What’s taters, eh?
Bill:
I've got to fly out of town on a business trip but I'm really worried about getting through the security at Logan …
Mike:
How's that?
Bill:
Well, you know, on account of how I've lost my identity now that the Red Sox have won anothah pennant and all.
Mike:
Hey, yeah, I've heard that even up in Cow Hampshire they're changing the the state motto from "Live Free or Die" to "Peace Out, Bro."
Bill:
So I'll meet you and the rest of the gang in the lobby for the victree parade?
Mike:
Absolutely. But just remembah, if you see a guy in one of those fake eyeglasses and nose disguises and with blue lips, look aftah your balls.
Bill:
A-Rod?!
Mike:
Yeah, you know that dude is going to be totally stalking the rolling rally today, whispering crazy talk out loud about how "They have the Precious but the Precious is Mines. Yankees betrays us. Wicked, tricksey, false. Where is it? Where is it? They stole it from us. My Precious."

//ETA around 4:30. We'll be the two guys who look alike//
Is that because you know Bob will get there around noon, and there's really only one of you?

God, I'm fast becoming the Foster Brooks of this site.
I'll have you know I'm officially classified as "Functioning."

Parade thoughts:
Papelbot does a great Hulk Hogan re: hand to ear. Oki is actually a worse dancer than I am - making white guys everywhere thankful. Maybe more ARod sucks signs than RS signs. And this is when it sucks living 3500 miles from home - but thank god for the interwebs.

Gee, SDU, thanks for posting my most flattering pic. :)
What about the one where I look like Tim Robbins?

BTW, note the Jim Rice shirt with Jim Rice in the background.
Kintees, natch.

Heh. Just remember why that pic makes me look like I'd just swallowed two gallons of Srircha.
I'd just swallowed two gallons of Srircha.

Don't lie- You only swallowed 1.75 gallons. The rest you wound up wearing

True. So true.
But at least the sauce matched the illustration of Jim.
It just turned his moustache into a 'stache-beard. Kinda Clement-ish.

I hear da kine is offering a special value pack of the 'Let Jim In' shirt, complete with 2oz Sriracha sauce and Berocca tablets

This is all well and good, but the question that needs answering is this:
When will be Bill be calling Marty Silverstein?

Nice!
Thanks for the pic SDU. As for Bob...I'd say Tim Robbins with a bit of-dare I say it-Ditka?
It'll be good for me to get there an hour or so before you to get a jump start.
I'll have a Guinness in front of me, I'm sure.

went to the parade, in front of the library at Copley.
Most poignant moment was watching Schill hoist the trophy. He looked satisfied.
Goofiest moment, Paps dancing on the Dropkick's float. Did he take a line drive off the head? Jus' wondering.
Most important moment was when the owner float stopped and the "Sign Mike Lowell chant" morphed into the "Don't sign A-Rod" chant. They smiled. We'll see.
