1.5 Recipe for Salad Dressing
this one is good if you have a salad for four scale appropriately 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons vinegar (I don't care what anyone says, vinegar is vinegar, don't bother buying expensive vinegar the stuff in the gallon bottle is just fine) 5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (as long as it's extra virgin, again, doesn't matter if it's the cheapest brand, trust me) put in a jar with a lid, or, better yet, a martini shaker ($5 at Target -- don't even think of looking at Wal-Mart) shake pour over the salad toss eat
2. Bad and Baseball
bad sounds like bat the way some people say it you use a bat to play baseball I'm looking forward to baseball season this summer hopefully, I'll get to see three or four Redhawks games this summer I like to get seats behind home plate in the farthest row there I can see the infield quite well, but I'm in the shade It's more fun, at least for me, if you keep score while watching Each batter gets a mark For example, 1B for a single, K for a strikeout, 6-3 with a one in a circle means the guy hit it to the shortstop who threw it to first for the first our of the inning a completed scorecard makes a nice souvenier

Each batter gets a mark
For example, 1B for a single, K for a strikeout,
6-3 with a one in a circle means the guy hit it to the shortstop who threw it to first for the first our of the inning
a completed scorecard makes a nice souvenier

That being bad
Is too easy--
And that is why
I also believe
It's so difficult to be.
