That's a tough one. The first baseball game I ever attended was a Tigers - Royals game (in Tiger Stadium). The Tigers were always a household favorite, but the Yankees were popular too (we lived in Columbus). But I haven't lived in the midwest for, well, a long time, and have been a Yankees fan for as long as I've lived in NY (which includes years when they were not exactly successful).

To conlcude, I'm cheering for the Yankees - but if they don't win, I hope the Tigers do.

Talk about having your cake and eating it, too.

Excellent. I enjoy playoff baseball a lot. It's the only time I really pay any attention to it.

My doorman also has playoff tickets. He and my boyfriend were talking so much about baseball last night that finally I just left them to chat and I went up to my apartment. My boyfriend showed up about 15 min later. I am all for bonding, but really. I need dinner and attention!

No, actually, GGG is my wife, with the photoshop skills. But she forgot to sign off.

Sometimes I find myself in a bit of a dilemma trying to decide which group I find more offensive -- the cake eaters or the cake havers. DTB has resolved this dilemma for me nicely.

Oh. I see. It's been okay for you for 50 years of Friday and Saturday nights, but if it's not about you, you get all huffy.

Just a thought.
Take it to the spinning board.

It is the only one of those that is any good at all. I actually quite like Braveheart.

My boyfriend thinks that the woman in Braveheart (not Sophie Marceau -- but the one that dtb likes) is very very beautiful. I think she is very pretty, but I would not say she is the pinnacle of beauty.
Sacré bleu! No way is she hotter than Sophie:

The ND band has been playing it for years.

Six flags promo
 
Eat a hissing cockroach, cut in line.

GURNEE, Ill. — Why wait in line when you can just eat a cockroach? That's the question Six Flags Great America is asking its thrill seekers during its Halloween-themed FrightFest. The amusement park is daring customers to eat a live Madagascar hissing cockroach in exchange for unlimited line-jumping privileges.

The promotion, which has Lake County Health Department officials shaking their heads, starts Oct. 7.

Anyone who chows down the entire 2- to 3-inch horned cockroach gets a pass for four people to cut to the front of ride lines through Oct. 29.

Consuming live roaches might increase risks of gastrointestinal illness and allergies, according to Bill Mays, Lake County Health Department's community health director.

And may cause random people around them to just barf. I don't know how bad the lines are, but this isn't a real incentive for me.

roaches

Taylor says he's hoping someone can beat the 2001 Guinness Book of World Records feat in which a British man downed 36 cockroaches.

I assume this isn't today's submission since there are no T&A.

Nothing like downing a few roaches before climbing on King Chaos.
