Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Panel Chairman Scolds Baseball on Steroids

In the immortal style of Jeff Goldstein, Tom Davis, R-Va, talks to a steroid-enhanced baseball:

Davis: Do you KNOW what steroids will do to you!? DO YOU!?

Baseball:

Davis: Are you not aware of not only the effect it has on you, but on the sanctity and purity of America's game!?

Baseball:

Davis:
It sickens me that we have sports equipment like you, pumping your yarn-and-rubber insides with anabolic steroids!

Baseball: Mr. Chairman, I would like to invoke my Fifth Amendment rights, but let me warn you RIGHT now that you're REALLY getting on my nerves!

Or, the alternative reading:

I AM TOM DAVIS, AND I AM KING OF THE PANEL! FEEL THE AWESOME POWER OF MY GAVELLING ARM!
