I met a Dutch girl with inflatable shoes last week, phoned her up to
arrange a date but unfortunately she'd popped her clogs.
Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly; but when they lit a fire in
the craft, it sank, proving once and for all that you can't have your
kayak and heat it.
So I said "Do you want a game of Darts?" he said "OK then", I said
"Nearest to bull starts". He said "Baa", I said "Moo", he said "You're
closest".
You see I'm against hunting, in fact I'm a hunt saboteur. I go out the
night before and shoot the fox.
The other day I sent my girlfriend a huge pile of snow. I rang her up; I
said "Did you get my drift?”
So I went down the local supermarket, I said "I want to make a
complaint, this vinegar's got lumps in it"; he said "Those are pickled onions".
I saw this bloke chatting up a cheetah; I thought "he's trying to pull a
fast one".
So I said to this train driver "I want to go to Paris". He said
"Eurostar?”I said "I've been on telly but I'm no Dean Martin".
So I said to the Gym instructor "Can you teach me to do the splits?”. He
said "How flexible are you?" I said "I can't make Tuesdays".
But I'll tell you what I love doing more than anything: trying to pack
myself in a small suitcase. I can hardly contain myself.
So I met this gangster who pulls up the back of people's pants, it was
Wedgie Kray.
So I went to the Chinese restaurant and this duck came up to me with a
red rose and says "Your eyes sparkle like diamonds". I said "Waiter, I asked
for a-ROMATIC duck".
But I'm in great mood tonight because the other day I entered a
competition and I won a years supply of Marmite......... one jar.
So this bloke says to me, "Can I come in your house and talk about your
carpets?" I thought "That's all I need, a Je-oover's witness".
You see my next door neighbour worships exhaust pipes, he's a catholic
converter.
So I rang up British Telecom, I said "I want to report a nuisance
caller" he said "Not you again".
So I was having dinner with Garry Kasporov (world chess champion) and
there was a check tablecloth. It took him two hours to pass me the salt.
He said "You remind me of a pepper-pot", I said "I'll take that as a
condiment".
Now did you know all male tennis players are witches, for example
Goran, even he's a witch.
And I've got a friend who's fallen in love with two school bags, he's
bisatchel.
So I was in Tesco's and I saw this man and woman wrapped in a barcode.
said "Are you two an item?”
So a lorry-load of tortoises crashed into a train-load of terrapins, I
thought "That's a turtle disaster".
Four fonts walk into a bar the barman says "Oi - get out! We don't want
your type in here"
A jump-lead walks into a bar. The barman says "I'll serve you, but
don't start anything"
A priest, a rabbi and a vicar walk into a bar. The barman says, "Is
this some kind of joke?"
A sandwich walks into a bar. The barman says "Sorry we don't serve food

Dyslexic man walks into a bra
A seal walks into a club...
A man walks into a bar with a roll of tarmac under his arm and says:
"Pint please, and one for the road."
A three-legged dog walks into a saloon in the Old West. He slides up to
the bar and announces: "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw."
A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in
the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an
hour the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why
they asked?” they moved off. "Because," he said "I can't stand chess nuts
boasting in an open foyer."
There was a man who entered a local paper's pun contest. He sent in ten
different puns, in the hope that at least one of the puns would win.
Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
A woman has twins, and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to
a family in Egypt and is named "Amal." The other goes to a family in
Spain they name him Juan". Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to
his mum. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wished
she also had a picture of Amal. Her husband responds, "But they are twins.
If you've seen Juan, you've seen Amal."

What are some places like Sports Authority and Foot Locker that have ladies track shoes???
Track %26amp; Field starts on Monday and I need new shoes. I got my pair last year from Sports Authority and they are really worn. When I looked at the selection at Sports Authority I didn't like any of them.
What are some places like Sports Authority and Foot Locker that have ladies track shoes???
Some good shoe stores that have track shoes and running shoes are Famous Footwear, Nike Store, and the Puma Store. Another good place is Dick's Sporting Goods.

Why do my running shoes squeak?
My running shoes have started to sqeak. I got them last spring but just started wearing them a few months ago... so they don't have that many miles on them. I used to wear New Balance and Asics but switched to Nike Air because the lady at the store said it would help prevent me from running on the inside of my feet. Now my shoes squeak... Do I need a new pair or is there a solution?
Why do my running shoes squeak?
It may be the insoles that are squeaking.
Some talc powder may help.
Unless it is driving you crazy it doesn't matter or affect the performance of the shoes.
Reply:First, please take the removable insole out, put an extra pair of socks on and run a few yards. Does that help? Does the squeaking sound go away? If so, buy replacement insoles or experiment with applying vaseline (light coating) or talcum powder on the underside and edges of the insoles.
If this does not correct the problem then you must assume that an air unit has ruptured. In that case, you won't be able to fix it and the sound will not go away with time.
It is difficult for me to determine if your shoe's integrity or usefulness has been compromised. If it is a air unit problem it is probably best for you to replace it (sorry).
It is a good idea to become friendly with the staff of the running specialty store in your area (if you have one). These stores are not likely to carry shoes with known issues and have very liberal return/exchange policies.
Also, a shoe begins to age when it is made not when you start using it. It is best to buy recently manufactured shoes (not a pair of clearance shoes) and begin using them right away. The materials used in running shoes age fairly rapidly.

Ebay 10p listing Day?
My daughter was going to sell some clothes and shoes last Thursday on the ebay 10p listing day.When she read what was included it said "Car Parts and Accessories" and she took it to mean that you could only list items in this category so she decided not to sell this time.I said that it meant that she could sell in all categories as well as Car Parts. Who was correct her or me ? Did anyone list anything on ebay last Thursday that was not in Car Parts? We want to know for future 10p days.Thanks.
Ebay 10p listing Day?
Its for all category although I'm sure in terms and conditions it says you cannot list cars or automobiles. I listed all kinds last Thursday on the 10p listing day. Also don't be worried at the end of each listing it might not show as 10p (or a bit extra with additional pic in gallery) the discount is usually shown at the end in your account file. Hope this helps and good luck!

Suede protector sprays?
I just got some new shoes, and they're suede, I also got a protector spray, how often should I spray this? as in how long does the protector last, and how much do i spray?
thanks!
Suede protector sprays?
Before you spray make sure it is not a silicone base or it will change the color of the shoes. The first time you spray you should spray a light coat, let them sit and then spray a heavier coat. Make sure to get all seams especially between the upper and the sole as well as the tongue. How often you spray is dependent on how often you wear them. If they are your main pair, I would spray once a week especially during the winter. You can not hurt them by spraying too much (if not silicone base) and it will make them easier to clean. Hope this helps.
Reply:just spray a thin layer, try doing every other day for max protection
Reply:only a short sprey

Todd, I'm Looking for you on this?
I liked your suggestions on the last one. What do you suggest with this? (I may as well have you write them for me!)
The Good Life
A bum some call him, beard ragged and
mismatched shoes. Wearing the same clothes
for three months now, but he's not keeping
track.
He makes his home behind a bush under
the overpass of the freeway by the creek.
Nearby a cart with squeeky wheels holds
his life's only possessions - a soiled
sleeping bag and makeshift pillow which he
neatly folds and places in the cart each day.
He begins his search for treasures in every
bin he passes, carrying conversations
with nobody in particular, oblivious of
stares from passing cars on the busy city
streets. He finds a few empty beer cans and
remnants of one's lunch, its been a good day.
He shivers from the cold as the rain begins
to fall and he heads toward the comfort of
home, ending another day of asking for
nothing and receiving less.
Todd, I'm Looking for you on this?
Hi, well I know you’re being facetious but I wouldn’t want to write them for you. I just try to do light editing and suggestions to push into a direction with the words you’ve already started with. There is always a danger with a narrative that it will either be too distant, or be more of a short story. My suggestion to you is to think about your title: The Good Life (which is ironic and effective), and put your main character's mindset more into the piece. He comes off a bit delusional, so maybe move into his thoughts, and make him see it as the good life. Here's a brief example of a possible approach. The line breaks I use may not be the best right now--I'm just trying to give you a mood and a tone to work with on rewrite:
Amazing what people throw away
a man with his wits could live like a king.
What’s a bit of orange juice and cat litter
for a new jacket? Throw away
new shoes--when only the right one is bad—
wasteful. A nine is a little small, but you need
to work with ‘em you can’t give up.
Giving up is easy. Nothing worth
anything should be easy.
Something like that perhaps. Where you move to the immediate first person view.
Here is an early version of one of my poems I posted on YA where I did something similar (it is currently revised more, but I think it would still provide another example for you)

The first time I was homeless I lived out of garbage bins and did it real hard. The second time I knew more about the welfare system and it was a lot smoother transition.
The first time I was insane. Left my job with the State Railways of New South Wales (SRA of NSW). Went to Queensland. Worshiped the darkside for about a week. It lied to me and told me that I was the anti-Christ. Committed an armed robbery, attempted armmed robbery, deprevation of libberty, vagrancy and served 6 months on remand and was paroled after seving 1 year of a sentence have not been in trouble with the police since. (During that time I lived out of garbage bins.)
When I got paroled I returned to NSW I stayed with my sister, who was a prostitute at the time, and her two children.
She was going through a divorce from her first husband. She has had 3 marrages and at least one long term relationship and was a victim of petaphilia by her father.
I got work with a lift company as a lift mechanic (electrician) for a year then came to the conclusion that it would be better that my neice and nephew should not go in to the care of their father and it would be better if my sistter was no longer a prostitute. That I to should go to my final rest after taking my beloved relatives, that I was living with at the time, with me to that permanent sleep. Sought after help to not go to that extreme and ended up in Macquarie Hospital for 3 month.
Have been on the Disability Support Pension since 1990 and worked with the mentaly ill for about 20 years.
Have been a telephone counsellor (left that because I was assulted by another counsellor when I was wearing sunglasses to shade myself from the harshness of others and the crulty they can show you.) Bassicaly finished a welfare course but did not hand in the report on my final placement because I seperated and then divorced my wife who was trying to kill me because of her mental illness and she was having a relatioship with another man.
Have been a co-ordinator of a drop in and activity facility for the mentally ill; The second consumer representative to join The Ryde Mental Health Consumer network and am still active in that network to a certain degree. (The Ryde Mental Health Consumer Network was the first of it's type in Australia and all similar such network has learnt and grown from it.); A Human Imune diffiecence Virius/Acquired Imune Deffiecence Syndrom, Mental Health peer educator (HIV/AIDS/Mental Health peer educator) for more then ten years and various other paid and unpaid work in the welfare industry.
Now I sell The Big Issue at North Sydney Railway Station and various other activities to earn an income. Have been published again, for the lyrics that I wrote, for a Hymn, that is published in The Big Issue, that hit the streets on Monday the tenth of September, 2007.
The second time I was homeless I refused to be a witness to domestic violence in a shared accomodation that I was in.
There is much more to this story to this but I'll leave it at that for now. Kind regards Daniel T.

The first time I was homeless I lived out of garbage bins and did it real hard. The second time I knew more about the welfare system and it was a lot smoother transition.
The first time I was insane. Left my job with the State Railways of New South Wales (SRA of NSW). Went to Queensland. Worshiped the darkside for about a week. It lied to me and told me that I was the anti-Christ. Committed an armed robbery, attempted armmed robbery, deprevation of libberty, vagrancy and served 6 months on remand and was paroled after seving 1 year of a sentence have not been in trouble with the police since. (During that time I lived out of garbage bins.)
When I got paroled I returned to NSW I stayed with my sister, who was a prostitute at the time, and her two children.
She was going through a divorce from her first husband. She has had 3 marrages and at least one long term relationship and was a victim of petaphilia by her father.
I got work with a lift company as a lift mechanic (electrician) for a year then came to the conclusion that it would be better that my neice and nephew should not go in to the care of their father and it would be better if my sistter was no longer a prostitute. That I to should go to my final rest after taking my beloved relatives, that I was living with at the time, with me to that permanent sleep. Sought after help to not go to that extreme and ended up in Macquarie Hospital for 3 month.
Have been on the Disability Support Pension since 1990 and worked with the mentaly ill for about 20 years.
Have been a telephone counsellor (left that because I was assulted by another counsellor when I was wearing sunglasses to shade myself from the harshness of others and the crulty they can show you.) Bassicaly finished a welfare course but did not hand in the report on my final placement because I seperated and then divorced my wife who was trying to kill me because of her mental illness and she was having a relatioship with another man.
Have been a co-ordinator of a drop in and activity facility for the mentally ill; The second consumer representative to join The Ryde Mental Health Consumer network and am still active in that network to a certain degree. (The Ryde Mental Health Consumer Network was the first of it's type in Australia and all similar such network has learnt and grown from it.); A Human Imune diffiecence Virius/Acquired Imune Deffiecence Syndrom, Mental Health peer educator (HIV/AIDS/Mental Health peer educator) for more then ten years and various other paid and unpaid work in the welfare industry.
Now I sell The Big Issue at North Sydney Railway Station and various other activities to earn an income. Have been published again, for the lyrics that I wrote, for a Hymn, that is published in The Big Issue, that hit the streets on Monday the tenth of September, 2007.
The second time I was homeless I refused to be a witness to domestic violence in a shared accomodation that I was in.
There is much more to this story to this but I'll leave it at that for now. Kind regards Daniel T.

What made you want to start loosing your weight??
I recently started my healthy/fitness journey, and I have dropped 20 pounds and I am so happy, I questioned myself last night what were the real reasons why I decided to make this change. For It was.. becoming healthier, confidence, and for years I realized I never did have lingerie, I realized how bad I wanted to go and shop at those stores too, not only clothes and shoes and bags etc. This was MY motivation, and I would like to know others motivation. Please do share. =) Thanks
What made you want to start loosing your weight??
Health. Two years ago I was in the ER with symptoms like I was having a heart attack. Turns out it was anxiety, but it scared me enough to start eating a healthier diet and exercising regularly. Unfortunately, I work a very stressful job, and when my boss went on maternity leave at our busiest time and left me in charge of the office, I gained it all back and then some. It has taken me another year to get back on track. I've only lost 4 pounds in the past 3 months, but within the past 2 weeks, I've started to have the heart attack symptoms again. I have cut way back on my portions, and am doing my workout tape again. My goal is to lose another 25 pounds by August, when we go to Las Vegas, mainly because I know I'm going to be miserable in the heat out there, and being overweight will only make it worse.

Reply:First of all CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I am so happy to hear you lost so much, I would like to drop 30 pounds or 35 for a healthier weight.
Not too long ago I found out I have had a long battle with mild depression and 2 episodes of double depression.
I was in total denial of all that and didn't even think about that idea.
Until one day I was thinking that the only thing I would like to do and was never able to, was to be at a healthier weight.
I do try my best to look and dress nice, i am into make up and dressing up. I alwasy wanted to be in my healthy weight. But for some odd reason this was a goal I could never reach .
So putting two and two together and long story short I realized that I was self-medicating myself with sugar, carbs and if things were really bad... any food would make it. I had real binges when things were really stressful or when I was at my worse.
It was so soothing for me to eat, but not only as an emotional eater as I thought i was.
Then i took a trip down to memory lane and I went to when i was 4 years old, 8 y/o, my tenage years, my 20's and realized how I was always kind of sad and empty!!! I always was more on the melancholic side of things for almost anything.
I saw old pictures and always saw my sad little face. It was hearbreaking to see it and specially for me that I stigmatized depressed people a lot.
I also realized how many coping mechanisms i learned to avoid being stigmatized as a DEPRESSED person ... I made many, many friends, tried to be social all the time, smiles all the time, friendly, goofy, nice all the time. And of course in the meantime kept piling up with food to be able to cope and find some happiness ....
But there is only so much i could take and i started to have some crisis, emotionally i was a wreck , so i had this moment of AWARENESS and realized I can't do this to myself anymore.
so i guess i am not trying meds right now, but i am having a wholistic approach to "treat" myself now that i know better.
I want to break the cycle by eating healthier, sleeping right, talking to a counselor, keeping close friendships, sunlight, positive thinking and excercising.
So that is how i started to finally being able to loose weight and exercise more. As part of my own "treatment therapy".
Reply:I wanted a smaller waist... an hourglass figure you know? I actually have a SUPER hott figure when I weigh about 105-110, right now @ 120 but I'm working healthily back down to it :D
I love the way your clothes hang when you are curvy slender too....
Reply:I have 3 kids and the oldest is 3 1/2 years old so as you can tell, I didn't exactly have much time between pregnancies to get the excess weight off that I had put on. So far I have lost 13.6lbs (6.2kg) and I have another 37.5lbs (17kg) to lose to get exactly where I want to be. My motivation is to be able to buy clothes and look good in them. You know how you see an outfit in a catalogue or in the shop window and it looks really good (because it's modelled on a thin person) and when you try it on you can see lumps and bumps where there shouldn’t be any?? I hate that, so I want to be able to see outfits in the catalogue and know it will look good on me because I’m not overweight. My other two big motivators are 1. I want to be a fit and healthy role model for my daughter and 2. I want to be able to buy one of those sexy outfits that you wear for your husbands eyes only and actually look and feel really sexy in it. Congratulations on you weight loss!
Reply:woz thin all my life then got fat for four or five years, always wanted to lose weight but had not will power. meeting felicity helped a bit and also going to the gym. had this frustration thing for felicity and now i can calm down.also not having mum live with me helped as she kept buying naughty food.
Reply:Because I wanted my body to be the best it could possibly be =)
And because I wanted to llok good in normal clothes...they just fit me kinda funny.
I am currently 104 lbs. working to 95-100
Reply:well looking good was my first step
later it just became being healthier and being able to do things I wasn't before. Like running for a long period of time without getting tired. and so on
more knowing you look good and that your healthy makes a big difference for some reason. It makes you feel better about yourself when everyone else is just not caring. Eventually you start to feel more confident. My father is a weight lifter and he feels like a god just cause hes in great shape and hes got sooooo much muscle it aint even funny.

What is this hard callus-like spot on the side of my foot??
Last fall I noticed a spot on the outside of my foot. It is hard to the touch like a callus and when I try to go snowboarding the pressure makes it feel like someone is stabbing me with a thousand needles and it will stay tender for a while after I snowboard. If I wear big shoes/slippers around the house I barely notice it. I can notice that it makes my foot look like there is a lump on the side. This is about 1.5 inches back from the tip of my pinky toe on the widest part of the foot.
Please help, I have no idea what this is or how to get rid of it.
What is this hard callus-like spot on the side of my foot??
it could be a callus or a corn. if its yellow in color it could be a corn, if not then probably a callus. I have them as well. Try wearing well fitting shoes. if they keep bothering you. talk to your doctor.
Reply:Sounds to me like you have a Corn. Unpleasant little beggars they are too! You can buy some salicylic preparation from the pharmacy - ask for corn removal pads. Or buy corn cushions, this is a ring of felt that protects the area and stops it rubbing and causing the pain. They are treatable, can be caused by wearing shoes too tight. They can also be cut off, but see a chiropodist for this.........though lots of women have been known to dry them out with the corn removing liquid then scrape them off.........yuk! Hope yours are soon history!
Reply:Get referred to a foot doctor and have it checked out.
Reply:I suggest that you go to get a pedicure. They will help remove the callus. Also, at home, you can put a layer of vasaline on your callus BEFORE you put shoes and socks on. It will help make it softer.

Why do I have a bruise that has lasted more than a week?
I was playing flag football and got the top right side of my foot got stepped by a cleat. I was wearing normal shoes so there was no protection. It hurt really bad when it happened but there is a big bump on my foot that wont go away and a big area of bruising. Should I get X-rays?
Why do I have a bruise that has lasted more than a week?
You see, our blood contains heparin... a anti coagulant substance that is used for repair and to dissolve blod clots in our body. As you have mentioned the site of injury is on your feet and our feet is the most distal part of the body that receives blood so that is why it took more than a week for your bruise to disappear, cause it received heparin slower than other parts of your body.
you can have ur self xrayed and check whether you have dislocations on your foot.. and have the proper medical care..
hope i have answered you question..

Does anyone else have a sweating problem?
My hands and feet sweat just about constantly. I've heard about 2 different procedures where:
1) They inject botox into the glands to stop the flow of sweat... the injections last for about 6 months.
and
2) They can cut the glands in the wrinkles of your wrists to prevent sweat from coming to the surface.
I've tried Drysol, which is the liquid that you dab on, but nothing works. Not even Gold Bond powder or cornstarch.
Has anyone known of someone to have one of those procedures done? And do they really work? I would love to go through my wedding without sweaty hands and would love to wear any shoes I want without having to worry about slipping and twisting my ankle.
Does anyone else have a sweating problem?
your sweating may not be treatable.it could be more simple.if u take really hot long showers it may be beneficial to gradually end your shower with acolder temperature in order to reduce your body temperature which can close your pores. hot water opens them.your body needs time to cool down.
Reply:If you haven't recently, you might want to have a basic bloodwork done. At least have your sugar tested to rule out diabetes.
Reply:Have your tried "Certain Dri", an over-the-counter roll-on? It works great for underarm perspiration and might help with your problem also.
Reply:Have you tried over the counter vitamins. Like menapause pills? Ask a physican about using the menapause pills. my mom takes them. She's 50 and sweats alot too.
Reply:I don't have this problem, but I just read an article about it in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. It's called hyperhidrosis. The subject in the article recently had surgery and is thrilled to be able to go shoe shopping. The link is below....

The only weird thing is that his chest and back sweat a ton and everything else is completely dry. Its not a problem or anything just a little bit weird. He said that it worked well for him and solved the problem.

Does Any1 Know How the Short Poem goes called a "Deaf Child's Prayer"?
I read it somewhere, but don't remember where. But the last two lines went something like this:

"a ball, a fish, a top, a shoe."
Does Any1 Know How the Short Poem goes called a "Deaf Child's Prayer"?
I found a poem on several sites called A Deaf Child's Prayer, but it didn't have your text in it.
A Deaf Child's Prayer
Do the angels sing in Heaven, Lord?
Will I hear music there?
Or must I stand in a corner
While others join in prayer?
While I wonder what they're saying Lord,
As oft I do down here?
Must I sit in lonely stillness
While the bells ring loud and clear?
Can I read your lips in Heaven,
Lord Will I be brushed aside,
And stick my hands in pockets
Because of wounded pride?
Will all the saints there praise thee,
While I in silence wait?
Will some one up in Heaven
Help me through the gate?
Then God, who loves the humble,
Whispered in the poor deaf ear
My child, has no one told you,
There is no silence here.
Hold out your hands, my little one,
For Heaven all to see.
We've heard them pray so many times,
Each prayer reached up to Me.
See, all the angels waiting.
The gates are open wide.
Your crown of life awaits you,
And I shall be your guide.
I have a song to give you,
You'll sing both loud and clear.
And the song you sing, my dear one,
Will be the sweetest song up here.

Or must I stand in a corner
While others join in prayer?
While I wonder what they're saying Lord,
As oft I do down here?
Must I sit in lonely stillness
While the bells ring loud and clear?
Can I read your lips in Heaven,
Lord Will I be brushed aside,
And stick my hands in pockets
Because of wounded pride?
Will all the saints there praise thee,
While I in silence wait?
Will some one up in Heaven
Help me through the gate?
Then God, who loves the humble,
Whispered in the poor deaf ear
My child, has no one told you,
There is no silence here.
Hold out your hands, my little one,
For Heaven all to see.
We've heard them pray so many times,
Each prayer reached up to Me.
See, all the angels waiting.
The gates are open wide.
Your crown of life awaits you,
And I shall be your guide.
I have a song to give you,
You'll sing both loud and clear.
And the song you sing, my dear one,
Will be the sweetest song up here.
From Donna Lankford

Bernie no longer a Yankee?!?
who else thinks cashman is making a huge mistake? sure hes older now but why not let him retire a Yankee?? he did fill some big shoes last year off the bench and hes what I would consider a major role in all their world series wins since 96..
opinions??
Bernie no longer a Yankee?!?
I agree. Bernie Williams has given his best to the organization. He should retire as a Yankee. I agree that he played huge roles in the Yankees four World Series Championships from 1996-2000. It is a mistake. They should let Bernie retire as a Yankee.
Reply:Baseball is WAY too much a business now. Every roster spot needs to be filled with a person who fills a certain role, and a BU outfielder at Bernie's age, with a good but declining bat, and losing the athleticism to effectively patrol the outfield is not a smart business decision. That's the bottom line. If you put him in the minor leagues and he does well, then in September when the Roster expands, you can bring him up then. That's what they were hoping for, I am sure. But Bernie does deserve respect. He is an asset.
Reply:Barry may not be a great player still, but he brings a certain attitude to the team which makes him almost necesary for the Yankees to keep
Reply:I agree.Bernie should still be a Yankee I think he's got another year left in him.
Reply:hes got a 50-50 chance
Reply:bernie said no to a minor league contract. didn't mean he wouldn't make the team. who cares? yankees suck anyway, GO MARLINS
Reply:Bernie has to earn his spot on the team just like anyone else. Why sign someone just for nostalgic reasons when you may have someone better that gets cut? If he wants to retire as a Yankee then he just needs to retire now.
Reply:i like yankee team
Reply:I agree with you....Bernie has been a major part of the Yankees world series run....He needs to retire as a yankee. He was better than a lot of people expected last year filling in for Matsui and Sheffield. I think they need to show him a little more respect and make him the back up outfielder v. Melky. Don't get me wrong...I like melky but they should let Bernie take the field before Melky esp in post season where bernie has just a little more experience.
