A Concern.

I have a concern. A concern for the state of the sense of humor of this nation. Hey, do you remember in elementary when you were on the planet chapter of science and the teacher repeatedly said "Uranus" with a straight face. Dude, I couldn't hold it in, I would laugh every time, still do.
Anyways, back to my concern. Albert Pujols. You know, the famous baseball player. His last name is Pooh-holes! Numerous holes. I have never ever once heard his name said without giggling. But with the all-star game being yesterday, I have heard numerous sportscasters, newspeople, and just people in general saying Pooh-holes! And no one laughs or even cracks up just a little when they say it. I was under the impression, that "Pooh" and "Holes" are both sort of hilarious words. Then you put them together! Come on people, is this funny or not because I think it is. It could also possibly be that I have the maturity level of a 10 year old boy.

You know me and my love for sports (in other words, I've never heard of him), but I would certainly be giggling about Pooh-Holes. But maybe if I got paid a lot to not laugh I could keep it in too.

I laugh too Vanessa. Sometimes I wish the announcers would say it with more of a Spanish accent, but then again maybe that would make it even funnier.
