erica told me that there's something for everyone in baseball.
i should have listened!
and i should have watched the world series!!!! because then i wouldn't have missed one of my faves (See below).
(well, technically, now i didn't miss him because i obviously found the footage online. and not only did i get to watch it, but i'm sharing it with you luckies!)
here he is for you. chris daughtry. (yes, he's his own sentence.)
and if that didn't do it for you...

ReplyDeleteThat erica, right? And wow. People keep leaving Fine Print. I wonder what's the deal... As for those links, LOL at Nathan's "How to know you have a plot." umm... that would be helpful.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are too cute! :o) <3
Rushing right over to read Cheryl and Nathan's posts - thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteOoh, great links. I love it when someone else looks up these things for me :) Thanks.
ReplyDeleteOf all the wise things I've said, THIS is what you give me credit for?? ;)
ReplyDeleteI forgot about a couple of these links, thanks. Although I still can't get on the Bransford blog...

I went around all during the World Series explaining to people who asked that I lost interest in baseball during the strike, and that's when I started liking tennis instead, so no, I wasn't watching. And then I finally realised that I was giving out more information than people were asking for. Ooops, I did it again!
ReplyDeleteHello! I haven't been around here in such a long time. :-)
ReplyDeleteEvery day is writing day for me. It's NaNoWriMo!
