Shorts or pants?
 
I was just assigned a partner for a kids rec game next week and I emailed him to confirm and to tell him I expected to be on time. This is SOP. He emailed a confirmation back and said he was going to be wearing shorts. I replied that I was going to be wearing shorts and pants and I put a smiley face after that. Apparently, he didn't get it. He emailed back that he was going to wear pants to the game because it would be cold but would wear shorts during the game.

If this is an indication of his sense of humor, we're going to have a problem. :p

You can wear shorts??? Oh yeah, I see it now, this is a wreck game. I'll bet he's never had a partner like you before!:D

Or you could go with the Bobby Hill look and wear short-pants.

I would have been worried that he would show up in non-black shorts.:eek:
I probably would have emailed him just to remind him that we wear black.

No, here in Oregon we wear green with a patch showing a hippie from the 60s hugging a tree. :cool:

In Minneapolis area, it's 50/50 shorts or pants for weekend basketball (5-9 grade). Both are supposed to wear the same. The assignors don't care, just as long as both are the same.

Don't know how to tell you this, Mark, but marijuana isn't a tree.

What do you think I mean when I say "meds" and why do you think I moved to Oregon as soon as the 60s were over? ;)
