[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Apparently, if you wish to take this literally, you could.

When my plane was delayed for an hour and a half at JFK because they needed to find a new plane, but there was another plane blocking the hanger, Jet Blue sent me a $25 credit.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Ok, I couldn't resist clicking on Suzi's link. Click on the link, Kristin!

Our wings are not tired

If they would cancel the flight then Kristin could get onto something else. The big worry is that they won't cancel until it is too late to get on a flight today. If that happens she will most likely miss the ship.

Yay for Emmett and the rest of the Northern California State Champions!! How awesome is that! I ♥ me some Arlo, Hec. All those boys, really. Hope they get one heck of a party out of it!

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

Arlo was Emmett's teammate on our regular season team, The Cubs, as well. The manager and the other coach and I had a motto as the season wore on: "We had a problem so we threw Arlo at it."

Whenever we needed a huge pitching performance against a murderer's row lineup, or a key defensive stop, or a game winning hit...Arlo took care of it for us.

He's actually one of the smaller players on our team. And seeing as how we play lots of other all-star teams, we've seen a lot of really good players. But he's easily the best. He's like a small little Ichiro, except when he's Ozzie Smith, except when he's Greg Maddux.

Not that we didn't have a great team. We did. Deep pitching, incredible defense (we turned 8 double plays during all-star play. Only one double play was turned against us. We had four outs at the plate too. Our outfield defense made plays that other teams just didn't make) and everybody can hit. But he's the reason The Cubs won Tournament of Champions, and he's the reason Albany won the State Championship.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Congratulations to Emmett, Arlo, and the rest of the gang. That's fantastic news!
