This is a good one for beginners!!

deontology (meaning 'obligation' or 'duty') is an approach to ethics that focuses on the rightness or wrongness of actions themselves, as opposed to the rightness or wrongness of the consequences of those actions.

Now Juggs stop trying to confuse people. :)

You laugh, but icallfouls and I actually sat through a 70 min. lecture on how the Yellow Brick Road is a metaphor for our officiating careers...it was the most surreal 70 min. of my life.

And leave the munchkins alone.

Word.

It is a good metaphor for baseball umpiring. There's no place like home.

You're right. I laugh. Howinthehell did you guys ever keep a straight face during sumthin' like that?

Now, if was maybe a story about assignors and a munchkin singing "Ding-dong, the witch is dead", it mighta been a l'il more interesting.

Who said I kept a straight face??? The person giving the presentation was quite angry with me later in the camp when I told the campers not to take officiating so seriously - it's just something we do for fun and we need to keep it in it's place.

Made for some interesting conversations after the campers left.

Sorry about the $10.00 word. I\'m sure that someone can replace it with a $2.00 word.
