Did you know that the artichoke is actually a thistle?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artichoke

I didn't know that.

If you ever tasted one you would be surprised.


I hate atrichokes.

And golf.


Just cuz you can't hit a golf ball further with a baseball bat than I can
with a golf club. 8)




Oh yeah. Forgot about that.

As much as I like Tom, *this* bet he is gonna lose.

Ahem...

I am rethinking - um...attempting to develop a way to effectively say
that I was...er...."incorrect"...no, that's not the word - mistaken -
yeah, mistaken in my belief that I could hit a golf ball further with
a baseball bat than with a golf club.

I'm sure that, Obama like, I can rephrase my original assertion in
such a way that what I was really saying was that I couildn't hit a
golf ball further with a baseball bat than a golf club while not
admitting that I was mistaken about being able to do so leaving the
impression that indeed I could hit a golf ball further with a baseball
bat than a golf club only I can't.

I'll figure it out eventually. :)

If you want to learn to rephrase, just watch your boy McCain spewing out
absolute b.s. because, sadly, he has nothing to say of interest to anyone.

*That's* and interesting wager! How will the ball be delivered to the
bat? Tee-ball? The club will win. A pitch? Now you have a challenge!

That's not far off the mark. But, worse, for McCain is that he keeps
claiming he hasn't said what he has said, and he's running a dirty
campaign, which he said he would not do. Typical Bush-Rove crap, all
over again.

Can we chalk that up as a "flip-flop"? I'm confused by your phrasing.
