Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

I don't understand loyalty to sports teams since there's so little continuity.

It's a nice illustration of the Doctrine of Anatta. The team is made up of different players than it was, different coaches, can be owned by different people, can move to a different city and change its name, but it is still, somehow, the same. Except when it is not, of course.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I once tried to explain the Buffy fandom to a rabid hockey fan I know. I said they're pretty much the same thing -- a group of people enjoying something, getting together, dressing weird, having fun. He was bewildered.

Some people juggle geese.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

As a die-hard Marlins fan we're more stunned when we do well rather than expecting it.

I didn't want to say it. Jinxes and whatnot.

Because books.

The Yankees winning this year has nothing to do with the Yankees winning decades ago.

But most people root for their city's team, or the city closest. And if you have two teams, like in baseball, you generally have one from each league, American and National. They have a few different rules. It's a tradition thing, partly. And years ago, teams didn't change up the roster as often as they do now.

I coughed! It doesn't count if I'm self-deprecating about it.
