Enis is a great salesman, isn’t he? I mean, he’s got the patter down, and the charisma, and…
There should be a sarcasm key on computer keyboards, shouldn’t there?

This popping-of-the-bubblewrap had to have been going on before we see it here. I mean, how could you NOT?
I figure Crazyball is like Improv Comedy. Somebody yells out a twist, and you say, “Yes.”
Why not? Creativity within specific and rigid rules is okay, but after a certain point, it’s not creativity anymore, it’s just ramped-up skill sets and a career’s worth of practice. Maybe some steroids. But Creativity while running willy-nilly around a crowd of people ostensibly doing the same thing? Maybe the creativity begets some other creativity and so on.
Crazyball, then, is the road to the Next Big Thing. You just have to wade through the Crazy to discover it.
Have you ever been in Duncan’s situation? You’re kinda tired. You might take a nap to rebuild your energy. Or you might jump up and spend more energy.
Sounds crazy, but it works that way sometimes.
Quick, who remembers what Mal is referring to?
Someone should have reminded him there was a Non-Disclosure Agreement with his name on it somewhere in the bowels of Sportsmart.
You guys remember, right? It wasn’t THAT long ago, was it?
Hmmmmm. Maybe it WAS.
Shelly’s one of those girlfriends who doesn’t mind getting fired up over her guy.
I think.
Maybe she’s one of those girlfriends who’s been putting up with crap for long enough and has decided to take out her frustrations on anyone within reach.

The title today refers, of course, to the classic comedy routing “Who’s on first?” as was made famous by Abbot and Costello.
But it wasn’t written by them. Nor even performed originally by them.
Turns out it was a sort of vaudeville standard, and Abbot and Costello were just really, really good at doing that routine about the time that vaudeville was being supplanted by radio, and eventually, by television. Vaudevillains, it turns out, would take material from other vaudevillians at the drop of a hat (which was probably another routine that was widely popularized from the stage, hat dropping being the wildly humorous thing it is, or was) and Abbot and Costello were really good at getting on radio and TV.
There’s probably an analog in current digital parlance. Feel free to consider and comment about such.
I did my usual old workouts the last couple of days… and started feeling pretty good today. Really back to normal. Strong. Healthy.
In other words, exactly the way I felt the day I got all the blood clots two months ago.
And there’s a real sign of old age: worried that something’s wrong because it feels like nothing’s wrong.
