I will never finish the nostalgia, but a drink sounds nice.

What’s a Fluff-arita?
"Evil lurks everywhere, often in plain sight... Can you lurk in plain sight? Or is that just walking?"
A glass full of tequilla
With a splash of margarita mix. :)

Bottom of the ninth, tie game, Tony Clark leading off.
Time for a walk-off, guys.

a leadoff walk that ends up scoring the winning run, too.

Makes you feel any better,
I ran into a gay guy at Walgreens today who used to hit on me when he was a customer while I was working at the bank.

Not that he would have made it anyway, but does sliding into first base really get you there any faster?

Some say it sounds like

HAaHAaHahAhhAhhahAHahAHAHAhAhhahHHahAHAHahhAHAhAHAHAha!
S'okay.
A lot of people confuse the Wendigo with other things. Like a deer. Or even other person.
You hear that? Anyone could be a Wendigo. Even mrssoco.

I've never heard her

Oh, O-Dawg. That wasn’t it.
Guys, when I said “let’s get 20 hits,” I didn’t mean that you should go to extra innings for it.
"Evil lurks everywhere, often in plain sight... Can you lurk in plain sight? Or is that just walking?"
Seven
Consecutive zeros for the offense now.
How big was Tracy’s failure to get the run in from third with one out?
It's either that
or Melvin has a delusion that he’s managing the All Star Game right now.

Long term Joss Whedon fans should have expected it.

Correct that
He is due up third, as it was a double-switch, and he replaced Slaten.

I was gonna say....
it was a double switch, so he should be hitting soon…

Man that Broxton
he’s a real man. A strapping man. A man with husky thighs that I can just nuzzle in, frollick in, feel the warm throbbing. He’s a big man. I like big men. Men that hump s—- up. Men that bankrupt Home Town Buffets for breakfast before cutting down an entire forest before noon. Men with a exterior that’s as gruff as it is hairy and calloused, a full moon face preferably complimented by a broom thick beard, one that houses the nests of birds and gold coins.
Yes sir, I like a man whose broad shoulder strain any plaid flannel shirt in existance, one that moves an arm or leg or toe and ripples with pure muscle and testosterone. This is the kind of man I like. One that knows how to build a log cabin, but also spoon late at night listening to Poison or Ratt or Journey. A man that when he needs to travel across the ocean, grabs a damn shark by the neck and rides it like a horse to his destination. That’s the kind of man I like. A man like Johnathon Broxton

But sharks have like a 1000 teeth

They only have 15000 teeth
because they’re constantly losing teeth. But sharks are generally scared of people.
Our divemaster in SD was saying that the only divers he knows that have ever seen a larger shark - say, blue shark, great white, etc. - are the divers who use rebreathers. And that’s because rebreathers don’t produce bubbles, (They’re a closed system) which are loud and scary to a shark.
Plus, swimming around with a steel knife strapped to the inside of your left calf is just plain hardcore. ;-)
Mark Reynolds: back to turning me gay.
I concede the hardcore-ed ness
but…. I am not going to not worry a little. Just bear with me, I am a worrier. Sharks + people I know = scary.
As an aside though, crabs are almost as scary to me than sharks cause have you WATCHED Deadliest Catch? Holy good lord, those things will come at you from all angles. Keep your knives out for them. ;)
Isn't it enough to know I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
Heh.... I think Deadliest Catch is one of my brother's favorite shows.
I’d be more worried about the giant Japanese spider crab that’s like 12 feet wide.
Mark Reynolds: back to turning me gay.
