Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That said, I bet grade school leagues do not have pitchers that throw in the 90s, so the balls, even off metal bats, do not come back at 100mph.

No but they can throw the ball hard enough to break a nose.

Fuckety. A's are down 4-0. So much for Zito's new and improved attitude.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

At least he gets a no-decision, right?

Yeah, the Mets were leading going into the bottom of the 9th, until the closer (Looper) gave up back-to-back home runs. It was really ugly.

I can't even.

Poor Pedro. Go for the big-bucks contract, leave your above-average bullpen behind. At least he gets a no-decision, right?

-Braden Looper pitches to Austin Kearns

Settle down, missy, it's opening day (more or less). Baseball will probably be a marginal presence until the playoffs.

Somehow, I'm having problems believing this. You wacky, wacky baseball fans talk about it in or out of season.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Anyone here like CATS?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks for the automotive tips. I've found some weird things surfing so far (the Jetta and Civic are competitors?) -- this will be interesting.

I hate when people have sentences in their e-mail signatures. I mean, if I know that every e-mail of yours will end with "Thanks" or "Have a nice day" it kinda robs the sentiment of ... well ... sentiment.

Holy Snerkity. REDS WIN, REDS WIN!

So, are the Reds gonna be the new Sox this season?

Kitties! Shadow climbed into my lap and insisted on a snuggle yesterday. Our independent kitten is growing up.
