This should have appeared two weeks ago*, but I was distracted by business. Imagine if I had a real job!
Surprise! Your favorite baseball team and your absolute least favorite baseball team of all the times have a mutually profitable relationship! Neither has any more integrity than the other! Despite being in the same geographic region both still get more money and attention than any other team –ehhh, excuse me, franchise– in the country, if not the world! Popeye will play for both!
But he’s such a splendid citizen he’ll even play for less important teams no one has heard of, like the Mets. Or rather, I suppose he’s playing against them, because it wouldn’t make sense for the ah thrower to be pitching an opposing force’s ball. Or if it did, it would be Popeye’s goal to catch the ball and protect it from further abuse. But instead of that he applies greater, opposing force to the object, which must hurt it a great deal, I think. As to why Popeye clutches a baseball bat club when he repels the ball with his mind, (for he still has the bludgeon in unswung position) that’s probably just one of the rules. Popeye always respects the law. Right?
I’ll never smile again.
No, Monki! Do not Meet Popeye! He is a bad man! Do not be like him!
Where have the heroes gone? What happened to all the good uneducated violent ruffians?

That’s known that cash makes people disembarrass. But what to do when one has no cash? The one way only is to try to get the loan and just auto loan.

But if I loan people money that was loaned to me surely I am destined to reembarrass!
