The Babe

I didn't take my camera up north, which is fortunate for you all, cuz all you would have seen is us cleaning up the yard and then layin around. However, if I'd brought a tape recorder you would have heard a lot of GB bashing and talk about mandating health care. See? It's your lucky day!

Instead,for the sake of starting a new thread....
I present to you Babe Ruth.

e the way he stayed down on that grounder. Does he have a gun for an arm?

Nestor said...

What is he playing? Short, 2nd? Reck beat me to the comment on staying down on it.

Linda said...

derstand that first comment. ;)

He throws well, but he's so small still, he doesn't have the strength to really gun it. He lifts free weights sometimes. Seriously..it's very funny. One morning he couldn't get his play gun cocked so he put it down, picked up the weights and did 10 curls, and then cocked his gun.

Linda said...

They alternate positions. Mostly he's in the outfield I think. He's the smallest on the team. He's playin with some 3rd graders.

We watched 'Bedtime Stories' yesterday. It was really good. Adam Sandler was just as funny, without being raunchy. Best line of the movie (the first night he was telling his niece and nephew a bedtime story) "I'm not reading you this Communist Crap!" His sister had a bunch of books for the kids about saving the wetlands and global warming, etc. His sister and her friend were the Prius type, and he was the anti-Prius type. You'd like it Reck.

Linda said...

Haven't seen that one yet, but it looks cute. Kids wanna see the next Night in the Museum (Smithsonian) that comes out on the 22nd.

You guys rushin out to see Angels and Demons on Friday? ;) I read the book a long time ago and enjoyed it, so if we don't go, I'll probably rent it. I don't remember books very well, so it'll be new to me.

Nestor said...

I don't know. I'd actually like to see the first one, but Carmen isn't too stoked about it. Most people from church that I've talked to said that it was a real good mystery if you take out the anti-religious stuff. But I think it mostly bashes Catholicism anyway, I've done enough of that myself. I think it's why Nacho Libre didn't do too well. The catholics didn't take to it. But I thought it was hilarious.

Linda said...

Actually, if we're talking strictly "was it a good movie" w/out thinking of the agenda, etc., I didn't think the first was that great. I think the stories are really good, but it didn't translate as well as I'd hoped. I'm expecting the same for this one.

RecknHavic said...

"derstand that first comment. ;)"

Very funny!

Not much of an Adam Sandler fan but we'll prob redbox it on your referral.

RecknHavic said...

I can't remember, is he playn coach pitch now?

Linda said...

He's playin coach pitch till the last 3 painful innings..then it's kid pitch.

Linda said...

Kids have a half day tomorrow, so I thought we'd do somethin special. Like do something we only do a couple times a year.
Yep, we're goin to the dentist. Seriously...how can they not love me??

Linda said...

gn..headin up to watch the game/doze off.

RecknHavic said...

That sounds...fun.

Well, it was NOT a good sports nite tonite.

& on tyhat note, gn

Nestor said...

Sorry about your boys Reck. It's a good thing Stu Jackson reversed the Flagrant 2 on Artest. It shouldn't have even been a flagrant foul. Artest got his hand on the ball. Hard foul yes. Flagrant no. Has the NBA gotten sissified?

Linda said...

Wow..did I read that right? Lakers won by 40 pts? Holy cow. I crashed when they were down by 16.

Yeah, tough night for both teams. Thursday's gonna be somethin.

RecknHavic said...

Yeah, they refs atarted over reactin cause of the stuff from the first couplke a gms. I still think we can win next one and make this series go 7 gms. Can we win series...doubtful.

Wings in 7!

Linda said...

Thanks for the tree!! Is it cheating if I buy coins? No, I know it's stupid, but I asked if it was cheating.

Lost finale tnite!

Linda said...

Do ya ever get caught bein a dork with your kids when you didn't know anyone was in ear shot? I was sendin the boys into a public restroom and was caught sayin, "don't touch anything, wash your hands and don't talk to strangers. Now go.. and may the force be with you."
oops.

RecknHavic said...

Ha!

All the time. Only dif is I seek out others in earshot, just to embarrass my kids. You haven't lived till you've started singin The Star Spangled Banner in a crowded Chili's. Their faces turn scarlet!

Linda said...

:) You're braver than I am.

Linda said...

These gals on Lost sure change their minds a lot.

And yea! We saw Rose and Bernard!

RecknHavic said...

THAT...WAS....AWESOME!!

I may hafta time travel forward to 2010, cause I don't know that I can wait that long till the next episode.

OK,my theory...

It is good vs evil; Jacob represents good & the other dude (the doppelganger Locke) represents bad. Remember the other dude sayn they're all corrupt & Jacob still was searchin for some that weren't?

It's your basic good vs evil show.

Linda said...

It was really good.

Remind me of "the other dude" tho. I don't remember that part.

Linda said...

Do you think they're gonna be present time next season? And will certain people find each other? The whole destiny thing?

RecknHavic said...

Ok, I went back & watched the beginnin again. Jacob 7 the other dude are talkin on the beach (Jacob's wearin wht & the other dude's wearin blk btw). Remenber, the other dude was lookin for a loop hole or somethin.

Linda said...

Oh! Yeah yeah yeah. The VERY beginning! Right...who was that? (Rhetorical question.) Interesting. Thanks for clarifying.

RecknHavic said...

I'm kinda bummed that Locke's still dead. Maybe the "reset" brings him back.

Linda said...

It should. Of course he'll be paralyzed again, so he won't be happy about that.
Wait. He won't remember NOT being paralyzed on the island so it shouldn't be a disappointment!

RecknHavic said...

Ok, no spoilers then. hadn't realizes you slid to 2nd in original. D lockin up ND, good job D!

I am, w/out a doubt, Mr consistency. How did I ever win last time?

Linda said...

ugh!! DVR screwed up the taping. No, not ME..I know what you're thinking. I have to wait till CBS posts it. If I weren't so happy about the game, I'd be really ticked.

Nestor said...

Sounds like operator error to me. ;)

Linda said...

Hey! Peanut gallery! It's not my fault!

Really, I think I have a dvr problem. It taped somethin, but it was all pixelated garbage, and I couldn't fast forward it even. Who knows....
