LMAO!

With props to Kid for unknowingly providing the Gill Man GIF.

Because Republicans have control over the legislative, executive and by that control - the judiciary as well. So Democrats have to work extra hard at being as corrupt as leaders of our organization?

 

And we all know liberals are lazy and just expect handouts. They never said anything about working for them. Self-explanatory I thought.

Yeah...but it still hurts to see...

Not a post but it was a great quote from hawk today.

I like how if I position my screen right, I can see three of Jim's avatars going at the same time!

Although it is a good day to be a Sox fan, I'm also a bit depressed.

 

My dad passed away earlier this year; he was a huge Sox fan.  Of course, he is the one who made my brother, sister and myself into a Sox fan, and also converted my mom from Cubs to Sox.

 

He was the one that first brought me to Sox games at Old Comiskey Park and taught me all the rules, how to keep score and all the stories of Sox History.

 

He was there with me at a 93 playoff game vs the Jays, and we watched the Sox win the 2000 Central Division.  And after turning 21, we shared quite a few beers while watching the Cubs collapse in the 2003 playoffs.

 

As stupid or odd as it may have seemed, I dedicated this season to him.  And when the Sox had everything going their way in the first half, it seemed that maybe he had something to do with it!

 

So now that the Sox have wrapped up a playoff spot, it feels great, but it would be so much better if he was with me to celebrate.  There is nothing more I'd love tonight than to share a celebratory beer with you.

 

So  to you Dad; the Sox did this for you!

Likewise. I came to this thread to add the very same post.

Brought a whole bunch of them to my eye. Damn, that is a fine post. I suggest we all raise a glass this weekend, or right before the Tuesday game, for smalls2598's Dad, and anybody else who stuck with for all these years but is not around to see it now.

oh, but they ARE. And maybe by their help, we'll get to see something on earth that they didn't get to.

 

We can all hope, eh?

Ya, I'm not sure why I posted this in the posts of the months thread, I had it in my mind that it was quotes of the month.
