FAQs

At least I think they should be.

Cycle alerts

Yellow alert - Player needs triple for cycle
Orange alert - Player needs double for cycle
Red alert - Player need single for cycle

If a player needs a home run for the cycle, the level of the alert varies depending upon the determination of the Cycle Detection Warning System, which is headquartered in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.

Can you email me a digital photo of your autograph, Mr. Timmermann...?

2. Bob Timmermann

You'll just use it to forge checks.

3. D4P

Nah, I'd use it for other stuff as well...

The last person who asked for my autograph said that I needed to give them my SSN to verify it.

What did you say on page 91? Something about curling?

2006-12-26 09:13:29

6. Bob Timmermann

I believe Page 91 is about dugout level seating at baseball stadiums.

You've succumbed to the classic Washington parlor game: checking the index of every new memoir to see if your name is in it.

It's all downhill from here.

Books about you. Gotta love it. Although I do not have a copy of it myself, I am in the Guinness book of World Records 1996 (UK Edition). A group a kids at my high school set the world record for longest paperclip chain but had the record broken before the US version was printed. Such is life.

I can just photocopy the index and mail it out to people!
