Softball: Community
Dear People,
As tormented as I had been by the bitter prospect of aerobicism denied, I'm delighted to report that in defiance of the contemptible rain, Chris Fure, Frieda, Frank, Kira, Debbie and myself converged at Saul's Deli for a succulent and joyous banquet of finely cured Jew Food. Naturally, it was at this gathering where I realized anew that life is indeed with people, whereas softball itself is an utterly meaningless distraction which is embarrassing to watch, play, or even be associated with.
Yeah, when I find myself with good folk and grub, I happen to get my epiphanies hard, fast and stirring. And therefore there will be a game at Codornices this Sunday at 11, IF I get enough commits by this Friday morning…Raymond

Softball: Trust
Dear People,
There will probably be a game at Codornices this Sunday at 11AM, and as of now there are still five slots left. Once again, you will need to
check email that morning if it rains a lot between now and then, or if climatic conditions are wet, frightening, or worst of all, ambiguous (I cannot tell you how much I suffer whenever I’m forced to choose between your critical need for aerobic release and the manageable but admittedly increased risk of flu, scurvy and syphilis).
Please bring $3 for the field, which is a lot to ask although if you do so, next week I’ll give you back $4 for your troubles as long as you get your best friend to give me $5 for an implicit guarantee on an analogous deal moving forward. Yeah, some things are just win-win…Ray 845-7552

Sunday: 10AM: Screwed Again, like Climatic Clockwork, but….
As you know, my spleen fills with the bile of 1,000 newly jilted lovers whenever I have to cancel a game, but the hard reality is that it’s drizzling heavy, it’s icy, and according to the NEXRAD Radar, it’s about to get much worse.
However: If seven other people write me back in the next half hour that they’re into ultimate frisbee or football, I’ll make it happen.

Softball: Lunch Instead!
To take the edge off our sorrows, several of us will be getting together for a yummy meal at Barney Burger at 1 PM (The one @ Shattuck and Ceder).
Let me know by 12:30 if you’d like to join us so we can grab the right size table…Ray
