And calcium, of course! I was also told that taking the non-heme iron (spinach is a good source of iron!) along with heme iron also helps absorption. So, for me, meat and/or egg yolks plus vitamin C plus iron supplement for breakfast, and nothing else to eat for a while.
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I realized, to my utter shame, that I've never watched Bull Durham with him in all this time. (The pitcher and catcher were confabbing on the mound, and I said, "They're talking about candlesticks." Tim just looked at me blankly. I said, "I've never made you watch Bull Durham?!?" He said, "No, and I think you've made the candlestick comment before." Well, OF COURSE I have.)

Oh, MUST be rectified!

like, in the 7th inning, every batter is allowed to punch the catcher in the head if the second pitch is a strike. I don't think he believed me.
You could have told him the definition of a pitcher's balk. He'd never believe that.

Yup, I know what we're watching tonight.

He was actually dubious when I told him that foul balls were strikes but not third strikes. ("You mean the batter could hit foul balls for, like, an hour?")
He *did* know about t spit designated hitters, because he's heard my rant about it many, many, MANY times before.

When I would vent at my dad, he would wait for a pause in my bitching and say "Do you want lip or ear?" If I said lip, he'd give me advice, tell me that I was overreacting, etc. If I said "ear", he'd say "I'm so sorry He/She/They are idiots, of course you're right." :)
As Nora already said, this? Is awesome.

Is there any way we could sub this for the designated hitter rule? Because I'd vote for it.

As is right and proper!
Also, re: your tag -- is there a t-shirt of that yet? Because I would buy that shirt.

I haven't seen one mentioned on QC yet, sadly. I am tempted by the "Bros! Bros! Bros!" one, but I fear it would be misinterpreted by folks at large.

I am tempted by the "Bros! Bros! Bros!" one
At the ballgame last night, when the jumbotron would pan the crowd (which was sparse), they would almost always stop at this group of 4 guys with crazy hats and a fake guitar who would be dancing (where "karate-punching the air" = "dancing") like crazy (except for fake-guitar guy, who was, of course, fake-playing the HELL out of his fake guitar). And every time they were on the screen, I yelled "Bros! Bros! Bros!" Which, of course, no one got.
(I didn't really like the QC bros until the library strip they were in. That cracked me up, and I decided I liked them.)
