Hello Fellow Travelers!
On this short and sometimes ridiculous journey we call,"Life". Someone asked me who the "fellow travelers" were, I thought it was pretty clear, but here is a freaking clarification for those guys, (and I mean men) who require it. I just watched a five and one half hour baseball game, (A's/Yankees not even the Giants!) I do my part, I willingly watch my other half's sports. (Well, one team, one sport and one year because I was stuck in front of the t.v. anyway, I thought I should at least learn something, but the point is, I watch!). So I've noticed that men have a few topics they can comfortably throw out there anytime with anyone. Sports is one of those topics that seems to even the playing field. If you know your sports you can talk to any man or get any man to talk. Baseball in particular, seems to cut through generations, levels of education even countries of origin.
Girls in particular, women in general spend lots of time wondering what lots of boys and men are thinking. These same females might have cured HIV, or developed a cure for any number of cancers, had they taken all that power and intellect and applied it to real problem solving. Because, Smart Girls, I'll let you in on a little secret the Smart Ladies have known since we were Smart Girls - those boys weren't, those men aren't thinking about anything special, maybe Baseball, or cars. There will soon be a cure for cancer (Hey, CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta claims a cure is coming soon, I believe him!), and some NOT lovelorn female will be leading the charge!
