But from the looks of it during the World Series, good seats do remain available.

The Yankees do a lot of things right, but that does not seem to be one of them.

A short 6'2 is a 5'11.

AoN, why must men under 6' lie about their height? Is there like a rule of thumb for fudging?

If I am wearing 4 inch heels and I have to lean down to kiss you, you are not 5'10.

Hell, maybe both.

The fact is that there was tanned muscular manflesh in the mud outside her window and she did something about it, even if she does now hang at NASCAR on weekends.

I understand it all began with a glass of lemonaide on a hot day.

Your chosen successor is Muggs, and he's halfway there.
What about bitching about children's television is me?

eta: you may be able to figure out from this, especially if you speak Italian, but I can't.
It's the Correfoc (fire run) from Barcelona's La Merce festival. Surely Less has been.

It could be that's who I was thinking of. Who knows how I got it all confused.

Whatever happened to str8 anyway? Did TomatoBasilSoup take away his internet privileges?

I run along a golf course fence most days. Guys are always looking for their balls along the fence line and I often see the balls first and point it out to them. one thing they have in common is they all seem to be looking for their balls at spots 20 yards further than where it went.

This can't be nostalgia, because Elmo wasn't around when I watched back in the late 70s (when it truly was awesome). Oscar really isn't that much of a grouch anymore, and some monster (Abby?) actually flies now. WTF?
Just don't let it watch those first two seasons!!!!!! OMG!!!!! http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/18/ma...P1DjGzI0P7zmsw
