People is people. Grits are good too. Especially the true ones. And i think the frutti pebbles comment is the current thread winner. I'm still tryin' to figure out a good answer...

Under certain conditions, if advertising has told me anything. 1. They are frosted. 2. You're a tiger.

Nunez!?! I guess if you come off the disabled list, that makes you enabled.

That's self-sustaining. It's ecological, or, dare i say? Indeed i dare... green.

Sorry we over reacted. Is it my imagination, or was the fanfare played during the fireworks used in disney's black hole soundtrack? Probably both referring to something earlier that i, in my limited classical music background, was not familiar with.

That is good to hear. It is probably one of those "emergencies" what only occur upon the internets. A virtual emergency, if you will. Anyway, slowly figurin' my way to turnin' the game on...

I was also waitin' in the wings... This is what i got: Weighting until the last second. That's heavy, man. Like Jupiter heavy. Some team has spring training in Jupiter. Apparently it's a long bus ride, so the regulars don't make the trip so often. But, like olympians practicing at altitude, in might give an advantage to be in differing atmospheric or gravitational conditions... As i'm pretty sure it isn't Chicago, i guess i've been distracted from this game thread. Sorry. Only having performed drive-bys of the windy city, i've never experienced the actual gravity of playing the white sox. Last i checked the standings, they were breathing down our necks, so every game counts (well, counting being what it is, every game always counts, or you wouldn't be counting) or rather i mean winning matters. Anyway, as you can see, i'm not really focused on the game... Atmospheric conditions (wikipedia) 20-200 kiloPascals (where an (earth) atmosphere is 101 kPa) the wide range is due to an atmosphere of roughly 90% Hydrogen, and 10% helium under about 2.5 earth gravity, and well, clouds which probably have other stuff. I don't think the Red Spot is anywhere near, but if it comes through, the er, rain delay will be significant. Oh, you mean in Chicago? 73 degrees and partly cloud, as per the site i got the line up from... Baseballpress.com. And the players are... Pitchin' fer da Twins: Trevor May {R} Bsttin' fer da Twins: 1. Brian Dozier {R} 2B 2. Shane Robinson {R} LF 3. Trevor Plouffe {R} 1B 4. Torii Hunter {R} RF 5. Kurt Suzuki {R} C 6. Eduardo Escobar {S} 3B 7. Eduardo Nunez {R} DH 8. Aaron Hicks {S} CF 9. Danny Santana {S} SS Pitchin' fer da Sox{W}: Chris Sale {L} Battin' fer da Sox{W}: 1. Adam Eaton {L} CF 2. Melky Cabrera {S} LF 3. Jose Abreu {R} 1B 4. Adam LaRoche {L} DH 5. Conor Gillaspie {L} 3B 6. Alexei Ramirez {R} SS 7. J.B. Shuck {L} RF 8. Tyler Flowers {R} C 9. Carlos Sanchez {S} 2B And a final thought... If the ball orbits the earth once, and is caught, is it a homerun, or an out? similarly if it lands in foul territory? Or fair territory? Though i expect the point is moot, as the necissary speeds would likely destroy the ball. Is that a homerite, or a homeroid?

True. That's what i like about 'em. On a vaguely related note, preacher is worth a thousand wards... I really don't know if that will help us with the jinxes though. G'night! Long day of sorts on my end.

I liked it too. But apparently actions have a favorable exchange rate with words comparable to pictures... Meh, if i remember 3 hour drive is like a sandwich? So this is like toast? Anyway, best to ya on the move! Glad you were so appreciated at work. 25 years is... Well, it's something to think about what i was up to 25 years ago.

While i'm thinking of it, a concept i don't plan to use. 1 word game thread intro: That word? The name of the game in Entish.

Perhaps that indicates how closely he was following the game? I know i neglect the thread for that reason. (Though also just 'cause i've fallen asleep)

I didn't think he was in line for a save. But he got a job done this inning. And next is a new inning. Anything could happen.

Wow, ya don't see that so often... A strike 'em out, batter's interference double play.
