Yes, the baseball Yankees of the American League (who are also the Yankees of the title of "Damn Yankees," the musical about Shoeless Joe from Hanibal, Mo.). Not to be confused with the Yankees of George M. Cohan's Yankee Doodle Dandy (who was born on the 4th of July), or the Yankees who Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro castigate, or the ones Scarlett O'Hara cursed after Tara burned in Technicolor.

Yes. Sunday. At night, which seems wrong.

The Lord helped us by making sure most of those brought together finally saw the error of their ways.


Uh, best wishes, you two.

Love, like faith, often requires acceptance without understanding. (This goes double if you have kids.)

Now that we own the biggest sponsor, Americans should be Man U fans now, right?

I read acceptance as abstinence and thought this was a Palin shout out.

Wait! I always thought Catrin was an obscure, not-oft used Penske-sock, no? And Penske's a guy (sort of), and so is Slave (sort of)......so how is this same-gender marraige thing possible? Or is it a commitment ceremony? Not taht theres anything wrong with either.

Eh, either way, good on ya mateys!
