It's good to hear that you're still spoiling Brenda, "empty pockets"! :D

Sounds like we need to get her into the baseball swap! Quite a few BoSox
fans in the group.
(Cubbies fan, myself)

They're called TTWLTH (The Team We Love To Hate) in the group -- she'd fit
right in. :) (Of course, the Yankees fans call them TTEELTH -- The Team
Everyone Else Loves To Hate. LOL!)
Which reminds me of a joke from the Car Talk Lame Joke archive:
A Red Sox fan liked to amuse himself by scaring every Yankees' fan he saw
strutting down the street in an obnoxious NY pinstripe shirt. He would
swerve his van as if to hit them, then swerve back just missing them. One
day while driving along, he saw a priest. He thought he would do a good
deed, so he pulled over and asked the priest, "Where are you going, Father?"
"I'm going to give Mass at St. Francis Church, about two miles down the
road," replied the priest.
"Climb in, Father. I'll give you a lift!"
The priest climbed into the passenger seat, and they continued down the
road. Suddenly, the driver saw a Yankees' fan walking down the road, and he
instinctively swerved as if to hit him. But, as usual, he swerved back onto
the road just in time. Even though he was certain that he had missed the
guy, he still heard a loud THUD. Not knowing where the noise came from, he
glanced in his mirrors but still didn't see anything. He then remembered the
priest, and he turned to the priest and said, "Sorry Father, I almost hit
that Yankees' fan." "That's OK," replied the priest "I got him with the
door."

For those folks in the UK, replace Yankees with Man United and Red Sox
with Newcastle.
Thanks, great joke (it was a joke, right?)
