And you're still alive!!??!?!???
Spent 2 weeks in August visiting my son in Olympia, WA area and I wore my Yankees cap every day.....an survived! During the visit, the Mariners took 2 of 3 from the Yankees and when we were at the airport leaving, a young man (about 17 or 18) was sitting with an older couple and as I was going down the gangway to the plane, he said "Yankees Suck!!" I smiled at him and asked him when was the last time the Mariners won the world series and he said never. I then asked him the last time they won the AL title, and he said never. I then told him.."jealously is such a petty emotion" ... and he looked at me with a blank stare. Later in the flight, the older gentleman he had been sitting with (his grandfather) stopped me in the aisle and told me that is the first time he has ever seen his grandson speechless. The grandfather thought the comment was funny. BTW, the grandfather was a Red Sox fan.
