softballs are hard

and being a pitcher i risk death with every pitch... sure, the dramatic reality of an up to seven ounce projectile that is about twelve inches in circumference weighing almost 200kg (mass) traveling at 150kph giving a pitcher about .4 seconds (science) to react coming at my head is just something we hope doesn't happen but could happen on any pitch (studies show) and i'll pitch up to a hundred pitches a game and yet, i love the game so i risk my life... and tonight i took one off the foot just below the shin pad i wear (between the instep and the talus with enough force to head into left field and really hurt, limp, limp... i finished the game and we won and i even got a hit after no longer having any feeling in the foot (that lasted only a minute or two, then the pain started), but i'll rest for the next thirty-six hours and hopefully be ok for proactice sunday and be fine for my next game which is monday night... and the foot icing continues...

and how are your feet?...

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
