I have a Joey Gallo profile as a poster. Long stretches of no posting events, but the ones that do happen are high quality. This is a very paradoxical thing to my preference for many batted ball events when I watch the games.

There are known knowns. There are known unknowns. And there are the  unknown unknowns.

Back in my day, there were just nouns.

You left out your specialty during your lengthy career: the unknown knowns.

Thanks for the reassurance.

I can rest easy.

You want a posting event about something I don't know I know?

I think the thunderstorm (on the east coast) is almost past.

 

Thanks for the company, and don't let a house fall on you on the way home!

I certainly do!

I just want to make sure that I have enough/not enough Scotch in order to follow along!

You turn on the wipers and headlights, and perhaps slow down a little.

If your alcohol consumption event involves "all of it" you'll never be left wondering if your event had ",enough"

That sounds unpleasant.  Maybe I don't want rain after all.

I thought the reverse was true.  "How can I know what's enough, until I've had too much?"

It would never catch on with the drivers here, I'm certain.

I guess that leaves me something to strive for.

I'm not sure it would here either, frankly.

I mean, if you drink it all, you've given it your best shot.
