Cal.E.'s Corner




I would walk ten miles on my hands and knees Ain't no doubt about it baby it's you I aim to please I'd wrestle with a lion and a grizzly bear It's my life baby but I don't care

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

For you baby I would swim the sea Nothing I'd do for you that's too tuff for me I'd put out a burning building with a shovel and dirt And not even worry about getting hurt

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

I'd work twenty four hours, seven days a week Just so I could come home and kiss your cheek I love you in the morning and I love you at noon I love you in the night and take you to the moon

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

I'd lay in a pile of burning money that I've earned And not even worry about getting burned I'd climb the Empire State Building, fight Muhammad Ali Just to have you baby close to me

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff Ain't that tuff enuff

C.: AAAnd I’m back with my co-host, author and nurse d.c. scot. d.c., that’s a snazzy outfit you have on today.



d.: These are my pajamas, Cal.E.

C.: You don’t work the night shift anymore, d.c. so, why are you wearing your pajamas in the middle of the day?

d.: I’m tired, Cal.E. I couldn’t find anyone to work for me the last two days, so I went in to work You know about the situation. I wasn’t planning on working this weekend, but it was necessary. So, I went in to work at The Kennel the last two days.

C.: I didn’t think that was an option, d.c.

d.: The doctor said that I could if it was absolutely necessary. It was. Anyway, I figured out how to get through the weekend working in The Kennel.. Now, I just need to rest for a couple of days before working another shift.

C.: How did you deal with your situation, d.c.?

d.: Let’s just say that I figured it out and leave it at that. That’s what one does when faced with a difficult situation, figure things out. That’s one reason I encouraged my sons to play sports when they were young. It taught them how to handle difficult situations.

Baseball is not my favorite sport, but I encouraged all three of my sons to play the game, because it teaches those who play it how to deal with failure and still succeed. Last night, the Astros leading RBI man was batting. Kyle Tucker hit a routine grounder to second base and was thrown out at first base. He still succeeded. There was a runner on third base, and there were less than two outs. The run scored, and the Astros won the game by one run. Now, the Astros will be the first team in this century to go to the World Series in consecutive years.

Kyle Tucker is an unselfish player. He switched positions to accommodate another player until he could be placed in his best position, right field. He won a gold glove playing left field and will probably win one playing right field this year. He is also a good hitter with a lot of power. Last night, though, he didn’t try to hit a home run. He simply did what the situation called for him to do. He put the ball in play, and the Astros won the game.

That is the way winners operate. They don’t complain because the person who tried to cheat for your team ordered the roof to be open, and it caused one of your fielders to make an error. That error probably didn’t cost the Yankees the game, but Aaron Boone thought it was a good excuse for losing. Hopefully, Hal Steinbrenner will fire his head whiner and he won’t be asked to manage another Major League baseball team. As far as I’m concerned, he should fire his whole team, with one exception.

Hal’s dad, George, may have fired his whole team. Hal won’t, nor should he fire all his players. Aaron Judge is an excellent player who doesn’t make excuses. He’s a free agent now. Can you imagine if the Astros picked him up off the free agent market to play centerfield? The ALCS MVP would then probably bat in the bottom third of the order. That’s how strong the Astros’ lineup would be!

C.: Well, hopefully, that will happen. Until then, to the present Astros: Congratulations on beating the team the commissioner of Major League Baseball orchestrated a coverup for involving their cheating scandal. The Astros beat both the Yankees and the commissioner’s office last night! GO ASTROS!
