For All Red Sox Fans: a little humor:
> Red Sox Humor
>
>
> A Red Sox fan used to amuse himself by scaring every Yankee fan he saw
> strutting down the street in their obnoxious NY pinstripe shirt. He would
> swerve his van as if to hit them and then swerve back just missing them.
>
> One day, while driving along, he saw a priest. He thought he would do a
> good deed. So, he pulled over and asked the priest, "Where are you going
> Father? "I'm going to give mass at St. Francis church, about 2 miles down
> the road," replied the priest. "Climb in, Father! I'll give you a lift!"
>
> The priest climbed into the rear passenger seat and they continued down
> the road.
>
> Suddenly, the driver saw a Yankee fan walking down the road, and he
> instinctively swerved as if to hit him. But, as usual, he swerved back
> into the road just in time. Even though he was certain that he had missed
> the guy, he still heard a loud "THUD."
>
> Not understanding where the noise came from, he glanced in his mirrors but
> s till didn't see anything. He then remembered the priest and he turned to
> the priest and said, "Sorry Father, I almost hit that Yankee fan."
>
> "That's OK," replied the priest, "I got him with the door."

2. Thank you!
Actually got this from a Republican friend of mine just today. (We don't talk politics usually; otherwise she's a lovely and smart lady.)

4. Thanks for letting me know you like it!
I thought it would be rather safe since we have so many Boston DU'ers.

5. Some piss and vinegar Yanks fan will be here soon
complaining that you're advocating violence against Yankees fans.

You obviously missed that "did he really punch Sheffield?" flamewar. Tensions are high...

14. Thank you, Kathy in Cambridge!
It was a beautiful windy day in January, and I got lucky with the wave blowing back all foamy, and that little rainbow too. It's not always that beautiful, but often enough...

:loveya:

10. Let me guess. The priest was Cardinal Law and the yankee fan an
