Big, honking mitt: good. Foul tips, wild pitches, backswings: bad. I vote cups for catchers.
Yeah, it's the foul tips that get you. Think of the angle on a foul tip that shoots down under your glove, hits the dirt and bounces back up. If you're wearing a cup, that would ring your bell. (As they used to say when the cups were metal - with a rubber edge where it touched your skin.)
I never got whacked in the balls while catching, though I might've caught a knee in there while going over a runner while turning a double play.

Been randomly kicking guys in the groin again, have we?
You know what's more fun? Punching. I favour an overhand right, but I've heard good things about the uppercut.
I cop to a groinseeker rep.
Your head might not be safe around me, but your head is.
Sales Tax in the Maritimes is 15%, it can be applied on every level of purchase and there are exemptions on SFA.

Is that PST and GST? IIRC, Quebec makes it up to 15.75 or something.
The master instructor at my TKD school loves kicking people in the groin, which he makes no bones about. He claims it's because he's too old to kick people in the head, but to hear him tell stories from his times on the tournament circuit it's always been one of his favorite targets.
The worst part is you'll fight him knowing this, be sure to try and guard your groin and he'll still nail you.
Is that PST and GST?
It's HST - Harmonized Sales Tax.
Is that PST and GST?
In the Maritimes they combined it all into the Harmonised Sales Tax, which is just 15%. It used to be like Quebec where, because they are piggybacking one tax on another, it was a little over 15%.

And I'm about to ask a plumbing question!
Now I'm getting a puddle around the pottie. I cannot see where it comes from or when. I have ruled out the dog. Ever since they "upgrades" in our building's plumbing at least one neighbor has been getting a faucet that runs constantly -- I'm thinking the water pressure is higher now. WTF do I do?

Figure out where the leak is coming from? Is it coming from the base of the toilet, where it meets the floor? Is it leaking from somewhere on the tank itself?

Is it possible it's condensation from the tank? Is the tank wet?
