The world likes to play evil tricks. The kind where you think that a video camera is hiding somewhere capturing your frustration and amusement. It all started off innocently enough. I was hitting the ball around with my loiusville slugger that I got as birthday present when I young, it still has my name written on it in the best primary printing I could muster. I popped the ball up and it got stuck about 30 feet up in a spruce tree. So, what do i do? I throw my bat at it a couple of times trying to knock it down, then on the my last attempt, the tree ate my bat and deposited at the tip of the 40 foot tree.
