A funny book

I like to read and I like to laugh. Recently I found a book that made me laugh out loud. It was so funny, I couldn't really read it on Bart, because I didn't want the other passengers to think I was crazy. The book is called "Here speeching american" and basically it's a collection of garbled english phrases, or phrases that are just hard to figure out, from around the world. Some of my favorites are:

"Shoes to make your street-walking more relaxed" - an ad slogan from Tokyo
"We try our best to decrease your life" - an ad slogan in China

And many more! Just pick up the book, open it at random and there will be something funny! Highly recommended.

What the . . .

Say it ain't so!!! Baron Davis to the Clippers?? That's just wrong! It's just not going to be the same with BD on the floor. Maybe the Warriors should sign Elton Brand.

Enough dreaming, and back to baseball. At least I can look forward to Albert Pujols hitting number 300. And the Cardinals are playing like they mean it. And the Cubs will collapse like they always do.
