Because books.

His argument was that the World Series was lame and misnamed because it doesn't involve world participation. However, participation by foreign born players in the Majors is at about 29%.

But that wasn't the case when the World Series was named, I think. And it's still not a "world" series the way the World Cup is. It's the two winningest U.S. major league teams, is all.

Correct. There was no ITV fire.

Ah, clearly, I am too literal for David's writing. Sorry to be a buzzkill. (Insert wry grin of your choice.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am now waiting for my husband to call me back so we can go get lunch. If he doesn't call in five minutes, I'm devouring Tokyo and calling it a day.

Trudy, be advised that there's a storm bubbling up in the Caribbean that may go to tropical storm, and most of the projected storm paths have it going straight up Florida. When do you do your drive?

That was the way they did it in MA when I was in high school and lost my license. (I mean, had my purse stolen, not had my right to drive revoked.)

Heh, when I lost my MA license a couple years ago, all I had to do was go online, fill out a form, submit a payment, and I got a copy in the mail like MAGIC.

The status is NOT quo.

Getting my license in CA was a total PITA. I had to take a written test!

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

The drive wouldn't be for a few weeks. We'll be three or four storms along by then!

We might even have a hurricane by then!
