by Alli Reed
I've been playing drinking games since I was sixteen, and had played just about every established drinking game known to man by the time I graduated high school. College is a time of experimentation and self-discovery: for some people, that means reading Nietzsche and falling in love for the first time. I chose to devote my entire creative energy towards inventing progressively stranger and more intricate drinking games.
I've built drinking games that revolve around card games, dice games, word games, lateral thinking puzzles, tests of physical prowess, and every popular movie and TV show from the last 30 years. I'm compiling all these games into my memoirs (working title: I Can't Believe I'm Still Alive Either: The Alli Reed Story); in the meantime, I tried to destroy your childhood by turning all your favorite kids' party games into excuses to get embarrassingly, inexcusably hammered. I figured I ought to test these drinking games out first — for science — and I took pictures, so good luck trying to get hired anywhere ever again, "friends."
Start with Pin the Tail on the Drunky…
Game 1: Pin the Tail on the Donkey
This is a game where, traditionally, an adult will blindfold a child, give them a sharp piece of metal, spin them around until they're disoriented, and set them loose in a crowd of unarmed children. Naturally, it's become a staple at birthday parties around the world.
The adult version is basically the same, except the blindfolded person is also drunk and there are a few more rules. Each part of the donkey comes with a different instruction, listed here from most desirable to most punishing:
- Tail: should you somehow manage to actually pin the tail on the donkey, you get to make every other player take a shot of your choice.
- Head: Double Down — you get to go again. If you land on the tail, everyone takes two shots of your choice; if you land anywhere else, you double that punishment.
- Leg: grab hands with the player of your choice and engage in a one-legged balance fight. First person to put their other foot down finishes their drink.
- Donkey body: the person who went before you decides what you drink.
- Outside the donkey: the two people with birthdays closest to yours mix their drinks together and you chug it.
Preparation required: Moderate. You'll need some large piece of paper to draw on (in my case, the back of a piece of Disney Princesses wrapping paper, in keeping with the 6-year-old-trapped-in-a-25-year-old's-rapidly-disintegrating-body theme), someone with enough artistic talent to draw a recognizable donkey, and some tape, because seriously, don't blindfold a drunk person and give them a thumbtack, dumbass.
Entertainment value: Moderate. There were a couple of runs of everyone getting the donkey body, which got tedious, but that was cancelled out by the schadenfreude of watching your blindfolded friend walk in entirely the wrong direction and knowing that he's ten seconds away from chugging a Coors Light mixed with a double shot of gin.
Drinking level: Moderate. Only one person ever got the tail, so you'll generally only drink on your turn. That said, it's likely one of your friends will get to decide what you drink at some point, and if your friends are anything like my friends, you'll be drinking a shot of Captain Morgan mixed with Scorpion Strike Hot Sauce. (Tip: do not have friends like my friends.)
Overall score: 7/10
Game 2: Pass the Parcel
The wet dream of blind consumerism, Pass the Parcel is a game where a present is wrapped in several layers of paper, and between each layer is a small prize. You pass the present around in a circle while music plays; when the music stops, whoever's holding the parcel unwraps the top layer and keeps the prize.
Wrapping an actual shot between each layer seemed unwieldy and soggy, so I decided to put a different drinking instruction on a piece of paper between each layer, including:
- Waterfall (all players begin drinking their drink, but can only stop when the person to their right stops; the person who unwrapped this instruction is the only person who can stop first)
- You and everyone wearing the same color shirt as you drinks
- Starting with you and moving clockwise, all players name a sexual position; the first player to hesitate or repeat a position drinks
Preparation required: High. You'll have to come up with at least 7 or 8 drinking instructions, find an empty box and something to wrap it in (wrapping paper, newspapers, old notepads filled with your hopes and dreams that you obviously won't be needing anymore), and then actually wrap the damn thing.
Entertainment value: High. There's the adrenaline of passing the box as fast as you can, the anticipation that the music might stop on you, and the Christmas-morning excitement of opening a present. Plus, each layer is a sort of mini-drinking-game, so you'll never get bored.
Drinking level: Moderate, although that's only because most of my instructions only had one player drink. There is endless flexibility and possibility to get your whole group drunker than a bachelorette party at Mardi Gras; it's basically the Lego of drinking games. If you can dream it, you can drink it.
Overall score: 9/10
Game 3: Hot Potato
I don't need to do any research to know exactly how this game developed originally. Some exhausted, broke parent ran out of ways to entertain their children, grabbed a potato from the barren cupboard and said, "Here, throw this around and…sing a song, and then…whoever's holding it when the song ends loses, I guess? Now go play outside while Mommy finishes her grape juice."
In my hands, Hot Potato became a sloppy, beautiful, and surprisingly dangerous hybrid between catch and karaoke. Fill a flask with your favorite hard alcohol, pick the chorus of a popular song, and have everyone sing that chorus while chucking the flask at each other. Whoever's holding it when the chorus ends has to drink from the flask and pick the next chorus.
Preparation required: Low. All you need is a flask that can be sealed securely and a solid knowledge of '80s power ballads and Disney musicals.
Entertainment value: High. You're throwing a metal flask at your friends' faces while singing "Sk8er Boi" at the top of your lungs, which is exactly what I imagine Thomas Jefferson had in mind with his "pursuit of happiness" bit.
Drinking level: Moderate. We had ten people, with an average chorus lasting a minute, so you're drinking max once every ten minutes. I had originally scored the drinking level for this game as "low," but then realized I may have a slightly skewed understanding of what "low" means in this context. Draw your own conclusions.
Overall score: 8/10
Game 4: Egg Race
In an inarguably dickish move during the Great Egg Shortage of '38, rich families would have their children put an egg on a spoon and run an obstacle course, trying and usually failing to keep the egg from smashing on the ground, while the omega-3-starved working classes looked on in horror.
I like to think we're a little more civilized in 2013, so we did the same thing but with alcohol. Fill your shot glass to the brim, pick a course, and whenever you cross the finish line, you can give whatever's left in your shot glass to anyone who finished after you.
Preparation required: Moderate. You need at least one shot glass per person, and since several of these glasses will likely be lost in battle, you might want to pick up some plastic ones.
Entertainment value: So, so high. I might be biased because of the friend who was in the lead until he ran full-force into a parking sign.
Drinking level: Depends how fast you can run. If you finish first, you'll end the night sober. If you finish last, especially if you're recovering from a losing fight with a parking sign, you'll be given more than enough alcohol to forget your woes (until your "friend" publishes the story online, that is).
Overall score: 7/10
Game 5: Red Rover
I'm going to level with you here: we were all very, very drunk by the time we got to this game. For those who don't know how Red Rover is played, you divide the group into two teams, who stand shoulder-to-shoulder holding hands and facing the opposing team. Team 1 picks a target from team 2, and then calls out, "Red Rover, Red Rover, send [target's name] right over!" The target then must run at full speed towards team 1 and attempt to break the grip of two of its members with the sheer momentum of their body.
It did not end well.
Preparation required: Just get drunk enough that this game seems like a good idea.
Entertainment value: It's all fun and games until you wake up in the morning with a sprained wrist/pulled hamstring/bruises literally everywhere, seriously, how did I manage to bruise my armpit? And why does it hurt when I breathe? What goddamn idiot thought this game was a good idea in the first place??
Drinking level: We were so drunkenly competitive that we forgot it was supposed to be a drinking game. We just played Red Rover.
Overall score: Don't play this game. Seriously, reader, I care about your health and well-being and no good can come from this. Just…okay? Promise?
Conclusion: This experiment led me to the same conclusion that humanity has come to over and over for centuries: every single goddamn thing is better with alcohol. I imagine this article has put me on some Child Protective Services watchlist, but in case I manage to get away with having kids, my future offspring are in for one hell of a childhood.

Monday's midnight deadline is quickly approaching. And for Nikali Luke of Simplified Accounting & Tax the end of income tax season is in sight. But not before one more hectic day of crunching numbers.
"They'll walk in at the last minute and ask, 'Can you fit me in?' So we're staffed and ready for those things to happen."
Income tax returns are due every year around the same time. But despite having about three months to complete filings, many people decide to procrastinate. And Luke says it usually the same people every year.
"Some people don't want to pay. Why pay earlier than they have to? For others, it's a thrill to wait until the last second to get it done."
If you're unable to get everything finished before time expires, you can file for an automatic six month extension. However, if you owe the government money, you still have to pay right away. The grace period simply gives you the time to collect the necessary paperwork.

Whitmarsh succeeded Ron Dennis as team principal ahead of the 2009 season, since when the team has failed to win the drivers' or the constructors' championship.
But Whitmarsh, who has been a key player at McLaren since joining the team in 1989, insists that he has not considered stepping down and is resolved to oversee a turnaround in the team's fortunes.
Button: McLaren updates nowhere near enough
He is also certain that the possibility of him being removed has not been looked at at board level.
"No, I don't believe it is being considered at board level at the moment as far as I know," he said.
"I believe in the team, I believe that we are going to power through this so no, I am not considering anything other than getting this team back to where it belongs."
Whitmarsh pointed to the difficult times McLaren has weathered in the past as part of the reasoning for not considering such drastic action.
He added that he is continues to enjoy the job.
"I have been around the sport for a long time," he said.
"I have sat here [and answered questions] in difficult moments, dark moments and I've sat here in good moments as well.
"I enjoy going motor-racing and I enjoy going motor-racing to win so I don't like it when you come with a car that is not good enough to win.
"I have been around when we have won more than 100 races and I am sure that we are going to win more races. We are going to work hard to do that this year."

text: Posted September 8, 2012 I don't know how one season of spending by a franchise which is known for going on the cheap and failing to restock the team suddenly is loaded with talent. Sure the Bucs are better but better than what? The worse franchise in the league last year?? Bottom line is that even though they quit last year, they were bad. They didn't suddenly get good overnight. There is absolutely no evidence that they are talented or will be better than last year. After Sunday there will still be questions and it won't be about the Panthers. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

text: I've been searching but can't find what I need so I was hoping to get some help here. I'm running the twenty ten theme and want to add a drop down menu of categories in the menu bar below the header image. I've found how to add it to the sidebar, but since I'm running it as one colum that won't work for me. Can anyone point me in the right direction?


text: even more reasonable than ibis, and the hotel is clean, with very warm welcomes, and quite modern . The location is good for business and to see Xian city too. Getting a taxi is not too easy but staff are very helpful , and showed me how to order on my phone. Thanks I will be back

This time optionsxpress has cost me dearly. They told me there was no immediate need to add money to my account to avoid a margin call. About an hour after that conversation, they liquidated my stock when it was at its lowest point. Optionsxpress defrauded me out of $35,000 in seconds.
About 6 hours later that same day I recieved an email warning me that there would be a margin call on the stock if I didn't add $1,500 to my account within 3 days. The problem is, they had already liquidated my stock positions. I've spoken with several representatives and managers and they agree that they made a mistake yet they do not wish to fix it.
They told me that they were even willing to put me back in the stock position I had with margin and then said they couldn't because my account didn't have the same money in it. I wonder why. I invite anyone who has gone through the same thing to contact me.
Any actions taken by optionsxpress that violate the laws of the federal government and/or state are illegal and unacceptable. I hope this helps others to avoid doing business with this kind of company. Please share your story so that others don't get ripped off by optionsxpress.

Well, after trying it for about a week I gave up and thought it better and easier to just buy the games. I sent and email requesting a refund and was well within my rights to get it, seeing as I only used it for 7 days and was unsatisfied. All I got was a run around. Different people trying to tell me how to download and sending me links to instructions.
When you have a problem with this company you have to open a "ticket". I have opened 4 now because they got to the point of just closing my tickets and not even responding anymore. My last "ticket" stated that I was going to go to my bank (which I did) and file a fraudulent claim. I will update this report when I hear back from them.
If you are reading this, than you are smarter that I was. Don't be fooled like me. Stay away, far away. Either go with a reputable business or do like I did and just buy the games outright. I bought a lot of 12 games on ebay for 20 bucks!! Way cheaper than this company anyways!!

Location and amenities were very good, staff was very friendly.
This hotel was appealing from the out side and decorated nice. Staff very pleasant.
Our room, mainly the bathroom, could have been cleaner. There was a visible yellow mark running about 3 inches down the lower part of the wall. It looked like urine to me. Also, the bedspread I think was due for a washing. The lobby and bfast good.
Older hotel that was reasonably well maintained. Fit our needs fine and location and price were good value.
Thin walls, but quiet hotel.

Am I nursing too much??
Married 4/20/2001
We nurse on demand, still every 2-3 hours during the day. Sometimes more. We do BLW but DS doesn't really eat anything yet, and we don't even try everyday.
( . )( . ) Double Platinum!
My DD only nurses or takes a bottle when she is tired, so before naps and bedtime or right when wakes up and is still groggy. Other than that she flat out refuses and will only eat solids. She gets a fruit midmorning and vegetable around dinner with some fingerfood type snacks a couple times a day.
I nurse on demand and when I'm with him it's every 2-3 hours during the day. When I'm at work he takes a bottle from my Mom about every 3-4 hours (3 oz). He's a porker btw.
We are still doing MOTN feedings too. I feed him when he's hungry. I'll do that until he's weaned and then we'll get on a schedule, then. He's growing just like my older two who turned out to be healthy eaters and sleepers. That worked for us.
I nurse on demand and it's definitely more than 4x a day! Lately he's been going longer between feedings (3.5-4hrs) but until pretty recently it was every 2-3hrs. He still hardly eats any solids either, he's just not that interested. As long as your baby is well fed and you're at least offering solids you're doing great!
I nurse on demand, and it's every 2.5 hours usually for us, even with solids once or twice a day. Sometimes the solids will push the next feeding back a bit, so it will be 3 or 3.5 hours, but not always.
He eats 2 to 4 oz of solids per feeding.
Who are these underwear abandoning cheaters? Theyre in such a daze post-coitus they just flip their underwear into the sky and skip off commando? -BBB
I say keep nursing like you are.
Take a look at this chart with info about calorie info of solids:
Breastmilk has about 22 calories per oz and gerber carrots have 7 calories per oz. So actually he is getting more calories by drinking breastmilk. Solids tend to have fewer calories but fill up his small stomach. He would have to take in 3 oz of carrots to get the same amout of calories as 1 oz of breastmilk.
Mommy to Vincent 10/17/09 and Olivia 10/17/11
Pay for diapers with Swagbucks - Earn Amazon gift cards.
Keep doing what you're doing! I nurse about every 2 hours during the day and two times at night. I do solids 2-3 times per day and she eats a lot! Every baby is different.

Posted on 02/01/2003 6:16:05 AM PST by GRRRRR
Shuttle has NOT been heard from or seen on tracking radar since 0800Hrs CDT. No contact at Merrit Island tracking station, no voice comm...DEVELOPING.
Way true .. and there's no excuse for not having a successor waiting in the wings.
Columbia was built in '79. How good was your PC back then? Even with every conceivable upgrade it would still be irrelevant today.
It was Nacodoches, TX, between Dallas and Houston.
The US taxpayers had nothing to do with it. Since social programs get more votes than space technology, blame it on the politicians who put re-election above all else.
On behalf of posters on Free Republic, I post this with deepest sympathy for the crew and their families.
Mission - sts107
Actually, a well placed tile might do it, but the shuttle typically loses some tiles during flight. If the tile were lost on one of the control surfaces (wings) and especially a leading edge of a wing then all bets are off. I'm sure the entire aerospace community will be doing CFD analyses for the next year in an effort to determine what kind of damage requires repair on-orbit for a safe reentry. Future flights will carry repair kits to fix such damage on-orbit.
Regards, Ivan
I remember hearing reports that the astronauts on the Challenger were alive when they hit he water. (Buttons pushed and other stuff that could have only been done by someone AFTER they survived the explosion). All of that was suppressed from the public. I always thought that was odd.
My tears have been flowing all morning, all the painful memories of 17 years ago returned.
My prayers for them and their families... :(((
Why not? They are never even interested in the space program until there is an accident. The media didn't even cover the Challenger launch until they found out it had blown up.
Heartbreaking indeed, W4T. Everybody here is just stunned, speechless in disbelief.
Regards, Ivan
Don't know if there was sarcasm in that, but I highly doubt there was any way a thug-nation missile would hit that.
They reported on CNN that each shuttle had a flight life of 100 missions.
Someone may have posted this already, but here's what I found.
"On launch day, a piece of insulating foam on the external fueltank came off during liftoff and was believed to have struck theleft wing of the shuttle.
Leroy Cain, the lead flight director in Mission Control, had assured reporters Friday that engineers had concluded that anydamage to the wing was considered minor and posed no safety hazard."

I hope I did this right. I'm still learning computer. :)
Shuttle Columbia broke up on reentry over TX. There is word that a piece flew off during launch and may have damaged the forward surface of the wing.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., Feb. 1 (UPI) -- Space shuttle Columbia and its seven-member crew, including Israel's first astronaut Ilan Ramon, were lost upon return to Earth Saturday following a 16-day space research mission.
Observers in Houston who could see the shuttle as it flew overhead enroute to the Kennedy Space Center in Houston reported debris falling from the sky.
"It looked just like the Mir breakup," said Stephen Clark, a contributor to spaceflightnow.com.
Ground control teams in Houston lost tracking and radio contact with the shuttle at 9 a.m. ET.
"Contingency procedures are in effect," said commentator James Hartsfield.
Under tight security, shuttle Columbia lifted off on Jan. 16. In addition to Ramon, the crew included commander Rick Husband, pilot Willie McCool, flight engineer Kalpana Chawla, payload commander Michael Anderson and astronauts David Brown and Laurel Clark.
Rescue teams have been alerted in the central Houston area and residents have been warned not to touch any debris, which could contain toxic substances. President George W. Bush was being briefed at the presidential retreat in Camp David, Md., and was preparing to convene domestic and military committees that may be involved in the shuttle emergency.
The mission was the first of six planned for this year, with the remainder of the flights devoted to space station assembly.
The loss of the shuttle and the crew comes 17 years after the Challenger accident, which claimed the lives of seven astronauts, including teacher in space Christa McAuliffe. The woman who trained alongside McAuliffe and served as her backup was to fly on Columbia's next mission this November.
There has been no determination what caused Columbia to fall from the sky.

Let's not drag anymore DU spew on this thread.
Please start one, if that is your interest.
I can't help but notice that Bush's parallels with Reagan are becoming spookier by the day. Now we add a Shuttle Tradgedy and the parallels become VERY noticeable.
Sorry about that. I was just getting frustrated with the talk about terrorism both on the news and in this thread.

Great shot..lots of texture and the blue is just gorgeous..and the pale flowers in the background make a lovely contrast. Really nice photo.
Merci pour celle ci et toutes les autres, j'aime voyager à travers tes photos. Patrick
Unusual colours but a great shot.
Cheers Jen
Very nice!
Oh how pretty is this, such abundance so close to the sea. Are these plants all resistant to salt spray?
Best wishes, Erik
They are quite happy with the salt spray Erik, we call they 'ice plants' and they are some kind of succulent.
Many thanks for the kind words mon, Jen, hamzars, Patrick and Jewels.
I have read about those Carpobrotus edulis was introduced to California to stabilize soil along railroad tracks.
Ice plant thrives in southern California. People surround their property with it as a firewall to protect against wildfires; ice plant contains so much water, it does not burn.
But I see a lot of different plants (species) here. One of the might be Phlox as it is referred to in this picture
Have a good day/night I'm of to work now.
Regards, Erik
very nice with the flowers L

After more than seven years behind bars, Antoine Jones is still technically an innocent man. But after two hung juries and one conviction overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, Jones is once again awaiting trial.
"You have a person who's inexperienced and you have two well-experienced prosecutors with paralegals sitting at the table and FBI detectives," says Jones.
Acting as his own lawyer and with a 12th grade education, he took on the feds in a U.S. district courtroom and fought them to a draw last month, a 6 to 6 hung jury.
"No evidence of drugs on me, with me, in my Jeeps, nowhere. But they expect a jury to convict me," says Jones.
Jones hasn't been free since his arrest in October 2005 when he owned two D.C. nightclubs, Kilis Kafe in Northwest and Levels in Northeast. Police stopped Levels manager Lawrence Maynard for speeding in Jones' minivan and found $69,000 in cash inside.
"I have two clubs. I deal with cash money," says Jones.
A later raid of a house in Fort Washington yielded nearly $2 million in cash and cocaine. Agents said it was Jones' stash house and that a GPS they secretly put on his Jeep proved he'd been there.
"That house had no ties or relationship to me at all," says Jones.
At his first trial in 2006, a jury acquitted Jones of 33 charges, but hung up on one conspiracy charge. At his second trial in 2008, another jury found him guilty of that conspiracy count. A judge sentenced him to life in prison, but then the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the GPS device agents put on his car without a warrant, linking him to the drug house, violated the Fourth Amendment. His conviction was overturned.
In January, prosecutors launched a third trial and Jones didn't like his court-appointed lawyer.
"If your lawyer don't have confidence in you and your lawyer's going to sell you out you need to and fight for yourself," says Jones.
U.S. attorney Ron Machen has declined all comment, except a statement that his office plans to try Jones a fourth time.
"They know I'm a fighter. If I have to fight a fourth trial, a fifth trial, a sixth trial, I'm going to fight until the end," Jones says.
A former prosecutor says the evidence against Jones is so strong it's amazing six jurors voted to acquit him. A date for his fourth trial has not been set. Jones has waived his right to a speedy trial, saying he wants time to look for a lawyer he can trust.

I need to be able to add CM Invite Codes as a profile field that can read across multisite network, this way users with invite codes can join memberships from any of our networked sites within their profiles.
In other words
- User A, member of Blog A needs to be a member of Blog B
- User A visits profile and punches in the invite code
- User A is now a member with Blog B
- Invite Code recognizes that it has been used X number of times for Blog B, and marks down that it has been used
- Each site will have it's own invite codes
I am using CM invite codes in combination with WishList Member, so basically I need the membership to get added as well.
Thank you for your support!

Intramolecular C-H···O Hydrogen Bonding in 1,4-Dihydropyridine Derivatives
AbstractThe diastereotopy of the methylene protons at positions 2 and 6 in 1,4-dihydropiridine derivatives with various substituents has been investigated. NMR spectroscopy and quantum chemistry calculations show that the CH···O intramolecular hydrogen bond is one of the factors amplifying the chemical shift differences in the 1H-NMR spectra.

Arum: Solis Has a Real Good Chance To Beat Klitschko
By Chris LaBate
Top Rank's CEO, Bob Arum, is giving undefeated Odlanier Solis a good shot of upsetting WBC champion Vitali Klitschko (41-2, 38KOs) on March 19 at the Lanxess-Arena in Cologne, Germany. Solis (17-0, 12KOs), a 2004 Olympic Gold medal winner, is a big underdog on both sides of the ocean. He was a top amateur who was groomed by the Cuban boxing system. Solis was recently co-promoted by Top Rank, but he was granted a release because Arum's company does very little business with the heavyweight division.
Arum considers Vitali as the tougher guy to beat among the two Klitschko brothers. Younger brother Wladimir will defend his IBO/IBF/WBO titles against another undefeated contender, Dereck Chisora, on April 30 in Germany.
"I give him a real good chance. You gotta remember, the fighters who were on the Cuban national team, who learned their boxing from Cuban trainers, have a leg up on most fighters because they got the best training in Cuba, better than anything in America. The only ones that are close are some Eastern Europeans. Cuba training is the best," Arum told Scoop Malinowski of boxinginsider.com.
"Now if Solis was fighting Wladimir, I'd feel a lot more confident. But he's fighting Vitali and even though Vitali isn't as talented as Wladimir, he's a harder guy. He's a real hard guy. I like Solis in the fight. It's going to be very tough to defeat Vitali. But if anybody can do it, it's Solis"
Any word on Solis' latest weight?Comment by shenmue on 03-08-2011
Solis is gonna take a huge beating, his only chance is Vitali getting a freak injury or getting DQ.Comment by Arthur Daley on 03-08-2011
[QUOTE=ShoulderRoll;10177783]So there is no such thing as a white Jew? :lol1:[/QUOTE] Arum is Jewish hence Asian, Klitschko is European is more what I meant to say. Using White is a silly term anyway, many pure Africans are White going by…Comment by ShoulderRoll on 03-02-2011

Blue Jays delving out frustrating losses
Usually, it's been the Blue Jays who have been suffering from late-inning collapses. Lately, they have been the ones delving out the frustrating losses.
I know this is a couple of days after the fact, but listen to Bruce Drennan's rant from Sports Time Ohio on the Cleveland Indians late-inning loss to the Blue Jays back on Wednesday.
See if you can count how many times he says "AHHHH" followed by a facepalm. It probably makes for a great drinking game.
Speaking of which, if you've got a couple of dilapidated tall cans left over from Labour Day 2009 sitting in the back of the fridge, why not turn on tonight's Blue Jays/White Sox game and join me for tonight's live blog on The Score?
It kicks off around 8pm, Shaun Marcum goes for his second win of the season versus Mark Buehrle.
Hat tip to Chris Jackson aka pcj3 for the link to the video.
