There’s a complete absence of philosophy in this post. But there is a picture of the Red Sox World Series trophy, which might be more important!

On the way back from Boston yesterday, Ishani and I discovered that the World Series trophy would be in Framingham, which we were about to drive through. So we stopped to see it, and stand in slack-jawed amazement that we were in the presence of a World Series trophy, _won by the Red Sox_. There was a queue of people waiting to get their picture taken with the trophy. We were too late to get tickets to the queue, but Ishani managed to get us in without a ticket! And so we had this picture taken.

Just why we look so scared is not particularly clear. Because there were so many people we didn’t get a chance to have multiple photos – it was one and done. (Unlike the Red Sox, fingers crossed.) So I was a bit scared of looking silly. So I looked scared. It’s still a photo with the trophy.

OK back to philosophy – or at least Goodman class preparation – now.
