Unhappy Why, oh, why

... do I subject myself to the folly that is Cubs baseball? This was supposed to be the year. No more "wait 'til next year". But it's so hard to play baseball with one hand around your throat (choke, choke).

Oh, well. At least I'll have more quality time to work on my truck instead of sitting in front of the tube waiting for the Cubs to find yet another way to break my heart.

Ha! I have been a Charger fan for 20 years. I have a TV in the garage and I have it on when I'm working on the truck. You really can do two things at once, especially if one of those things is going to be predictably painful.

For the same reasons you (We) work on the Ol' Trucks - We just love to be humiliated, beaten severly about the head and shoulders and we never learn rom our past mistakes.
