Feeling the pinch
Doug:
So the normally tight-lipped Megan the Vegan from HR let it slip that there might be some riffs coming?
Bill:
I can neithah confirm nor deny …
Doug:
Oh, c'mon, guy, don't go all Steinbrennah on my ass.
Bill:
Look, Doug, you know about as much as I do. All I've heard is there's going to be some, er, cutbacks because of the economy.
Doug:
But we're safe, right?
Bill:
You know, despite two recent World Series victories, I still have a lot of Game 6 86 in my DNA, so I figure it's always best to plan for the worst.
Doug:
Frig. When I prayed to the bearded prophet to "make me more like Manny," being unemployed going into Spring wasn't really what I had in mind.
Thank you for letting me play with you all today!

Bob,
At the risk of projecting, with no offence intended to Abby and as an 18 year veterean of marital bliss.. you have my complete and utter sympathy. An inner sanctum has been forever violated.
Go Sox!

Manny was just offered a 2 year deal to consider by the local squad. Oh snap.

Welcome, Abby! So nice to have more female blood here, and great to hear ur voice after feeling we know you from Bob! This is a creepy, loveable and surly bunch. Hearts of gold, dirty minds, and quick tongues, just how I prefer my friends. :) oh and they seem to know some stuff about baseball....
