The Braves
I've been watching snippets of baseball here and there, but tonight I decided to just relax and watch an entire game. So of course my team is losing four to nothing.
Wait. My new favorite player Cameron Maybin just hit a two run homer. So it's 4 to 2 and I'm feeling hopeful.
Speaking of the Braves, the Thirdlanders are reading picture book biographies. I have 2 picture book biographies about each famous person. Yesterday I asked a Thirdlander why he wasn't reading a biography. He said, "I already read the book about Hank Aaron."
I countered with, "Did you read both books about him?"
He parried with, "There's only one there."
So then I had to walk over to the book bins and find the second book. I found it in about 22 seconds. When I held it up, the Thirdlander said, "That's about Henry Aaron, not Hank Aaron."
I set him straight and he got to reading.
Shoot. Now it's 5 to 2. I am back to being annoyed now.
And as I've been looking for links, the Reds have scored again. Braves, think of Henry or Hank Aaron, and get your acts together.
