A Quickie On Thanksgiving
AT the start, I need to clarify two things.  First, the word "at," which you see at the beginning of the last sentence, is fully capitalized because I wanted to give this post (as opposed to "poast," which directly relates to turkey 'cause it's spelt like ...

"Jimmy!"  You say my name cautiously, as if you are unsure if it's me you're yelling at or a slice of uncooked bacon (applewood).  "The title.  Of this post?  You didn't capitalize the O or T in the words On and To.  Why, Jimmy?  Why?" read more

Top 6 Most Shocking MLB Events of All-Time: The Games - #3 The Jeffrey Maier Game
Steve Bartman interferes and he's crucified.  Young Jeffrey Maier does it and he's praised.  See what a home crowd can do?  In Game 1 of the 1996 ALCS, 12-year old Jeffrey Maier reached over the right field wall to seemingly grab a Derek Jeter ball from landing in the glove of ...

Bartman.  Could be the name of a superhero, maybe animated from The Simpsons.  Could be a guy who runs San Francisco train service.  It could be a guy you know named Bart who just fixed the copy machine, saving the staff 2 days of having to wait for a repair guy to come and not ...
