==============================
Hey Michael!

->  HN> I've heard the Kiss Cam mentioned before...
-> 
-> We were wondering what would have happened if we'd
-> been put on the screen. What's the universal sign
-> for "just friends"?
-> 
Dunno, just sitting there nicely I expect (grin).

->  HN> Safeco has never had a "kissing cam" but
->  HN> the gay ladies claimed we did, and they
->  HN> claimed it was just a simple peck on the
->  HN> lips that got them warned
-> 
-> Not as though you'd pick on two chicks if you did
-> have such a camera. I would have thought that the
-> potential for screams of discrimination might come
-> from certain couples' NOT being featured.
-> 
Could be, I'm careful to make my phrasing
unisex....such as "Folks, we need for you to
keep it G rated please!"...but now if it's a
same sex couple we have to get our Captain
involved, get video "evidence" and "permission"
before we can do any of that...sigh!

->  HN> But now we
->  HN> are "on alert" for more possible "political"
->  HN> attempts to generate publicity for their
->  HN> agenda.
-> 
-> I see nothing wrong with doing victimless things,
-> but they seem to be doing their best to make them
-> nonvictimless.
->
Fact of life, people and groups have
agendas...we just have to deal with it!
 
->  -> Not completely opposite field, it went to right-center.
->  -> An impressive shot.
->  HN> A shot to center, even right center is more impressive than
->  HN> just a shot down the line, even if it's an opposite field shot.
-> 
-> That was a home run hit with authority. What I heard was
-> quite a shot; what I saw was two outfielders, one on each
-> side of the 371 sign, looking forlornly outward. By the time
-> I refocused on the infield, Hernandez was rounding third
-> getting congratulations from all and sundry.
-> 
Oh yeah, it was a "frozen rope"..and he's been 
getting accolades from the local press for it...not
that he's too happy now, got put on the 15 day
DL yesterday and isn't too happy with that...but
he admits (hard to hide) that his foot still can't take
the strain of pitching off the mound for any length 
of time yet.

->  HN> well we whupped the padres last night..a team that is
->  HN> as sorry as the M's this year...and guess what?
->  HN> they share a training facility in Peoria AZ...
->  HN> Wonder if something is in the water there?
-> 
-> I don't know. One of my friends lives a mile from the
-> stadium there, so I've seen the Padres a few times;
-> they do look pretty pathetic most of the time.
->
Have you looked at the M's lately? Of course they
swept the padres, and so far have split with the 
BlueJays...maybe a turnaround is in progress!
 
On an aside, I'm shooting the Tall ships festival 
here in Tacoma the rest of this week...got my
media credentials on the 1st, the lady who 
helped me is a Haley (by marriage) and her
hubby is one of C**'s cousins...when I mentioned
I knew her through a former boyfriend...we both
exchanged the same look (grin)...and the 
comment was made...is the former boyfriend
"normal"? to which I replied...that's why 
he's "former" (grin). Evidently she's back
in Alaska again.
chat with you soon!
