Fun??  Hmmm...  I'm not a poet.  Can't say I even have any substantial appreciation for poetry, though that's unquestionably to my own detriment.  Poetry used to have a more prominent role on this list - in the olden days, if you will, but it's just not my thing.  Not much I can do about that, I suppose.

Maybe I should just talk about baseball.  I can do that halfway competently sometimes.  How 'bout them Angels, eh???

At least I'm not talking about how cool Karin's hair is - I'm not worshipful enough for that...
