Go Pudge. Don't develop a curse and don't let a lawyer become an owner. They suck.

The only thing I like about Florida (flat, ugly architecture in most places, except Jupiter Island and some bits of South Art Deco Miami Beach, monocromatic scenery, too many folks that remind me that my final exit is not so distant as to be invisible, loud, obnoxious, superficial, viciously partisan and unfair and media addicted Wexler and Deutsch, and that annoying airbrain mush-mouth McBride, and Jeb is too fat now, and too connected to his feminine side), is you, only you.

No, I don't like Disneyworld or alligators in the wild either. I am a curdmudgeon.

Thanx, Luis, I needed that! ... los Yankis ... I mean, really! [You did realize that the Yank colonies thrived on fish from the start, didn't you, hermano?]

SIMPLY FANTASTIC!!! Not only wonderful writing ..... amazing wit. Love it love it love it ........

[b9]

What a wit & what a writer...
What a treat you are.
This has got to be the most creative read so far.

I asked a FRiend a few months back,
"What makes FR worthwhile?"
My FRiend said, "Well for one thing,
Luis Gonzalez will make you smile."

<< Me?

I?m excited and looking forward to the upcoming All South Florida World Series between the Marlins, and our other home team, los Yankis. >>

Beautiful!

[RedBloodedAmerican]

los Yankis? Dry your feet before the Border Patrol arrives?

LOL!

Great piece, Luis. I enjoyed it, forwarding it on. Send it to Dave Barry, will ya?

[Catspaw]

Luis, I really hate the Yankees, but I really don't know if I can cheer for a team named after a fish.

[xsmommy]

loved it!

[gcruse]

Damned fine writing, Luis. The Barry is strong in you. :)

Things however, seem to have a funny way of working themselves out, and in the same way that the goat with the cork failed to achieve significant results after playing possum, the commentator being played as a scapegoat for not having corked it, will probably find significance in his seclusion, and come back swinging.
The other team of course, will never allow him to forget his rule breakage, and try to taint his game by constantly reminding everyone of his past transgressions. In an attempt to discredit every point made by the political commentator, and maybe even to make him out to be a hypocrite, and a master of the art of double speak.

Ahh, now I'm beginning to 'get it', Luis..
Reading tween the lines, it appears your remarks about "The other team" engendered some counterpoints that required "corking'..

Do I have the right idea?

[NMC EXP]

So LG, where do you stand on the "war on drugs"?

This must have been an interesting thread, bu I seem to have missed it. I have never seen so many post pulled on so short a thread.

[JohnnyZ]

I am very confused.

By this article.

Even though I understood it.

Actually, I tried my hand at satire, Dave Barry style, last week.

My "fans" kept me way too preoccupied to issue any heads-ups.
