3. Hey Billy!
I just sent you a PM!

I really appreciate those links. It's so hard to know what's around anything in a place you've never been.

You're welcome for the links. It was the least I could do.

7. Who's on first?
Anything I know about baseball is from 'The Natural.' I have the soundtrack. ;)

10. Justin Morneau, that's who.
Edited on Mon Feb-27-06 05:10 PM by WeRQ4U
I proudly predict a breakout year for the young lefty slugger. Hopefully he tightens his selection of pitches to those within 3 feet of the flippin' strike zone this year.

12. Stick with me, o sultry one
I'll have you knowing the difference between a 6-4-3 double play and a corner kick by July. :)

17. If you try to kick me in a corner, I call da police!
The only baseball related thing I have is this old bookmark my grandfather gave me:



Well, I think it's something baseball related. Or curling. I'm not sure. It's card size. :shrug:

22. That's Hans 'Honus' Wagner
Probably the greatest shortstop who ever lived.

25. Oh?
So you think I shouldn't cut the card in two to make two bookmarks?

Sounds German. Hans Wagner. Did he compose some Operas, too? :crazy:

26. Dunno about opera
But I think he was Dutch and a first-generation American.

27. Arrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
You're no fun anymore!

I'm telling you that my grandfather gave me this Honus Wagner card I use as simple bookmark. Now I want to cut it to make two bookmarks from it ...

I think the actual card is worth $1.3 million right now.

You don't collect baseball cards, do you? :popcorn:
Do you at least have a Yankee baseball cap?

28. I collected cards during one season
1972.

Sold 'em all a long time ago. Back then, we didn't collect cards as an investment. We just traded 'em.

As for the Yankees cap...


Ah hates Yankees.

30. Bugs played for a non-descript team


He replaced a team of old men who were getting walloped 96-0 by the Gas House Gorillas, played every position and ended up winning, somehow, 96-95. Scorer's error, I guess. :shrug:

Btw... I love "The Natural." Have it on VHS. It's quite a departure from the book, though.

9. I'm MORE than excited.
And 47 days until Easter weekend Minnesota Twins v. New York Yankees at the Metrodome. Saturday and Sunday. I'll be worshipping in the house of the almighty lefthanded Venezuelan, eating dome dogs and taking communion of overpriced shitty beer in large plastic cups.

New faces in the organization for a change. This year COULD be interesting. (Granted, it could also be a complete shitstorm).
