To carry along with the Easter discussion we had yesterday here’s Jim Gaffigan’s take on the holiday.

HYSTERICAL!

A man walks into a bar and says to the bartender, “Want to hear a [insert enthnicity here] joke?”

The bartender says, “Whoa man, see that guy over there? He’s [insert enthnicity here]. And see her at the end of th bar? She’s [insert enthnicity here]. Plus, me too, I’m [insert enthnicity here]. So you still wanna tell your joke?”

The man stops and says, “Yeah, you’re right, I haven’t got time to explain it three times.”

Here is the beginning of a joke. Someone else finish it off.

A skittle salesman walks into a bar and says “I have a perdiction to make.”

ENY–you are right, but I so much prefer a team built from the ground up then one stitched together via free-agency. I became a Yankees fan in the 95 season, when everywhere you looked there was talent coming up from the farm system. They lost a remarkable 5 game series to the Mariners that year in the first round but I was hooked. That group (96-00 Yanks) was such a treat. There is so much that can go wrong when rewarding pitchers like Sabathia and Burnett (who can only perform every 5 days) that kind of dough. I hope I am wrong of course, but that perdiction is something that haunts this Yankees fan’s dreams.

“Perdict” sounds like a word they’d use in the movie “Deliverance.”

Just like “You got perdy lips.”
