    Not sure, but Captain Marvelous was just asking when Soda was going to get their team together.

    How hard would it be to get a Daily Heights team together? Anybody interested? I'm missing my Saturday softball.

    I'm in like Aidan Quinn! Um... well I'm in. If we can't get an actual game together maybe we should just walk over to the fields and challenge park slopers right there on the spot.

    SPURNED!! Check out this e-mail from Tony:

    "Andy... warring teammates,

    "I think the general consensus is that this softball game a private squabble best settled by the two bars.... sorry Soda. Like family, we only feel that we can yell rude things at each other. Legal council confirms it's best that way. Tell Soda that we'll beat the pants of them in the Swim Suit competition at the end of the season. Get waxing on those backs boys!"

    "FYI, I'm making two large mascot heads for each team: Angry ball (Freddy's) and drunk ball (OC)."

    "I'll see you at Rock-Paper-Scissors on the 26th at Freddy's."

    "And everyone, try to make it to the last Karaoke of the season next
    Wednesday, May 18. We're taking a break until fall to make room for D and D."

    [ed note: Yes, that's Dungeons & Dragons...!]


    "Cheers,
    Tony Limuaco"

    So geeks have displaced the jocks at Soda? I know its cool to be nerdy these days but... damn. Whats next, Klingon speaking waitresses, maybe we'll all meet on some forum on the "internet".

    I thought I had come so far only to come full circle... shit.

    D+D is going to be at Freddy's, not Soda. And they are going to pack the house. There is an enormous pent-up need for "adult D+D" in this city.

    Ah yes... D+D. I need to dig up my 19th level Beserker from '83. It's been long, too long, since I've so lovingly fondled the 16-sided dice between palm and forefinger.

    As for the bar softball, it wasn't a spurn of soda... it was an attempt to keep what is already proving to be unmanageable 2 team league from going out with NHL-style over-expansion.

    Maybe an idea for the next Daily Heights get together: a Prospect Heights N (I suppose that's the direction?) -- Park to Atlantic vs. Prospect Heights S -- Park to Eastern Parkway softball game?
