Diamond mind

You KNOW you've had too much exposure to baseball when the following happens:

While typing an email to a colleague while at work, I heard CNN say "Babe Ruth is under attack." I couldn't help but think, "what? the guy's dead! who's attacking a dead guy?" But then I thought maybe they are doing a soft news story about baseball and the Babe Ruth homerun record and they mean that his RECORD is being threatened. You know, the whole Barry Bonds homerun thing.

I looked up at the television in our office and saw that CNN was actually doing a story on Beirut!

Um, okay, now I get it.
