Minor leaguer traded for 10 bats

How do you think this guy feels?

understood. maybe if they start using different flight profiles, like steep ascent/descent to get to altitude faster (less air to push at 30k than at 15), they can save some on the fuel bill too. Thae airlines have already started flying at slightly slower speeds to save fuel. see http://discussion...

Jimmy mentioned on English Football (Soccer)

Yesterday was the final day of the English Premier League. If Fulham FC lost they would have to move down a division next year, a tie would do them no good. They scored with 14 min left and won 1-0. Well the Fulham radio/internet announcer, know as Gentleman Jim, said that Fulham fans every where wo...

A few years certain type of traps were banned here in MA. Well guess what, now coyotes are showing up in suburban and urban areas. Now all of a sudden little Crackers the cat and Benji the dog are disappearing. I wonder why? Luckily nothing like what happened in Cali has happened here yet.

Our credit reports say that account was "canceled by customer request" so I don't forsee any problems with our credit score or anything like that. Any time you cancel a card always ask that it be noted that it was canceled at your request. That way in the future any new creditors know why...

Speaking Of the Cornelia Marie, WROR (105.7) in Boston had Capt. Phil Harris on the radio today. You can listen to their pod cast here, it takes place about 11 min in and is takes about 5 min. He talks about the prank that the Hilstrands played last week.

The first 2/3 it seemed like they were going through the motions but the last third was great as they had kicked it up a notch. I wish the entire show had been like the last part. I have heard tha...
