A Penguin joke

Y'all have probably seen this one, but I like it.

A penguin drives into town with car trouble. He takes it to a mechanic. The mechanic tells him to come back in an hour. So the penguin decides to go have an ice cream. Because he has no arms he has to peck at it and gets it all over his face. He returns later to see the mechanic and the mechanic says, "Looks like you blew a seal." The penguin says, "No, that's just ice cream."

OK, the betting window has closed.

A few weeks ago I proposed a bet for which team will have the best record in the National League.

Since the season has now started, the bets are closed. Here are the bets:

[livejournal.com profile] gridlore - San Francisco Giants

[livejournal.com profile] aurictech - St. Louis Cardinals

[livejournal.com profile] bunyip - Chicago Cubs

[livejournal.com profile] redroach - Houston Astros

Let the games begin!

Spring training was mixed. We split the games we played, and while Barry had a fantastic time in the Cactus League, there were many questions left unanswered.

Well today we started getting some answers as the Giants opened their year in San Diego

San Francisco Giants: 5
San Diego Padres:2
