I went to get my teeth cleaned by Mrs. Mengele today. I'm not sure of her accent, but it's freaky. I get to hear her say things like, "You floss, no?" "Open, open." "Healthy gums don't bleed. You have slight bleeding. You use Listerine, no?" Of course, one of the fillings I had last time didn't take. The bastards.

Worst graphic ever on the Tribe game tonight. "Who's Hot? Who's Not?" Sort of a "who was crappy in April, but better in May" list. They actually had Casey Blake and Aaron Boone on this graphic. For May, Blake was at .235 and Boone at .194, yet they both made the Hot list. The most ridiculous concept I've seen. Beyond spin doctoring, this is lying. BTW, another shitty crowd at Jacobs Field, but they won, 2-1.
