How long

[reyd reid reed]

is too long? And what, if anything, constitutes too much?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Plus, I'm getting sleepy and need something to distract me and keep me all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

1. More than a handful is too much

Didn't you ever see Weird Science?

[flvegan]

4. One risks a sprained thumb.

Or is that tongue?

[petronius]

6. It's a serious but under-appreciated risk

Someone should do a public service announcement about it, but sadly, society doesn't really care if millions of innocent men (and women) suffer from sprained thumbs (or tongues). :(

[reyd reid reed]

8. Oh, the horror...

:scared:

[flvegan]

9. That ain't suffering.

It's a good damn time realized.

[petronius]

11. But what do you call the 4-6 weeks with your thumb and/or tongue in a splint?

:shrug:

[reyd reid reed]

12. The longest 4-6 weeks

of your life.

[petronius]

17. That's what I'm saying! It's a horror...

It sounds as though our friend from FL can find the silver lining and persevere through the pain, but I have a more melancholic temperament...

[reyd reid reed]

21. Awwwww....poor, poor baby.

It's all in the balance, y'know.

[flvegan]

13. For the thumb: time to call in the second string.

You've got two hands.

As for the tongue...I'd call that fond memories.

[Inchworm]

2. Are you calling me out?

:rofl:

:hi:

[reyd reid reed]

7. Not me...I told you I'd keep it a secret.

:D

[SPKrazy]

3. If it drags the floor it is

too long

:P

dogs tails right?

:rofl:

[reyd reid reed]

5. those....and

elephant tusks. You choose.

[Gormy Cuss]

10. Too long is too long.

Too much on the other hand is never enough. ;-)

[reyd reid reed]

15. On the other hand is one thing

but what about too much in the first place?

[Gormy Cuss]

18. Too much on either hand is never enough.

:evilgrin:

[Swede]

14. Sometimes 8 years is too long.

Way too long.

[reyd reid reed]

16. Just don't let it become

too much.

:hug:

19. 'Too long'

is the 12 days between now and the first spring game.*



"Too much" is an oft-repeated lyric: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdzDMtUuMoA









*Dodgers vs. Atlanta, Thursday, Feb. 28, 10:05 a.m. PST, KABC 790 — and it'd fuckin' better be on XM or somebody's gonna get hoit.

[reyd reid reed]

20. Dodgers go two hours earlier

than my Cubbies.

Cubbies play the Giants on the 28th at 1:05 MT. WGN radio. No tee vee...but they're gonna be on WGN tee vee on March 8. And March 9. And ESPN2 vs the Rox on the 21st.

ohboyohboyohboyohboyohboy.

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

22. I may have a doubleheader

Dunno if KNBR's gonna carry the Giants-Cubs game, since it's not on a weekend. But, it is the spring opener, so they damned well oughta.

Then again, I dunno yet if XM's gonna pick up KABC's broadcast of the Dodgers-Atlanta game, since they haven't posted a schedule. If they don't, I'm liable to get destructive.

[reyd reid reed]

23. Nah....just wait 'til noon

and listen to the Cubs. At least one of us'll be able to.

:)
