so foolish

Sometimes I am so retarded I amaze myself. My belief in the basic goodness of human behavior continues to amaze me. I have a coworker who refuses to treat me with any common human decency let alone any real respect. Most people if you treat them well and with respect they will treat you with respect. Here’s what I don’t quite comprehend, even dogs can be trained.

Maybe this is my thought problem. Dogs and cats can be trained. Birds and lizards cannot. The problem is I am treating this coworker like a mammal. I tried to throw this coworker a bone earlier today and I got bit, again. Maybe this coworker is more like a lizard. I What I need to do is tempt this coworker with a raw egg.

I think the bite is infected.

redsth win redsth win

Sorry for the harry caray impression. I'm just kind of excited. The reds are 2 and 1. 1st place! 161 and 1 - World Series!

Here's the real question, when did I become "that" old man. The one that sits in front of the TV yelling at Dusty Baker and Jeff Brantley. I actually yelled (out loud), "Screw you Brantley!" when Enarnation hit the walk off on Wednesday night.

What's next?

Mild Retardation

Are you familiar with those people that look normal, sound normal, but as soon as they speak, you know they aren't as smart as you and me? I know, I know, you're thinking, "Larry, you're describing the average liberal." Well, I am, but that's not who I'm talking about.

Have you ever had what seems like a reasonable exchange of ideas, only to have the person you're talking to draw a completely baffling conclusion? You're thinking, "Larry you're talking about the clueless automatons at the IRS." Well, I am, but that's not who I'm talking about.

Is there someone you know that in spite of overwhelming evidence, continues to insist that the outcome this time will be different? Yes I'm talking about Dusty Baker. Dusty, COREY PATTERSON IS A PROVEN 260 HITTING CHUMP! PLEASE PLAY SOMEONE THE FANS CAN ENJOY! At least stop hitting the man leadoff. Please. Seriously, automatic outs should be avoided.
