She's Back!

All of us here at Alpha Tickets were very relieved on Friday when Ainu appeared again for her second post. While we were concerned that she may have killed herself after her inaugural blog it appears that she is only minorly disturbed and claims to find humor in the dark side of life. We here at Alpha Tickets can certainly appreciate the dark side of life since we work inside of it everyday. You can check out the warm currents blog at http://kuroshio.blogspot.com/.

If you read my blog from last week about forcing Nature's hand it seems to have worked. Temperatures here in the Southeast have come down by about ten degrees since I started drinking brown liquor again. Hell, it was even cool enough on Friday that I fished in the afternoon. I went out with my good and helpful friend Joel Pharr and we caught a slew of bass on a variety of different soft baits. I landed a 5lber on a YUM dinger! The world of soft plastic baits is an ever growing world and it includes some of the craziest product names. I will soon be devoting an entire blog to soft plastic baits for your amusement.

The Brickyard 400 is this weekend and we are in the late stages of covering orders. The event is following the same predictable pattern which is buy them at less than face and try like hell to get face out of them. If you have to send them to the street, May God Bless you, because more than likely they will come right back to you unsold like a boomerang.

The PGA Championship is almost here starting next Monday at Baltusrol in Springfield, NJ. The tickets for this event are also predictably below face with the exception being the Sunday ticket which is the only day that is sold out. The Sunday tickets are going for around $130 for the grounds pass which puts it significantly above face value. Tiger Woods is hot, can he do it again?

Until tomorrow - Adios!
