number 4 freddie bynum? dude, sorry...
wanna know the best and most entertaining trio of fellas with whom to see a baseball game? i'll tell you -- tom, oliver, and greg. last night was a brilliant night at PNC park. and the real treat? the bucs actually won!
my sincerest apologies to cubs right fielder #4 freddie bynum, who got mercilessly heckled by my dear friends for much of the game. freddie -- you didn't do shit in the game, but you didn't tell us to fuck off, either. you're a trooper. good game.
you know how they shoot hot dogs into the stands sometimes between innings? well, this was all fine and good until i paid attention to the song that they blast from the scoreboard/jumbotron announcing this little ritual. it goes like this:
it's time to shoot some hot dogsum, what? "catch some meat"? gross.
it's time to shoot some hot dogs
it's time to shoot some hot dogs
so you can catch some meat.
oh, and the girl pierogie, jalapeno hannah, actually won the pierogie race last night! i've never seen this before! score one for the chicks!
but the true high point of the night, the horrifying holy saturday defining moment, was driving back through oakland after the game and stopping at a traffic light alongside a car full of nuns. now, we're in tom's jeep, music blaring, greg and oliver are standing up through the sunroof-thing, and what song is on the radio? it's that eminem/nate dogg song "shake that", which rather un-romantically says "shake that ass for me" in the chorus. and the chorus was what was playing while we were next to the nuns. so, long story short? the nuns got serenaded.
go bucs! and happy easter to all!

um, you assume -- unfairly -- that the nuns in that car disapproved (as they drove to easter mass). well, i'm not defending the refrain... but are not eminem's next words in that song...
"I'm a menace, a dentist, an oral hygienist
Open your mouth for about four or five minutes
Take a little bit of this flouride rinse..."
it's painfully obvious that he's talking about confession. It's the priest as "[the] menace, [the] dentist, [the] oral hygienist." all it takes is four or five minutes of opening up and thine Lord shall "rinse" you of sin.
silly, silly, girl.
oh, to not be anonymous...

well, of course the nuns were diggin' it. only a fool would think that eminem would wax poetic about anything, erm, inappropriate. i couldn't tell for certain, but i think the nuns were listening to lil' kim. they're able to hear the music for what it is -- a spiritual celebration of god-given gifts. it's like my catholic school teachers always said, in an attempt to get us surly teenagers to sing in mass, "when you sing, you pray twice."
amen.
