love love love love this one
(and, before someone says that they didn't like it because they couldn't relate to the baseball part: I don't know shit about baseball, nor do I want to know. I just took those parts for granted, as I would if spaceship piloting were described in their place. It didn't subtract anything from the masterpiece TGWLTG is)

Not a real masterpiece in my eyes, but it deserves more praise than it usually gets.
Frik, ditto this one too!! Although I gave it a 2 only for introducing me to the delicious wonder that are fiddleheads! (My mom lives in Maine. You can buy them there fresh in season and canned and jarred otherwise.)Originally Posted by frik
