Could you become a US Citizen?
Got a 16...#8 and #19 wrong, just skimmed the 'original 13' question too quickly, and I put '9' justices because I just wasn't sure (I believe it's 13 though, right?) It is 9

Never too old to learn
A farmer was sitting on his porch one day when a young man drives inand comes to the door. "Sir, I was driving by and noticed you had a lot of milkweed in yourpasture. Would you mind if I went out and got some milk?" You don't get milk from milkweed!" the farmer replied." Oh yes," said the young man, "I have a degree in Agriculture fromTexas A&M, I know all about it." "Well, help yourself," said the farmer. He soon saw the young man coming back to his car with two buckets full of milk. The next day the farmer was again sitting on his porch when the sameyoung man drove up. "Sir, yesterday when I was getting milk, I noticed you had somehoneysuckle in the fence row. I wondered if you would mind if I gotsome honey?" "You don't get honey from honeysuckle!" said the farmer. Again,the young man explained about his degree from A&M, so the farmeragreed to let him collect some honey. Soon the young man came back tohis car with two buckets full of honey. The next day the same young man drove up to the farmer's house. "Sir, yesterday when I was getting the honey, I noticed you had somepussywillow down by the creek." The farmer said, "Let me get my shoes and I'll go with you "

It just shows that Miami drivers are FAR worse. If you put that many people at any South Florida intersection without a light, they'd be hauling all the wounded out on a bus.

As soon as he gets his internet back, I hope he plans on looking for a new A/C. That one looks as though it kicked the bucket years ago.

Congrats to Dontrelle Willis
Good for him. Hopefully this distinction will begin to mean more as there becomes a hefty total placed next to it, although I hate to bring up what has happened to pitchers the year they reach this mark. I thought of the exact same thing, they hit the top win total, they're hitting the road.

A funny highlight video a Jays fan made.
Nice find, Holly. The music cracks me up. Worked for Benny Hill too.

Yankee Stadium
Nice pics. You left in the 7th inning? The game was 13-4 or 5 and we were in a strange city. The subway was PACKED and not many trains do their routes at night. We ended up having to switch trains 3 times plus the path train that leads you to Jersey City. Grand Total: 2hr 30mins from Yankee Stadium, The Bronx to Jersey City, New Jersey. I'm afraid to ask this question, but what were you doing in Jersey City (and which part?) North Bergen. Cousin lives there :thumbup One of my sisters lived there for several years, she is now in Hoboken. I lived in Jersey City for years.

What ever happened to Adam Greenberg?
He was promoted to AAA, but I have no idea why. His highest BA in AA was .212. He is now batting .118 in Iowa.

Hurricane Preparedness Time Again
To: Ex-Floridians, present Floridians, and future Floridians or those who know a Floridian. We're about to enter the peak of the hurricane season. Any day now, you're going to turn on the TV and see a weather person pointing to some radar blob out in Atlantic or the Gulf of Mexico and making two basic meteorological points: (1) There is no need to panic. (2) We could all be killed. Yes, hurricane season is an exciting time to be in Florida. If you're new to the area, you're probably wondering what you need to do to prepare for the possibility that we'll get hit by "the big one.'' Based on our experiences, we recommend that you follow this simple three-step hurricane preparedness plan: STEP 1. Buy enough food and bottled water to last your family for at least three days. STEP 2. Put these supplies into your car. STEP 3. Drive to Nebraska and remain there until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, statistics show that most people will not follow this sensible plan. Most people will foolishly stay here in Florida. We'll start with one of the most important hurricane preparedness items: HOMEOWNERS' INSURANCE: If you own a home, you must have homeowners' hurricane insurance. Fortunately, this insurance is cheap and easy to get, as long as your home meets two basic requirements: (1) It is reasonably well-built and resembles an Egyptian pyramid (2) It is located in Nebraska. Unfortunately, if your home is located in Florida, or any other area that might actually be hit by a hurricane, most insurance companies would prefer not to sell you hurricane insurance, because then they might be required to pay YOU money, and that is certainly not why they got into the insurance business in the first place. So you'll have to scrounge around for an insurance company, which, if you find one, will probably charge you an annual premium roughly equal to the replacement value of your house. At any moment, this company can drop you like used dental floss. Since Hurricane Andrew, I have had an estimated 27 different home-insurance companies. This week, I'm covered by the Bob and Big Stan Insurance Company, under a policy which states that, in addition to my premium, Bob and Big Stan are entitled, on demand, to my kidneys. SHUTTERS: Your house should have hurricane shutters on all the windows, all the doors, and -- if it's a major hurricane -- all the toilets. There are several types of shutters, with advantages and disadvantages: Plywood shutters: The advantage is that, because you make them yourself, they're cheap The disadvantage is that, because you make them yourself, they will fall off. Sheet-metal shutters: The advantage is that these work well, once you get them all up. The disadvantage is that once you get them all up, your hands will be useless bleeding stumps, and it will be December. Roll-down shutters: The advantages are that they're very easy to use, and will definitely protect your house. The disadvantage is that you will have to sell your house to pay for them. "Hurricane-proof'' windows: These are the newest wrinkle in hurricane protection: They look like ordinary windows, but they can withstand hurricane winds! You can be sure of this, because the salesman says so. He lives in Nebraska "Hurricane Proofing Your Property: As the hurricane approaches, check your yard for movable objects like barbecue grills, planters, patio furniture, visiting relatives, etc.; you should, as a precaution, throw these items into your swimming pool (if you don't have a swimming pool, you should have one built immediately). Otherwise, the hurricane winds will turn these objects into deadly missiles. EVACUATION ROUTE: If you live in a low-lying area, you should have an evacuation route planned out. (To determine whether you live in a low-lying area, look at your driver's license; if it says "Florida" you live in a low-lying area.) The purpose of having an evacuation route is to avoid being trapped in your home when a major storm hits. Instead, you will be trapped in a gigantic traffic jam several miles from your home, along with two hundred thousand other evacuees. So, as a bonus, you will not be lonely. HURRICANE SUPPLIES: If you don't evacuate, you will need a mess of supplies. Do not buy them now! Florida tradition requires that you wait until the last possible minute, then go to the supermarket and get into vicious fights with strangers over who gets the last can of SPAM In addition to food and water, you will need the following supplies: 23 flashlights. At least $167 worth of batteries, that turn out, when the power goes out, to be the wrong size for the flashlights. Bleach. (No, I don't know what the bleach is for. NOBODY knows what the bleach is for. But it's traditional, so GET some!) A 55-gallon drum of underarm deodorant. A big knife that you can strap to your leg. (This will be useless in a hurricane, but it looks so cool.) A large quantity of raw chicken, to placate the alligators. (Ask anybody who went through Katrina; after the hurricane, there WILL be irate alligators.) $35,000 in cash or diamonds so that, after the hurricane passes, you can buy a generator from a man with no discernible teeth. Of course these are just basic precautions. As the hurricane draws near, it is vitally important that you keep abreast of the situation by turning on your television and watching TV reporters in rain slickers stand right next to the ocean and tell you over and over how vitally important it is for everybody to stay away from the ocean. Good luck and remember: it's great living in paradise! Those of you who aren't here yet should come. Really!
