The Red Sox. Honest Abe. My favorite player of all time is Ted Williams. To my misery, I left my cherished Red Sox hat on a roller coaster last year. Still, you know who I was rooting for in the Phils/Sox series last week, for sure. World Series this year? (Doom to the Yanks, either way.)Chris Matarazzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17885109959459471509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693471143220681808.post-90574681036190233692011-07-02T22:04:13.863-04:002011-07-02T22:04:13.863-04:00Mr. Keen -- As yo might be able to tell, I 'm ...Mr. Keen -- As yo might be able to tell, I 'm a little torn, too. In fact. I was just reading today about Penn and the Quakers who refused to take off their hats in deference to others. they even wouldn't call anyone "Mr." becaus eit impleid superiority. Ther is something cool about the "screw you" mentality and doing what one wants. Still, it always seems to come down to balance. So, I'm with you on the vascillating response.Chris Matarazzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17885109959459471509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693471143220681808.post-53904151795152758372011-07-01T11:29:30.469-04:002011-07-01T11:29:30.469-04:00I see one major flaw in your logic: You are Philad...I see one major flaw in your logic: You are Philadelphia Phillies fan????

That's the only word that I have for thi...Torn. That's the only word that I have for this. I complete agree with you. There is something to be said for good ol' fashion respectful appearance and demeanor. I also couldn't disagree more. I really do believe that what we show outwardly shouldn't (SHOULDN'T) have anything to do with our beliefs, ethics or behavior. I really do find nothing wrong with that woman going to church in a bikini. It's extreme, but that's a choice...although the priest may see it as disrepectful. Isn't it enough that she's making the sincere effort? Not sure.<br /><br />The one point I will wave the banner about it Sir Vance-a-lot's hat. A baseball brim should never be that flat. It's just not right. Call me an old fogey, but it seems that a perfectly straight brim is some sort of sin against nature.<br /><br />I'm all for freedom of choice; that above almost everything else, but sometimes right is right. How's all that for the best non-response I could muster?Keenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05339578119792479515noreply@blogger.com
