How can you not know what fun is?

I happen to know the definition. I'm just not sure how to go about having it anymore.

Definition smefinition, if you can't experience it, you may as well not know what it is.

Well how did you used to have it?

Smefinition? Well that's definitely not something that can be experienced or defined.

Mainly? I used to spend time with my wife. I was totally wild back then. As I'm sure you can tell.

It's a special Sam Only word. There's a lot of them. You'll catch on.

Ooooh, wild eh? Like 'goes streaking in a crowd of people' wild or 'wore socks to bed' wild?

I knew my mother should have named me Sam. . .

Definitely 'wore socks to bed' wild. I feel like I need to make up for that now. I'm not really looking to steak in a crowd full of people...but there has to be something else.

It's a blessing and a curse.

Wow, yeah you do. Hmm, go to the zoo and flip of the monkies? Destroy a room? Go out dancing? Go base jumping? The list goes on and on.

Well now you've down played it's greatness. I'm not so sure I stand by my previous statement.

Monkeys have always had this unspoken hate for me, I think that would only provoke them. The destroy the room thing I can proudly, or not so proudly, say that I have accomplished. I look like a rhino on crack when I dance. Base jumping...I might just have to try.

Maybe I was just trying to make you feel better?

You destroyed a room really? *laughs softly* You know I have never seen a rhino on crack but it is a deep dark secret that I want to. Base jumping, you might want to bring a friend, you know, so someone can let your loved ones know if something goes wrong and you ~~die~~ get hurt.

Maybe you succeeded.

It was out of anger more than boredom, not my finest moment. But I can't say that it wasn't something I had always wanted to do. Bring a friend, got it. I think my brother and sisters may want to be informed in the event that I do bite the big one, but let's hope that doesn't happen just yet. You ever been base jumping before?

Mission accomplished. Score one for Sam.

Still, you can cross it off the list of things you've done. I've yet to do that. Siblings..I never had those. I hope it doesn't happen yet either, I would feel real terrible if it did. Nope, can't say that I have done base jumping.

Four home runs in a 14-3 rout.

See now that sounds like a lot of fun. But I'm not entirely sure. I guess i'll just have to trust you.

If the Orioles win, it's a good day. *smiles* I've been a fan since I was a kid.

The Orioles, huh? My dad was a huge fan too. He always tried to get me to watch the games with him. I didn't start watching till' a few years back. But you've been a fan that long? That's devotion. I don't know if I could make such a commitment to such a fickle sport. Grins

*laughs* My dad was a fan, too. Passed it on to the kids...well, me and Kevin anyway. We both played for years, used to want to go pro. He actually works for the team now.

Your brothers name is Kevin? You're screwing with me. My brother's name is Kevin too, he's the sports guy in the family. I'd be willing to bet that our brothers would get along pretty well.

I still find it incredibly impressive that you were able to play and play well enough to have had the option to go pro. I haven't met many people that can say that. Actually...I'm pretty positive you're the only one.

*laughs* Yeah, it is. Kevin is my older brother. But he's the more talented one. He was catching in Double-A when he got injured. I still think he could've made it someday; he knows how to call a game and has a real eye for situations. It's why they hired him on as a scout.

I would've loved to go pro, but, wrong gender. Closest I ever came to pro sports was being scouted by the USAFA for the Barcelona Olympics, but, that doesn't really count because it was track.

God, that's rough. I'm sorry to hear that, sounds like he had real potential. But please, I'm sure you're just being modest. You were probably just as talented if not more.

I hate that gender bullshit. Who was the moron that decided only men should play with men and women with women? I would root for you, Stark.

Thank you. I have no idea, because softball is kind of a letdown from baseball to me. Then again I've always been that way. I had to be told powder puff football is not intended as a contact sport.

*shakes her head* I hold three school records at Maryland, but they're intramural. We didn't get an official softball team until after I graduated. The only one that really stands is my track record, and that was kind of a fluke.

THIS

Jesus, woman! How the hell did you manage that?

So much talent and a little magic.

Or, you know...a really big mouth.

I'd much prefer that it take magic only. I don't think I have the talent, or the mouth.

Well, there IS a trick involved. We'll go with magic. But really, it is fun. You should try it.

If I try this and end up choking and dying, do I have your permission to have my ghost haunt you?

Sure, ghosts are cool.

Even angry ghosts?

Eh...at least they're entertaining.

Do I need to find some old lady so you can give her a foot massage, Ian?
