A giant fan

Went to the clinch game tonight. It was awesome. I think I might be a giants fan...

What struck me was how unifying the whole experience was. All those people, putting energy into a common goal ( with the exception of the occasional Padres fan. So I mention to John that i might want to get a big orange sweatshirt, being a new fan and all. But what it really was, was the desire to be a part of something bigger than myself. A desire to be part of a Whole. So now I get it. That's part of what the whole "fan" thing is. Another way to remember that the Whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

A a giant fan of the Whole. And I still might get a sweatshirt. Or a gnome...
