| Jan. 3, 2015 bashbro1 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: The Life Cycle of a Senior Softball Player A group of senior softball players, all in their 40's, discussed where a great place to meet for the season kick-off luncheon might be. Finally it was agreed that they would meet at Hooters because the waitresses were young, good looking, had nice personalities and wore short-shorts. Ten years later the same group of guys now at age 50 once again discussed where they should meet for lunch. Finally it was agreed that they would meet at Hooters because the food and service was good, they had many televisions to watch the games on, and the beer selection was excellent and they were there last year. Ten years later, at age 60, the team again discussed where they should meet for lunch. Finally it was agreed that they would meet at Hooters because there was plenty of parking, they could dine in peace, and it was good value for the money and they were there last year. Ten years later, at age 70, they discussed where they should meet for lunch. Finally it was agreed that they would meet at Hooters because the restaurant was wheelchair accessible and had a toilet for the disabled and they were there last year. Ten years later, at age 80, the same BFF again discussed where they should meet for lunch. Finally it was agreed that they would meet at Hooters because they had never been there before. BASH |

Ruth's participation in the 60’s Major plus division last weekend. Some of you board guys may have no idea what Joe “einstein” Rinaldi looks like up close and personal. Well, I got a pic of him in the set. Corky (Miken Rep) is also in the mix along with photos that try and capture the overall ambiance of a SSUSA Senior Softball event.

| May 5, 2009 bashbro1 | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: WENATCHE, WA SPRING “FUN” TOURNEY This tournament is held annually the last weekend in April and is our Pacific Northwest's “Spring Fun” tournament. Held in Wenatchee, WA about 150 miles from Seattle over the Cascade mountain range, it’s the first opportunity for teams and players to shake off the winter rust! The weather is typical clear and windy and players may play on a couple of teams during the two day event that is “self umpired” which allows for a more affordable 1st event. As usual I took a passel of pics that I’ve place in a slideshow for your viewing: Bashbro1 (W.E.

| March 22, 2009 bashbro1 | Topic: Bats Discussion: APOLOGY REGADING MIKEN U2 MAXLOAD >1.20? My most sincere apologies to SSUSA staff/Org and the entire message board contributors! I have subsequently found out to the recent posting of an email by me (bash), that it was indeed a base canard fabrication of truth! I had a hunch anyway with the misspelling of T.H. last name as I mentioned in the thread. I wish now I would not have posted it until further investigation on my part causing some additional and unnecessary heartburn to the discussions on this MSG board. Someone was playing a mean trick on a few of us and that’s unfortunate…but I’ll get over it and the culprit(s) will remain anonymous, as I’ll take their names to my grave. Only makes sense in retrospect now that of course the bat in question was and will remain legal for SSUSA play and hopefully into perpetuity cause it’s real HOT! Bashbro1 (I’ve been punked!) |
| March 12, 2009 bashbro1 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 60's Major Plus now has (17) teams! Hey Joe! I'm hitting them consistantly high, hard and far!! LOL The baristas are now just about ready to drop their babies...and they want to know if you're ever coming back to Seattle? bash (Ruth 60's Major Plus sink or swim according to the SSUSA rules) |
| March 10, 2009 bashbro1 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 60's Major Plus now has (17) teams! Hey Donnie! Good point on just how many of the qty(17) 60’s Major+ teams are planning to travel to the big tournaments this season? And then to facilitate decision making for teams by providing the opportunity to view other Major+ teams tournament schedules from around our great nation. We could simply view each other’s calendars to determine if it would be worth while to attend a particular event or not and then maybe to apply some fun type “pressure” to get teams to a tourney. I personally, would like to see SSUSA provide the median/facility for such a function, maybe by using their SSUSA web site in some manner to provide for centralized viewable updated team calendars. We, W.E. Ruth 60’s, have placed our tournament schedule on a web site called “keepandshare.com” and it’s FREE of charge! You can make your calendar PUBLIC or PRIVATE. When the calendar is opened it opens to the current month then it’s a simple matter of paging forwards or backwards from month to month viewing or using the GoTo dropdown list to view a particular month directly. There is also a Print button to print a page(s) if you like a hard copy. It would be beneficial, in my not so humble opinion, to have at our fingertips, a centralized web based calendar system where teams/ managers/coaches/players and even ‘einstein’ could view from anywhere in the world just by logging in to the internet. Our Ruth 60’s Public calendar for 2009 events can be viewed by embedding the following link into your Browser’s address text box and pressing the Enter key or the GO button: http://www.keepandshare.com/calendar/show_month.php?i=650542 Bash (Ruth 60’s playing out of Kent, WA just south of Seattle) |
