And now, a special message from a guest writer…

Hey universe, what up? (I’m talking to the entire universe here. I have met all 14 people that exist and seen all 3 rooms.) I’ve been here quite some time now, nearly 4 weeks, so I feel I’ve got it all figured out. Still, there’s some things that are a little silly, aren’t there? Let’s discuss them.

Have you ever noticed that sometimes weird lights appear in that giant dark expanse that exists 6 feet beyond your face? ‘Sup with that? And talk about some big people that wander out of the darkness. This one guy with a deep voice that sometimes smells funny has hands bigger than my whole body. I call him, “Big Voice and Hand Guy Who Isn’t Mom.” He’s cool I guess, but almost never lets me drink milk from his nose or nipples, though I try. Oh, how I try.

Spoiling the guests….

The Lost King writes: “The Real ‘Curse’ of the Chicago Cubs”

Something new today, Internet: A guest writer! This comes from my friend The Lost King, who doesn’t have a blog of his own. He is a born and raised Chicago Cub fan and these are his words. TuckerBlogs.com does not endorse the Chicago Cubs.

This is also a direct response to A few OTHER key questions, posted on this very weblog. I have not edited The Lost King’s words in any way, so any typos or vernacular used is his own. I did add a few pictures, though. Feel free to blame me for that.

I give you The Real ‘Curse’ of the Chicago Cubs:

An attitude of losing.  I could end the blog reply with just that phrase.

What happens to someone who gets used to a specific way of life?  Whether that “way” is one of abundance or one of lack?  The abundance or lack keeps showing up.  The argument then, when considering the Chicago Cubs, has to do with the idea that the fans are not the ones who are playing the damn baseball games.  That’s obvious.  The players are not the ones who have an attitude of losing - they would not be professional baseball players if they did.  They would not have made it to such a level of athleticism, in general, if they did.  So why then, do the Chicago Cubs continue to lose year in and year out and how could professional athletes?
