You Can'T Make This Stuff Up

I watched a ballplayer wave 'Hi' to the cardboard cut-out fans propped up in the stands At first I thought It's time to find a new optometrist Then I remembered This year Everyone has 20/20 vision

Great "insight" Gershon! You have so wonderfully captured the ironic humor of the 2020 baseball season! Understand one of the Chicago teams is doing well! Hope you are doing well - out of the park! All the best.

Thanks for the love on this one, Sam. Appreciated... And you're right: The Cubs are -- oops -- were doing well. They just snapped a four-game losing streak tonight, although they're still in first place in their division... The Sox are making some noise on the South Side, although they're only a game over .500 right now... We'll see what happens. Thanks, Gershon

Ha, ha! I love your sense of humor, Sigrid: 'Canned laughter' complements those cardboard cut-outs perfectly!' Meet you at the ballpark, but we'll have to bring our own food. I hear that the vendors all went on strike... :) gw
