Monday in New York. Gee, how much I missed this city! It's so weird to be back here as a visitor. I'm staying in downtown New York... actually right next to the Ground Zero. But it's really bizarre to see so many tourists down here. Who would've thought the Ground Zero would become a tourist attraction?

Tomorrow, I'm going to the Mets game vs. San Diego Padres. It's Mike Piazza's first return to Shea since his departure. Would the fans give him a standing ovation? Or would they boo him? Would he be emotional about being back?
