Dark Bilious Vapors

But how could I deny that I possess these hands and this body, and withal escape being classed with persons in a state of insanity, whose brains are so disordered and clouded by dark bilious vapors....

10/21/2004: Nice....


Game 7 of the NLCS, bottom of the third, and we just saw Jeff Suppan (batting) and Tony Womack (at third) execute a perfect suicide squeeze.

Awesome. (Even if we are down 2-1 right now)

They then cut to commercials, including a commercial for Ray, the Ray Charles biopic starring Jamie Foxx.... Have to say that Foxx's performance (if the trailers are at all accurate) is uncannily reminiscent of the real Ray Charles...

I'm considering a new career in sports betting or oddsmaking or as a bookie (or is it booky?). Or I could be one of those worthless hacks that show up on George Lapides's show selling people football picks every friday. ;o)

It's "bookie"....

And if you pick right you can be on your way to Fame, Fortune and Liberation from the chains of Honest Toil, forever.
