I should probably post something..

..seeing as how I have a Blog and all.

The weather in O-Town has been wondermous the last couple of weeks!
80's and 90's,and the days getting longer is just fine by me.I was having to wear a jacket riding my bike to work on the cold mornings,and then having to wear it home in the heat of the afternoon so I'd have it for the next day...Total suckage!
Now it's just a T-shirt both ways.

The Lizzard King is making serious moves to acquire our local pool hall.It's actually a family billiards establishment that he's pretty much grown up in.They serve beer and have 11 tables,(8 regulation,and 3 bar tables).He's got a good head on his shoulders so I know he'll do well should the deal go through.

I had some fun with non-stop-talker at work today.
The minute I walked in the door he started yappin' about some baseball team I don't care about,signing some pitcher whose name I can't remember,and paying him "8,000 dollars a pitch!"..

Me:"Well,what the hell kind of incentive is that?"
NST:"Waddaya mean?"
Me:"If he strikes out every batter with 3 pitches,he makes less money"
NST:"No..It doesn't work like that.."
Me:.."and what if he only pitches 1 pitch to each batter,and they all fly out to like,center field,..then he'd really get screwed!"
NST:.."It's NOT like that!"..You see..."
Me:"Personally,if it was me,I'd just let every batter get to a full count,or even let 'em go through the batting order several times an inning..Hell,.he could lose the game 87 to nothin' and REALLY make bank!"
NST:"LISTEN DAMMIT!...That just means that they took the value of his contract,and divided it by the AVERAGE number of pitches per game that he's thrown in his Career!..THAT'S how they come up with 8 Grand a pitch"..
ME:..Oh,..I see...Hey!..What if he throws a pitch,hits the batter,and it bounces off him and hits the guy on deck...Do they BOTH get to take their bases?"...
