OK, it’s just a topical corticosteroid cream for an allergic rash, but I dig catchy titles. Take that, Will Carroll!

I’m also taking a strong antihistamine for the rash, so if I act oddl

…mmm…huh? where was i? oh february. i hate it. might as well sleep through it anyway. billy beane said at the fanfest that after signing mark ellis he’s going to take a month off. zito trade: not happening. so what better time to be zonkkndkeided. i’ll be coked to the gills when I bump that old buzzard off.

did you know the super bowl and i are twins? I was born first. I turn XL tomorrow, Supe turns on Sunday. we’re having a combined party. I’d invite you over, but I’ll probably just be a

ombie, and you could probably have more fun elsewhere. Maybe I’m a barrel of laffs when I be souped up on antihistamines and corticosteroids, but I doubabtttttttt it.

hehhhh i said tttttt it.

speaking of drugs you gotta wonder if the amphetamine ban is an ever bigger advantage for the a’s this year. billy beane has constructed a very deep team, with quality replacements at practically every position. without their uppers, players may need more time off this year, and the a’s will be in better position to exploit that than probably every other team. as joe sheehan said

When you consider the depth of the bench and bullpen, the A’s may have the strongest 16-25 roster in the game. That matters over 162 games.

and especially ove r 162 greeniefree games?

of course if the green team relied on a lot of greenies in the past, they may suffer more than most, too. won’t know til august september what am i saying we probably wont even know then. pay no attention to me im’m on the oppositittie of greenies.

hehhhh i said oppositittie

i listened to vince cotroneo on mlbradio yesterday, decent voice, a bit of a chatterbox, can probably give ray fosse a run for his runonsentence money if you know what i mean but i think he’ll be at least inoffensive which is all i am relaly hoping 4

1.  Happy Birthday! I hope you crawl out of your drug-induced haze long enough to enjoy it. Conincidentally, my birthday is tomorrow, too.

OK, it was last December.

4.  This entry is almost Faulknerian. Makes me wonder how wasted Bill was when he wrote The Sound and the Fury

5.  I don't think I'm going to remember my 40th birthday much, even like it was today.
