Charlie Joiner was one of the first football archetypes for me. Like Jim Rice (the big, strong, slow footed slugger), Joiner was a precise route runner and a first down machine.

Charlie Joiner, JJ Jefferson, Kellen Winslow, and Chuck Muncie.

Dan Fouts at the controls.

Good times.

New English sentences, logically, in my mind, never before uttered in human history:

"Do you have the pharmacist's cheese?"

"Who peed on my dresser?"

"Get your feet out of the popcorn."

All three have been uttered in my presence.

"WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 — Two days before he resigned as defense secretary, Donald H. Rumsfeld submitted a classified memo to the White House that acknowledged that the Bush administration’s strategy in Iraq was not working and called for a major course correction."

(from www.nytimes.com)(http://tinyurl.com/yjvkc5)

Rumsfeld added that water is wet, rain usually falls from the sky, and golf clubs are a poor substitute for a soup spoon.

"Former Senator Rick Santorum."

Has a ring to it, doesn't it?

From a GOP fundraising email:

"Michael, as a steadfast supporter of the Republican Party, I know how committed you are to conservative principles... from winning the War on Terror, to keeping taxes and spending under control, to securing our borders. Nothing would be more disastrous for these principles than allowing Democrats to take control of the U.S. House and Senate."


...uh, yeah. Other than letting Republicans remain in control, that is.

Does anybody seriously believe that statement?

It wasn't just me who thought Tim Welke's strike zone intruded into the flight path for LaGuardia.
