Malevolent Midsummer Musings

  • Our fundamental right to life does not include a blank check written on the account of the lives of others.  Any demand otherwise exposes a base selfishness that should have passed prior to kindergarten.

 A society of children cannot survive, no matter how all-embracing the government nanny.

  •  If you shoot into the general direction of my backyard, the response would be two to the chest, one to the head; even if I did deflect your bullet.
  • The seven run limit per inning doesn’t mean that you should send a second grader home from first base on a shallow line drive to challenge the arm of the kindergartner in the outfield.  If you’re in a tight game and you do it, you’re an idiot. If you’re ahead by 10 runs in the last inning and you do it, you’re a certified a** hole.

    We always let the other team ‘decide’ whether to run. If they run, we run. There’s usually plenty of time to make up that ground!

    Yeah Gregg, in several instances I gave what I got, but sometimes it got ridiculous and I just wasn’t going to go there. My kids could do it “right” and still be successful, which was a pretty satisfying salve in dealing with the knuckleheads.
