Lake Malawi, Africa's 3rd largest lake, has an estimated 1000 species of fish- more than every lake in North America combined! Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Joseph Jo Jo Reyes started 20 games without a single win- from June 13, 2008 until May 30, 2011! While stopped at a light in Meadville, PA, USA, in 2007, Alex Habay's car was hit from behind by 1500 pound wrecking ball! It had snapped free from its chain and roll downhill, hitting 9 parked cars before stopping in Habay's trunk.

Looked up Jo-Jo’s stats, and the only question I have is what’s keeping this guy in the majors? He’s got a career 6.09 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, and .301 BAA, in five seasons. He must have a great arm, but at some point you conclude that the boy just ain’t got it.

Usually mental not physical problems keep a pitcher from making it.

But Jo-Jo still laughed as he walked with millions of dollars in pay. Countries and the people in them sure have their priorities backwards. If people put even half the amount of energy into something that would actually benefit their society as they put into useless sports, what a difference it would make!

…I wonder if his insurance will cover that?

The Astros would trade their some of their best players for somebody like him – And throw in some cash. – But wait – they’ve already done that.

Wrecking ball hits car – that should be an interesting accident report and insurance claim.

I’d rather have 100 15-pound bowling balls in the trunk?That would be right down my alley!

If that wrecking ball hit my car, I wouldn’t settle for no less that a million dollars from that company’s insurance!
