Girls always to for the famous nerdy types, not the true nerds who sit on their couches in their boxers working on the STATS for others waiting for their moms to bring breakfast down to the basement so they can eat and then go to sleep.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.'

My current Interwebs obsession is pretty awesome. Also, my website is called ChatterBalks Dot Com. It's not being updated right now. Hope for more at your own risk.

…predicted an Obama win back in March.
if that was March 2007, I’d be impressed. Otherwise, join the club.
