Well, a terrible player in the major leagues is still incredibly good compared to 99.9% of the population.
Any major leaguer is one of the five hundred best players in the world, give or take the top 10% of the Japanese leagues, some guys on the Cuban team, and the top 25 prospects in the minors.
Chopped liver is gross. You people are sick and clueless and weird.
One plane trip to visit my mother I sat next to and exchanged numbers with the #121 ranked male tennis player in the world. My mother was all "121? WhatEVER."
I'm like "HE'S WORLD RANKED. I WILL NEVER BE WORLD RANKED AT ANYTHING." OMG. Just because she has her niche in the world of things doesn't mean I can't drool.
I just thought to look! My cousin is currently ranked #94 in the world in doubles!
While I was at Fry's I almost fell prey to their checkout tempters--they had photo album keychains. Luckily they only had the 120 pic ones in horrible colours, so it stopped me, but would that be a good idea? Buy my parents and my sister photo album keychains and load them up with family pics and other photos I've taken, as a stocking stuffer equivalent?
That sounds like a great stocking stuffer, ita.
Digitial, I assume? Because I was trying to picture a 120 pic album I'd want to hang off my keys and no.
Stash booze in this AT-AT liquor cabinet before the Rebels come
It's made of wood (as liquor cabinets should be) and looks rather nice.

You're a very astute woman.
Thanks--I think I'm going to go with it, Scrappy. I'll head up there after work.
Ticket bought for home, and time off requested. Business/first class (!!) and travel insurance, although I'll probably cancel that, since I don't think it covers other people's medical emergencies.
A guy who plays in the World Series isn't, well, chopped liver. But boy, that article I found about him made it sound like they should have had the janitor playing his position instead.
That's got to smart, that even 30 years after the fact somebody's writing this stuff about you. On the other hand, somebody's writing about you.

Ooooh.
What a great idea! I have a ton of old family photos that my dad scanned a few years back: this would be a really fun thing to do with them. Hmm, do I have the time between now & Christmas? Maybe.
How big are they, ita? Can you actually see the photos?

They're an inch and a half diagonal. I thought it was a decent compromise between visibility and portability, but you will have to select your pictures with a bit of care. I'm thinking of the photo keyring my mother and sister carry now (a photo sandwiched in plastic) and it's about the same size, and you can see three of us full body well enough to make it a decent souvenir.
I would guess it depends on the dpi or whatever in the frame. I have a several-years-old iPod mini, and the video clarity is shockingly good. Although I guess it's two inches.
