White Sox Win the World Series!

Well it is about damn time. 1917 is a long time to wait. Did you know that the last time the White Sox won this thing the US was just getting into WWI after the Lusitania was struck by a torpedo? There was still an Ottoman Empire as well as an Austria-Hungarian one during that time. Also during that year the Russian Revolution happened.

Almost every single thing that I see around me has been invented since that time. Everything from this computer I'm typing this on, to the chair I'm sitting, on to the network, that you are reading this on has been invented since 1917. The entire world including almost all of the maps, the cultures, the social boundaries, the morays, and the behaviors have been reinvented since the last time the White Sox hoisted the trophy. Now only the Cubs are left.
