Penniless Thought

Why is it a slice of lemon in a glass of water? Why not a slice of something more delicious to put in that glass of water cheap-asses order at a restaurant in place of a real drink? Putting aside that restaurants might be trying to discourage rather than encourage the ordering of waters, why don't they put something in there like a delectable slice of orange instead? I mean if you had the option of biting into a nice juicy sweet wedge of orange or a sour wedge of lemon, you would go for the orange wouldn't you?

Baseball Boogie

Well if there ever were to be a time to disassociate myself from the Dodgers as a fan the discovery of this video would be that time.



I'm just happy to not have seen this before 1988 or I may never have become a lifelong Dodger fan.

36 Days Until Softball Season

I see great things in baseball. It's our game - the American game. It will take our people out-of-doors, fill them with oxygen, give them a larger physical stoicism. Tend to relieve us from being a nervous, dyspeptic set. Repair these losses, and be a blessing to us.

Music Review

I'm no professional music reviewer but I just had to review this new band that everyone should see. First the basics, they're called PHYS, they call LA their hometown but are currently based and touring in the great state of Texas, and their only known band member is drummer MR. Now as for their musical talent, they're ok-so-and-so but they can't hold a candle to Popes Gone Wild. Hell, they're not even as good as the original Squishie and The Prophets. The scoreboard says it all:

# of Fans for Each Band
Popes Gone Wild: 314,400
Squishie and The Prophets: 271,200
PHYS: 204,000

37 Days Until Softball Season

No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference.
