Bordom - Overated
Well Gang ...no news on the Arbitration front, the FA front or anything regarding filling the missing holes in the Red's lineup for 2010. Sure its early but already the signs are prevalent: We go with what we got and hope against reality that somehow everything will come together and the Reds will be competitive...........
Meanwhile not a word from Slyde regarding my request to be his literary agent - Nothing from the Burgerfest gang about changing the nite to an evening when I can attend. .........
Justin talks of baseball suicide while Fat Vegas Alan reappears in the nick of time.........
Me...well I was pretty bored but after reading the recent posted commentary about the Reds having no money and the possibility of dumping BP and having Jannish as the starting SS...well that got my attention. Then again Spring Training is a ways off...who knows what may happen..............
More importantly we've UC Football 10 - 0 straining to break into the top 3 nationally. A good Xavier men's BB team, a good Xavier women's BB team, an interesting UC men's team and a less interesting UC women's team but a very interesting woman's new team coach. So a lot to keep us occupied until February. .............. Plus occasional installments of Slyde's novel are on the way. Really what more could you ask for in the middle of a severe and ongoing recession?

Here's a recent portion
Juanita walked slowly down the hallway of her apartment building rslowly reaching it’s end. The end – her apartment 712E. She pulled the key from her purse, unlocked the door and walked into the foyer. Closing the door behind she looked askance at the 2200 square foot loft with 14 foot ceilings and uneven plank flooring. she gazed dejectedly at the 22’ X 36’ Antique Persian Heriz…after tossing her Joe Rocket leather jacket on the 1890’s Chinese bamboo talbe.. she sat down glumly on the Silk brocaded Baker loveseat…“Why is life so hard…why do I have to struggle through every day?” She thought of her day…Up early to the Club for breakfast, then rushing to a Fine Atrs benefit meeting, barely finding time to make it to Starbucks for a latte..then rushing off to the Haute Courtier Club luncheon. The speeding to the spa for a rubdown and and the much needed wind class. Finally after exhausting suhopping at Talbot’s and Saks it was off to Holly Hong’s nail salon. Now, home alone, she wondered if Carlos would ever get down to business…she needed….oh how she needed.
Meanwhile Carlos and Lance pranced and romped at Uncle Rose’s Tattoo and Dance parlor….

I can’t wait for Slyde to tell me the book’s title..and of course the plot ect. ect.
I can only hope he appreciates my efforts and signs me as his ghost writer/agent

Is this Slyde novel thing a joke I missed?
by Daedalus on Nov 14, 2009 7:28 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Well I don't know if I'd call it a joke.
I saw on Facebook that Slyde was quiting his job to write a book. Naturally I offered my services as Ghostwriter/Agent. Slyde tried to ‘bluff’ me by saying that the bool was not fiction….well who in Hades would write a non-fiction book. Even a biography (especially an auto-biography) is a work of fiction…So that was an easy bluff to counter.
So I felt it was the least I could do to ‘help the project along’…although Slyde has yet sign a contract with yours truly, I’ve gone ahead and ‘leaked’ a few juicy excepts from his novel to the press. This is what an agent does. If there is no market for the book He (in this case I) creates a ‘buzz’ (Technical Book Agent Term) and starts to create a market for the book. I do not know what the book is about, the title or even what language it is to be written in. But being an accomplished novelist and writer, Ifelt it my duty go and begin the process…I am confident that Slyde will , when he’s ready, incorporate the great stuff that I’ve already written for him in the work.
Already I’ve garnered serious interest from big name publishing houses. So stay tuned and be the first to read Slyde’s novel in installments…similar to reading it if it were released in the New Yorker, True Tales And Amazing Legends Of The Old West: or Hustler.
So Sister D, this is no joke.

jch and I work in different fields of IT
So, I’m not sure he has the requisite skills to take my job. Believe me, if I thought he did, I would campaign for him to be my replacement.
And you could argue that this is a great time to quit your job if you aren’t planning on trying to find any employment for a year or two. I’ve been saving up for a while for this, and since I’m going to work independently for a while, I don’t really care that the job market sucks. Plus, it helps to have a sugar-momma.

yeah, I thought about that.
I’ve been laid off twice previously, but the company I work for now is doing pretty well in the recession and it’s unlikely that they’ll have any layoffs within the next year (they’re actually hiring people). I’ve just reached the point where I have no interest in doing this work anymore and I dreaded sitting down to work everyday. I’m fortunate that my wife has a cushy Government job, allowing me to explore some other avenues. I have no idea where I’ll end up down the road, but for the first time in a long time I’m actually excited about doing work.

I gave up actually working in 1969.
Since then I’ve never taken a job that translated into ‘dread or consummate boredom’. Its all semantics but I love to work and am willing to do the necessary boring stuff as long as the overall work is of interest to me and I am having fun with it.
Truly life is absolute so short…my only advice regarding work is: If at all possible find a way to do what you love, do it hard, with determination and have fun…I guarantee that it will pay off in the long run even if you aren’t the best or the brightest. Do what you love – love what you do…and stay out of jail.

i need to read this stuff, it is actually inspiring. I am losing perspective, I think my life sucks because I’m supposed to read 3 books a week, ad write a few research papers. How many people with a decent intellectual mind and a passion for history working a boring job would trade with me, were they get to spend two years of their write reading history books, and doing research on history, with the chance of finding something ground breaking?

that is great slyde
now you make me feel guilty for bitching about my cushy grad school life, and me future cushy life either as a college professor or high school history teacher, probably history teacher I don’t think I want to be in school for the next 6 years or so.
Honestly I am happy you are going to try and figure out something you like. If you decide a graduate degree in histroy is for you, well there might be an open room in my apartment next year, $530 a month would be your portion of the rent. Heat and water included, we are really close to Loyola. The downside is if one room opens up, the other guy besides me would either be a Cubs fan or a Steelers fan…
Honestly though good luck. You seem like a smart enough guy, I have no idea what your educational background is, but if you like you could probably do something with numbers, maybe be the next Bill James, maybe see if you can work for the Reds as their numbers guy, and I am actually being serious.

Re: Edward Kelly – Chicago Mayor -
Here’s some back ground on Kelly that you probably have missed
John-Edward Kelly, is an American conductor of classical music and classical saxophonist.
Kelly was born in San Francisco and grew up in Chicago Illinois where prior to his musical career he was the city’s Mayor.. He attended Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, and studied privately with saxophonist Sigurd Raschèr for two years.
His time in the Mayoral office was slightly marred by his relationship with Alderman Thomas Keane when after four decades as an alderman on Chicago’s City Council, Keane was convicted of mail fraud and conspiracy. Otherwise Kelly was adept at utilizing federal funds for political gains of the Democratic Party.
After retirement from political office he turned his attention to musi where After a career as a classical saxophonist, he turned more to conducting of ensembles and heavy drinking.
Kelly joined the Raschèr Saxophone Quartet in ; he was chosen by Sigurd Raschèr to succeed Raschèr as the quartet’s alto saxophonist. He moved to Germany in and was a member of the Quartet for ten years.
He founded the Alloys Ensemble1 (saxophone, cello, piano & percussion)
Kelly founded The Kelly Quartet2 . The quartet, based in Germany, consists of Kelly and several of his former students.
Kelly was artistic director of the Arcos Chamber Orchestra], which he co-founded .
Upon retirement from the musical world, Kelly turned to science and became enamoured of 20th century alchemy. He died in prison after being convicted in England after he openly professed the ability to summon spirits or angels. Kelley also claimed to possess the secret of transmuting base metals into gold. But most thought that this statement was a cover-up of the fraud that he was thought to committed while serving as the Mayor of Chicago.
So Justin this is just a glimpse of what you could be turning in to your profs…this is the kind of stuff that is documented, thought provoking and totally academic bullshit that could allow you to stay in college for years, eventually owning the college or university and being surrounded by professional academicians for years to come.

So it looks like the Reds are going Status Quo for '010
I am relieved that I have two consultancy jobs plus Slyde’s novel to keep me occupied during the race towards mediocrity.
The team needs new blood at the field level management, at the scouting level and at concession stands. that along with some marketing innovations like:
1. Wet T shirt contests every 7th inning (new meaning to the 7th inning stretch).
2. Burn a homeless person for Jesus night
3. Native American Night, charge American Indians Full Price for field level seats..then relocate them to the bleachers.
4. A Salute the Negro Leagues night – African Americans get to pay double entrance fees.
5. Who is the Father of My Child night (jch24 – your host and moderator)
6. Meet NASCAR Night (although didn’t that guy die in Egypt some years ago)
7. On Sundays couples could get Married on the Mound at GABP before the game and then buy one ticket, get one free
8. 1/2 Price Gay Pride Night – (Transgendered and Bis, must pay full price, because they’re seen as 2 people).
9. National Rifle Association Night ( Not good to hold that on the same night as Gay Pride night)
10. Atheists/Agnostics United NightThis could also be held on the same night as Creationism Night…kinda Fun.
I know these should be included Sister D’s innovation post but I just got inspired and could stop…so soory.

OOOO - Great idea!!!
Authentic Indian Blankets to the first 10,000 Native Americans…we will get those casino owners off their duffs and into the park…
WAIT !!!!
No better yet…with proper ID, all American Indians can redeem one authentic hand woven Native American blanket for a field level seat ( and the they can relocated to the bleachers in the 2nd inning).
you are a genius Justin…

generational differences
my generation didn’t grow up playing and running, we grew up with enertainment that kept us in chairs, couches etc. Plus even when i was young and at a more healthy weight i was always the slow kid in gym class. I was usually the tallest or 2nd tallest when i was in first and 2nd grade, and i had long legs and no coordination, so i just kinda moved my legs and didn’t go anywhere.
I was strong, in kickball I could kick the ball way past all the outfielders, somtimes down the hill into the woods, and just barely come into score.
I take responability for being out of shape, but honestly elementary school gym class blows. We played games, like for a week we played “mission impossible”. We had a mat, a cone, a tennis ball, and what only could have been a paddle from before they outlawed corporal punishmnet, using those items we (and all our items) had to make it from one side of the gym to the other without our bodies touching the ground.

When i was in elemntary school we only broken sticks and pieces of glass to play with.
Most of the time we spent in recess was either fighting each other or attempting to tape mirrors on the tops of our shoes.

you know the Reds could have a combo deal with the Gay Pride night and promote same sex marriages at GABP
And I could win the Heisman Trophy next year.
Seriously why not? Married before the game on the mound for a reasonable fee. Have you reception on the boat thing in CF and charge a reasonable fee. Not to mention that you can have big wedding and increase the attendance by a couple hundred or so drunken folks at the game.

Yes. I like Jodie Foster
She’s brilliant, attractive, a strong actress, a successful director and was great as Nell and as Buffy.
The fact that she is most likely lesbian is cool too because she doesn’t allow her sexuality (or sexiness) to be a factor in her professional life. She operates on her level of talent and her ability to discern her place in her profession. Plus it (her sexual orientation) meant that I was never tempted to run away to LA and try to date her. Although when she did Little Man Tate in Cincinnati, I did sell her a vintage (1965 ish) dressing table that she had rented for the film, but wanted to keep it cause she thought it was pretty cool.
