Quote 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

Thought for the Week
|
|
A reporter was attempting to get a human interest story out of a very, very old man in a government-run home for the aged.
"Grandpa," said the young reporter, "how would you feel if you suddenly got a letter telling you that a distant relative had left you ten million dollars?"
"Son," said the old man slowly, "I would still be ninety-five years old, wouldn't I?"
