What I Did On My Autumn Vacation. By Ron Kantowski.

Apparently, baseball also is the Native American Pastime.

But it turned out to be a pleasant experience. My five-year-old niece scored her first career goal. And I swear that if the coach hadn't taken so long to move her to forward and that darn referee hadn't missed so many calls, the game wouldn't even have been close.

I know hunting (sometimes) serves a purpose. But you should have heard parents struggling to explain to their preschoolers why the men with shotguns decided to blow up Bambi.

As a guy leaving the port-a-potty cracks, you'd think the four states could pool their resources and build one restroom with indoor plumbing.
