It's been awhile

I've been busy and this little place I've carved out here never really gets much of my undivided attention. It's still not going to while I am busy hanging with the new nephews, checking out the new(er) lake house and trying to get my own things in order so Nicole and I can find a home of our own together. With all of that being said, I figured I had five minutes today to write this up and insert a quote from a Yahoo Baseball interview with Hunter Pence.


Q: Do you play World of Warcraft?
HP: Yeah. That's my hobby.

Q: I don't know too much about it — other than from the "South Park" episode — do you?
HP: The "South Park" episode is really funny, actually, and that's the only thing most people know about it: "Oh, you're a nerd in a basement." But really, it's for the competitive edge in me. I always have to be competing. There are different things you can do in the game, but all of what I usually do is play with my brother [Howie]; it's a way for us to keep in communication. It's like, two versus two where we go and battle two other people. You put your team together and battle it out.

Q: You've created your own avatar?
HP: Yeah, yeah, you have to have own character. There's, like, three different ones from which I choose, but my main one is a mage.

Q: OK. What does a mage do?
HP: They blow things up [laughs].




I hope you are reading Nicole.... Not only does Hunter play WoW, but he loves South Park too!
