Day #128
Thought of the Day:
People ask me what I do in winter
when there's no baseball.
I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.
- Rogers Hornsby
Bad Joke of the Day:
What takes longer, running from
first base to second, or from second to third?
Second to third, because you have to go through a shortstop.
