I would want the one with large headlights and can fix the elevator. She has to be able to see what she is doing so I can see what she is doing.

A scout from the Dodger's watched me pitch my last high school game in 1978! He pretty much had to because he was there to see the guy who was pitching against us. He told us the guy was throwing 95-98mph. Said I was bringing it 85-88 and that that wasn't too bad. Ha, after 3 innings of that I was probably throwing about 70 because my arm was gone.
Can't Anybody Here Play This Game? - Wikipedia

He threw a perfect game on us and showed out for the scout. I struck out 3 times just like everyone else. I fouled off some hard ones to the right and back, but I never caught one square. We did have 1 guy pop up to third. He's the only guy who got a ball in play.
I loved baseball in those days. I was at the first game at Riverfront Stadium. My love for the game waned as time went on, then came the strikes, steroids, political correctness, free agency, designated hitters, ad nauseum...etc. And now I couldn't possibly care less.
That said, I will be attending a ball game in Louisville sometime in the near future. Still can't beat a trip the ballpark.
I played fast pitch softball while in the military. I was a pretty good hitter back then. Batted third on every team I played on. We had a pitcher who had once beaten The King and His Court. In batting practice, he had to ease up on us for us to do anything. One day he pressed down on us. I couldn't even get a decent foul off him.
I loved baseball as a kid. My grandfather had some property in our neighborhood.....he made us a pretty good place to play.....enough kids in my neighborhood to make up 6-8 man teams...........I was the only lefty in the group....never learned to hit left handed........one of the few things that I can't do with both left and right......
Hello all,
Did I tell you all how DUMB I am...

Is she in therapy?
Saw King & His Court as a kid vs. a collection of NKy softball stars & semi-pro baseball players. 3-3 game.
In 1949 my uncle pitched (Some?) for the 6th Ward Boosters of Newport that finished 4th in that year's National Championship. Included teams like Clearwater Bombers & Phillips 66 Oilers.
Okay,
I can't tell you as good as I can show you!!! (Yeah, I'm DUMB!!!)
My Darling and I hit the water today crabbing, fishing, and clamming....... Got a few clams later, I didn't bring bait to fish with hoping I'd catch some bait fish, I did but where we were the fish weren't biting.....I caught a couple but not what we wanted so I released them.... NOW....
I packed our cooler with some nice ginger ale and water, just iced down so nicely... So inviting and so cold on a 90+ degree day in direct sunlight most all day...
We was catching crabs right off the bat, some nice ones too. Then it happened!!!!! I've heard of dumb and dumber but just plain DUMB... Here I type......
Man my Darling and I were getting thirsty and ready for a drink break with our nicely and might I add coldly iced down cooler...
Yeah I opened that old cooler top and and I found out how truly DUMB I am.....
AND These little dasturbs wouldn't let us have even one!!!! Crabs, if anything, are very spiteful....
Go ahead try grabbing a drink.... Go ahead...
Did I tell you how DUMB I am!!!!
If those look small, they "ain't"! (Had to put a couple back in the water later but we ended up with 17 keepers and several large ones like the below...
Take a gander...
And NOW you know....the rest of the story!!!
Gosh I'm DUMB!!!

Good morning from ATX. Currently 61°F, foggy and humid. Front moving through. Today's high peaking at 94°F. We received about 1/3 inch much-needed rain yesterday afternoon. Some scattered hail. We might break temperature records this coming weekend. Summer arrived early this year.
Working at the office seemed kinda strange. Hardly anyone there. At least coffee available. Our department could start working 2 days/week at the office later this summer.
Happy Friday, y'all.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

No she is from Boston, Mass. That is standard behavior for that crowd. Look at who they elected for the U.S. Senate. A bitter old lady. She is just following a Massachusetts tradition.
Morning Legionnaires!
50° this morning with light winds.
Going fishing this morning and with the luck I have had lately I need to implore the technique employed by my inspiration below.
Good morning all,
I'd like to think I woke up smarter than I was yesterday. I can only hope.
Finishing off some required work and I think we are headed back to the house. You all have a great day!!!

Well, I hope you're not as "crabby" as you were yesterday and just "clam" up about it. 😁
I can't count how many games I saw the Bombers play as a kid. Never had to buy a ticket. I grew up in Clearwater, Florida whenthe Bombers were in their prime.
Two of my high school teachers played for the Bombers, Herb Dudley was pitcher and Gene Mason was the third baseman. One of my g-aunts was married to another Bomber, Doc Summers and he played in the outfield. When Herb Dudley pitched the outfield could lay down and go to sleep. He was one of the best fast pitch softball pitchers in history.
* More than 1,000 ASA wins
* Struck out 55 batters in 21 innings
* In a five-year period he struck out 2,475 batters, with 110 shutouts and 45 no-hitters.
* More than 100 no-hitters during his career
* He won 10 ASA Championships with the Bombers.
* He is in the Hall of Fame and the most outstanding pitcher in the ASA tournament is awarded the "Herb Dudley Outstanding Pitcher Award"
I could go on and talk about Coach Dudley all day long. One little story. I was in his 10th grade Phys Ed class and one day he pulled out a $10.00 bill and put it on home plate. He said the first student that could hit his pitch could pick up the $10.00 bill. He said even a tip (foul ball) would count. Just make contact. He threw slow pitch and I couldn't wait to get up to bat. The ball would literally drop when you started to swing and nothing but air. Not a single boy in my class could make contact. Then he threw a couple of fast pitches and nobody even stayed in the batters box. I thought he was going to kill me with the pitch and ducked as the ball went flying by .
Coach was a devout Christian and would not pitch on Sunday. No telling how many more games he would have won if he had played Sundays. RIP Coach Herb Dudley, the best man and teacher I knew in all of my school years.

This would've been funny as a gag 20 years ago. Wish I could laugh at it now. Now it could get you a job at Disnee
Cats beat Vols last night 3-2 in 13 innings.
Good morning D-League. Drizzly and gray in the east.
I guess this is derby weekend. It really snuck up on me this year. I used to love it, but the horse doping scandals have tainted it for me. I don't know anything about a single horse in the race.
But, I'll watch it with my daughter and get choked up when they play My Old Kentucky Home. I hope the weather is decent.
Back to work. You all have a good day.

Happy Friday. It is 66.0°F and sunny/cloudy. We are supposed to top out at 70° with a 90% chance of rain. We had the same 90% yesterday and go .09" of rain. Hopefully today's 90% chance will be a little more productive.
See you all later.
See you all later.
It's going to be a soggy track for the Kentucky Oaks today. Ahh Louisville, probably the only city on the planet that kids get off school for a horse race.
I haven't bet yet, but my wife is about $75 up on the day, so far. I'll get involved here before long and lose some of her winnings.
Did you finish Ozark? We did last night.
I placed our Derby bets this morning. My wife bet $20 on Happy Jack. I bet $20 on Charge It and $3 on Tiz The Bomb. $43 down the tubes.
Yeah we finished Part 2 last Sunday night. To be honest, I was disappointed. It left me flat. Almost seemed like they used different writers. It wasn't bad just not the quality I'm used to. Every season got better, Part 2 didn't. Just my opinion.
I don't know about different writers, but there were some different directors. Laura Linley directed the next to last episode, when she was losing it more than usual. I didn't like the distraction of John Boy. Felt like he played way too big of a role.
Fishing report:
Blanked again. I have been blanked so many times this year I think I'll change my name to Billy.
It's so bad, the Reds are cringing.
It's as ugly as a Nancy Pelosi photo.
It's as incomplete as a Kamala Harris answer to a question.
It's as disappointing as a Biden presidency.
It's as confusing as 81 million votes.
The only action I saw today was 1 jake no shoulders at Rattler and 2 Jerry Mathers at Wapata who were pissed off I was there and not as nice as the one in the video below.
