The National League Champs played the American League Champs. One side won and the other side lost. (I am guessing that it was that team from Beantown that won)

There was a World Series? Congrats.

I love that video.

No one but a lawyer could make such an asinine comment. If you are "guilty as homemade sin", then you are by definition not innocent. Oh, you may not be found guilty in a court of law, but that isn't what makes you innocent. What makes you innocent is.....NOT BEING GUILTY of doing the crime. Only someone who thinks that what is decided in a courtroom defines what really happened could make such a statement.

Sadly in the past few elections, it has been which do you think is worse, not who is the best. Just my opinion.

It is a shame more "stars" aren't that way.

I worked retail from the time I was 15 until I was 31. I was everything from a bagboy (yes, I actually carried your groceries out to the car and a quarter was a good tip) to a store manager. One thing that has changed is that in my day (yeah, I know, the good old days, right?) the customer was always right. Even when they were wrong. If you or your company screwed up, you admitted it, apologized and corrected it. You did not act as if dealing with the customer or their problem was an inconvenience and you did not pass the buck. I cannot tell you how many times I have said, sarcasticall

From everything I have ever heard or read, she is exactly what she seems to be. A nice, good christian lady.

I like your dad, logical thought does not always apply.

I haven't heard that one in so long I forgot the punch line. An oldie but a dang goodie! Thanks for reminding me of it.

If this helps give an example of how I am turning into my dad. My father became very upset with the "modern" athlete and their pay demands. He also became disillusioned with the sports announcers, he felt they talked to much. (I agree) Anyway, one day I was at his house and he asked me if I knew what announcer he didn't like. My smart aleck answer was, "Daddy, we don't have time to list all the people you don't like, why don't you just tell us who you do like, that will save time." My father got mad and told me I was being disrespectful, in his mad dad voice. While I was in my late 40's

Never heard or saw this lady before, but I am in love. (and not on looks, although they ain't bad) She's a judge?

I just wish I had more of the better aspects of my father, but I don't mind "turning into" him, he was a good man. I never heard anyone ever say a negative word against my father. Sounds like you got a good dad also, but at 37, I object to using the term "getting older". You must be over 40 at minimum to use those words.

I have been cruising for years. (oh, you guys meant on a boat...never mind) I guess I can leave the port where I have been waiting for momof 3 to meet me with my ticket.

There have always been stories like this. On September 6, 1949 in Camden, New Jersey, Howard Unruh killed 13 people in a 12 minute walk through his neighborhood. The people were picked at random. Unruh went back to his house to reload and engaged in a shootout with the police. During the siege at his house, a reporter called Unruh on the phone and one of the strangest conversation ever took place. Here is that conversation, which was ended by the police firing teargas into the house: R: "What are they doing to you?" U: "They haven't done anything to me yet, but I'm doing plenty to them

Glad you both had a wonderful time!

I wear contacts or glasses. I have a major astigmatism and am considered (or I used to be, I don't know if they changed the rules) legally blind. I get 20/20 with my contacts and glasses, but the last time I checked, and it was quite a few years ago, the Lasik couldn't get me to where I wouldn't still have to wear glasses. That may not be the case any longer as I am sure they have made improvements over the years. And yep, I have the cheaters for reading also.

Back in the early 1980's I worked for a few years with Arthur Allan. I found him to be a nice man committed to his principles and faith. He frequently invited to come hear him preach and finally one day I did visit his church and hear him preach. The congregation was extremely welcoming and I enjoyed the service. I was the only white guy in a church of, if memory serves, around 100-150 people. I did have a moment when Arthur did the old, "every head bowed and every eye closed" prayer thing. The thought went through my head; I can see it now, "we don't know how it happened, we had every

I am a big fan of The Beverly Hillbillies TV show. But like The Andy Griffith Show, I mostly enjoy the old black and white ones. While I enjoy all the characters on The Beverly Hillbillies, my favorite is Granny. She makes me laugh out loud and slap my knee. Here she is with her ever present shotgun. And here Granny tries to straighten out politics.

I think Granny says it all for me.

Don't beat yourself up, I could talk and said I couldn't see the TV from the couch, but you know how kids are. My mom just figured I was trying to get as close as I could to the TV. Like I said, I didn't know you were supposed to see things more than a few feet away, so I had no idea what I couldn't see. I do remember the ride home wearing my new glasses, who knew there were trees, houses and billboards along Atlanta Rd. Some kids will maybe make fun, but from what I remember and what I see today, there are more kids wearing glasses today than there were in my day. I don't know if tha

When I was a kid, I used to sit right in front of the TV, no more than 2' away. This was in the early 60's and the TV was an 18" or 20" black and white RCA. My parents would always tell me to move back away from the TV. I received a few switchings over sitting too close to the TV. Then came 3rd grade. They did a simple eye chart test. you know where they cover one eye and you read the smallest line you can. They called my mother to come get me out of school and take me that day to the eye doctor. I couldn't see the big E at the top off the chart. The eye doctor said he had no idea h

When the cops pull you over by name, you may need to rethink your lifestyle. "I think I crapped my pants!"

Sadly, no one ever invites me to their wedding, not even the scammers.

While trying to find an answer to feelip's question, I came across something I don't remember. A song about Ludowici and Lester's fight. Here is the link to the song and some other info on what went down on the speed trap in Ludowici. Lester Goes to Ludowici
