It got very dark. And when the sun came out, there was this strange win eating plant sitting on the table beside me.

83 - and so Ned bought bought Rafael Furcal. For $13M/year and three years. La la la la ooooh.

If you want a rationale it isn't really hard to see no no no stop and think it over pal the guy sure looks like plant food to me.

On the eighteenth day of the month of July, in the early year of a century not too long before our own, the Dodgers encountered a deadly threat to their very existence.
And this terrifying enemy surfaced -- as such enemies often do -- in the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places...
Little BOB -- Little BOB of horrors!

I played all our rookies
And veterans too
It's better than nothing
Or Jorge Cantu
I'm begging you sweetly
I'm down on my knees
Oh, please -- hit for me!
I moved our old shortstop
And made him play third
Although he can't bat there
And hits like a turd
I've given him time off
His fam'ly to see
Now please -- hit for me!
120. Humma Kavula
First verse:
A bandbox of our own!
A fence -- let's pad it, please.
Grilled dogs in the loge
That cool, third-base-side breeze
New seats staring up at Diamondvision screen
In the stadium we share:

I've given you Vegas exposure to get you to drive
I've given you Nomar and lofton to get you to thrive
I've given you spare parts and DFAed the crud
I've given you corked bats and "mineral supplements" what do you want from me, blood?
126. Humma Kavula
Verse two:
They roam the outfield grass
(But I don't trust their knees)
And once, just once, I wish
Our pitchers'd bring the cheese
This season's had its ups and downs;
sometimes it hurts my spleen
I'll eat peanuts somewhere in
Chavez Ravine
130. Humma Kavula
Oh -- I forgot the verse!
I know Neddie's the greatest
But sometimes I think he's -- well -- a sadist
'Cause he got us Fucal
And the team's awfully frail
Still, that Neddie's our guy
At least till McCourt wants to watch him fry
And the ballpark they play in
Makes it easy for me when they fail
132. Steve
I am your manager and I get off on causing fans pain
I am your manager and my strategies are quite inhumane
I thrill when I run out of a big inning
I bunt when they tell me I'm mad
And though it may cause the fan base distress (distress)
I know that somewhere somewhere up above me
I know that old Felipe is proud of me.
Cause I'm a manager, and a success!
Say duh (duhhhh)
Say duh (duhhhh)
Say DUH (DUHHHH)
NOW BUNT!!
Plus: Ashman and Menken comedy songs! Love it!
I once heard Alan Menken riff on comedy songs while performing "Gaston" on the piano. "I'm really quite good at expectorating!"
I'll get around to it in 4-5 months.
I have "Shattered Glass" at home to watch. I like that one for the jokes.
Ever heard of NetFLix:)
Some of us have had training in reading these library catalog dealies...
Sam, if Anibal implodes in the 7th I will hold you personally responsible.

Skip 11, didn't see 5
I had sort of thought that.
Not in the conventional sense, but in a Roto sense I really need the win and dominating performance as I try to move him for a more stable pitcher for my stretch run.
Here are two samples:

Mr. Mushnik sure looks like plant food to me.
Yeah, PVHS reopened in 2002 or so. I think the class that graduated this spring was the first one to finish four years there.
I'm one of five brothers who all attended PVHS. I played in the orchestra for four musicals, but what Kari accomplishes is far beyond what I ever saw there.
They rented Audrey II and many of the costumes. It works incredibly well, although I feel bad for the kid who has to animate it from inside in this heat. The multipurpose room has no A/C and is a heat trap.
we (a good ammount of the cast of Thoroughly Modern Millie) saw Little Shop today, it was awesome.
