did. I lost a $.25 bet and paid it off. I was able to locate a 1908 quarter to pay off the debt. That was the last time the Cubs won a WS. It was fun making that happen.

    The payoff quarter, date 1908 the last time the Cubs won a World Series. It was worth the bet to find this for Bonnie:
