Sorry I missed you this week. I was 
. I'll catch you next week, though!

elwood Posted Oct 15, 2001
As long as I don't catch what you have.
Hope you're feeling better.
(there isn't a "get well" smiley yet is there?)

Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 15, 2001
I'm *much* better, thanks! Yesterday was my first non-nap day, and now I'm back at w**k.
They don't have a get-well smiley ... unless you count the 
and

elwood Posted Oct 16, 2001
Did you say better and w**k in the same sentence?!
Glad to hear you are well.
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 16, 2001
No, they were definitely in two separate sentences, even if they were on the same line! 
So, what were the conditions of our bet, anyway? I think I lost ... or won? I can't remember which one of us would be the loser, the loser, or the bigger loser?
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
elwood Posted Oct 17, 2001
I like to think you've won just for having played.
I know I have! It's the first time the Tiger's
have ever done anything for me.
This bet was making me remember that they traded one of my favorite players to the Mets - Howard Johnson. Remember him? He was around for your World Series championship, I believe.

Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 18, 2001
Of course I remember HoJo! Not only do I have his autograph, but I have a great picture of me between him and George Foster!

elwood Posted Oct 19, 2001
Lucky you!!!
If only we had kept him. We might have won another Series after '84.
(of course Kirk Gibson, Lance Parrish, Jack Morris, etc. left also)
So do you have other memorabilia of you with Mets legends.
(not implying that you are not a Mets legend)
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 19, 2001
Well, it's old 1986 stuff, but I have another picture of me and Lenny Dykstra. That's about it. Oh, I have an autographed book from Keith Hernandez. Now that's one *good* looking human being! *sigh*

I've been going to Tiger games for 30 years and have no photos of me with anyone!!
How do you manage this.
(Besides being a woman asking a man to pose with her for photos)

Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 22, 2001
They were publicity things ... you had to show up somewhere they were appearing, and fork over 5 bucks to have your picture taken with them ...
The book signing was at a bookstore right after the book was published ...

*points up*
Aaah! The sweet smell of failure has never been so...
sweet!
I do have lots of pictures of me around the old Tiger Stadium
in it's final year, including in the dugout!!
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
Shea the Sarcastic Posted Oct 23, 2001
That's very cool!
Actually, I hope that they'll be building a new Shea Stadium soon. They've been talking about it for years. But it's supposed to be pretty hi-tech. Retractable fields, retractable roof ... and the design is based on the old Ebbetts Field.
BTW, I got quite some reaction with my name! Yossarian Prefect thought that if I believed I sucked as much as the Tigers, that I was close to suicide!
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
elwood Posted Oct 24, 2001
Suicide...that's a fair description of the Tiger's season.
I hope your team has better luck with a new field than mine did.
I haven't met Yossarian Prefect is he part h2g2 and part Catch 22.
I guess that's h2catch22!

(hey any leftover 
)

Shea the Sarcastic Posted Nov 1, 2001
Sure ... carrot ... want some?
Your Guardian Angel Calling ...
elwood Posted Nov 1, 2001
Oooh, I looove carrot cake!
But my Mother is making my true favorite cake for me.
It's called coffee cake, but it doesn't taste like coffee.
There's coffee in it, but it tastes like a spice cake.
Like the great part of carrot cake - it's the frosting!
Sour cream frosting to be exact, yum!
I'm sure there won't be leftovers on Monday!
