  6. No sir!
  7. Guess who?
  8. Perhaps he means it as "politely leftist" i.e. - inoffensive, all-but ineffective in any real fashion. In which case, I would say to him, who the fuck are you? It's just too weird, though, becuse post-ColdWar pink is a power-color for gays and/or grrrrrls, so his choice of color to represent ineffectuality betrays a very un-"hipness", even a prejudice of his own. So he's actually practicing the kind of pseudo-hip "liberalism" that he seems to find so apallaing in the historical figures he's writing about. Either that or he's a closeted Nixonite. As far as being fucked up goes, six of one... Just walk away...the stench of death gets in your nostrils and is very hard to get out.
  9. Still, I gotta wonder how "sloppy" ends up at "pink" when describing a political bent. Just fell down and landed there?
  10. Turned up all over a bunch of TV westerns, too. Sometimes the good guy, sometime not.
  11. I can't believe it to be inadvertent...how else would you settle on "pink" as a point of reference other than Cold War aspersionalism? Even if used ironically...that's really odious in my book (which I'm not writing, so as not to be part of either the problem or the solution, or the zeitgeist, all of which have their own agendas, none of which are mine, assuming that I have one, which other than getting out of this life alive, I do not).
  12. Me (too) You (please) You, again (thanks!)
  13. Time is probably longer than life...but maybe not? Still...if life is circular, how long is time...or vice-versa, if even? And if even, then how odd? How odd! Burma Shave.
  14. I'm still trying to get a handle on "the pink-shaded dissent of a Dizzy Gillespie or a Jon Hendricks"...is this Richard Nixon talking about Helen Gahagan Douglas, or somebody who OD-ed on Ken Nordines Colors album, or just an old-fashioned dumbass?
  15. Ever get anybody named Peggy?
  16. We used 10 starters over the course of last season. When Scott Feldman spells Matt Harrison, he will be only the 7th starter we've used this year, the other one being Dave Bush, about whom the less said the better..."thanks for being a body when a body was needed" should suffice. This rotation has been better in terms of consistency, durability, and endurance than anybody could have expected (in terms of both franchise history in general & what we knew about them going in to the season), but yeah, they're starting to look tired, and it is time to start making allowances and considerations, especially for the back three of Harrison, Ogando, & Holland, who are all in uncharted territory as far as season innings pitched. Regardless of the final outcome, they have been an inspiration to see grow, struggle, and develop, although on occasion Derek Holland seems to forget that this isn't some sandlot slowpitch game...but his ceiling seems to be as high as his floor, so...hopefully he grows up sooner than later, and with the Rangers instead of somebody else.
  17. Those are "personal watermelons". For real!
  18. Correct, Valerie! I'm surprised anyone got her. Did you know her when she was married to Lester Bowie? Here's someone whose face I bet many recognize, but do you remember his name? William Schallert.
  19. Gary Herbig Kent Hrbek Ray Herbert
  20. You think the spoil in one part of the country would produce the same flavor as that in another? Because we got really tasty 'lopes here. But that Ambosia in Florida....man, that was something else altogether!
  21. Ding! Ding! Sonny Fortune is correct! Not Sullivan, though. http://www.allmusic.com/album/camel-r136478

  23. No sooner does Beltre get ready to come back than Cruz strains a hammie...three weeks out is the preliminary estimate. Hamstrings suck. Hamstrings sad. Boo hamstrings.
  24. a-HA! Somebody else knows about these...what's the deal, just how "local" are they anyway...I really want to get another one as good as the one I bought from that vanishing farmer that one time...
