By a remarkable coink-y-dink, Dr. D was just now talking Detroit Tigers with a transplanted 70-something fan. Just this last weekend. What a joy it was.

He talked about seeing Al Kaline's debut game - Al hit the ground running, had every blinkin' inch an Edgar Martinez slash line at age 20 (!).

Take a Day Out for a Romantic Walk

The next time you want to relax and spend some time with your special someone, try just taking a nice walk. It’s a great way to work up an appetite before going out on the town. If you really want to get away from the city, try a drive down to Los Gatos and hike the Skyline to the Sea Trail. You can even set up a tent and go camping if you feel like staying longer. Or stick closer to home by walking around GuadalupeRiverPark.

Take a Romantic Vacation Abroad

When next you have some vacation time available, consider grabbing up your special someone and traveling far away from your home to explore the romantic destinations of the world. There are countless locations where you can be alone with your loved one and here are a few of the best. Try a trip to Panama and the lesser-known destination of San Blas. It may not be filled with luxury, but it’s perfect for those that want something a little quieter. Or travel far across the ocean to the capital of Turkey, Istanbul.

I'm sad to have to let it go, but it's the only option at this point. If I had infinite #Space to stow a non-working car, I would totally keep it. I have personal #History with the car, my dad bought it new in 1987, so yeah... it's hard. #Singles #Erika B #newyork-single.com #Chat:10-1-14_12:43pm

NY Yankees and All of New York Say Goodbye to Derek Jeter

The Yankees may be losing the season, but for one retiring player this Thursday was a true win. Derek Jeter, who announced that he would no longer be playing in the big leagues, went out with a bang. He managed to turn his last at bat into an RBI double that won his team the game. It was a pretty impressive ending to a career that many Yankees fans will remember fondly. And it’s not just the fans that will miss Jeter, as his teammates have followed his lead on more than one occasion.
