Hearing There's a Lull in My Life -- Tony Bennett

"Here's a Ball. You Might Try Bouncing It."


Think bouncing a little red ball is easy? Well, it's supposed to be. And yet, I'm finding this game entirely maddening. Not only do you have to bounce the ball, you have to bounce it so that it hits the plates in numerical order. You'll find yourself wasting valuable work time trying to bounce a ball. Trust me. Or if you don't you're a better person than I.

Not enough fun with little red balls? Try this one. You're the blue ball. Don't get hit by the red ones. It gets tough, quick.

    Krissy: "Stop playing with your balls and get the van fixed!"

    OK, she didn't actually say that... but wives stick together, and one nagging style works for many men.
