    lol, I think Stanley is find and do understand. Some people can catch a fly ball and others can catch a fly sword fish.

    Maybe he’s just very uncoordinated at ball hitting sports so fishing is more his thing.

    I always liked the kids that didn’t quite fit in! I also wanted to tell you that I had to “unfollow” and the “follow” you again…I don’t know what’s up with WP, but you and a few others just weren’t appearing in my reader. Just in case you begin to miss a few people…thought I’d let you know! I was sorry to miss you yesterday! Debra

    Poor Stanley. He’s oblivious to what awaits him, but who knows? Maybe there’ll be pond by the outfield. Very funny, Carl. I like how it’s seasonal, just in time for summer.
