O I say these are
not the parts and poems of the body only, but of the soul,
O I say now these

--Walt Whitman,
"I Sing the Body Electric"

my home in the southwest suburbs of Minneapolis. Tony, Silky, and I made the trip
Wednesday afternoon with solemn business on our minds. We are three of the
youngest members of the Ligament Induction Panel, and the news had just come through the wire
that Twins pitcher Scott Baker would miss the 2012 season to fix and
rehab the flexor pronator tendon in his pitching elbow.
