An actual interaction I had with a boney old man with stringy white hair, flowing from underneath a red Marines cap, at the Wal-Mart in Marion, Indiana:
He walks up to Tink and I as we are in line at one of the self-checkout lines, sees that we have two large pumpkins in our cart, and smiles.
"Whoa, those are pretty big pun'kins," he says, getting dangerously close to my personal space boundaries. I smile and nod.
"Those right there are Christmas pun'kins."
Again I laugh and nod my head and add a, "Yup," politely.
"You know, I always wondered what it would be like to cut open a pun'kin and it be a watermelon inside."
I chuckle and make eye-contact with Tink. She smiles at me and we both widen our eyes to each other.
"It'd be called a pun'kamelon," he declares, emphatically and proudly.
"I guess so," I responded, not really knowing what else to say.
He laughs to himself and shuffles off.

If you were an analyst for ESPN or Fox, you would be killing them with your picks.
Why do you think that is? Are you just that good, or are they that stupid?
By the way, I just want to take a minute, and declare that I am still undefeated, even after having a shitty week in fantasy. eat that farrell
congrats on that.
i dont know why im picking well. i usually just pick the better team as opposed to all the factors that go into every game.
but week 8 killed me. first under .500 week.
we'll see how it all turns out.
