ASMW turns one year on Friday the 29 of August. There is a special promotion if you are not signed up with Amie Street already. You can wait here until I get my ASMW up tomorrow, or you can visit the site. The promo is active now.
I hope you have enjoyed the year of music here at Mouse Clone.
I was spending some time on digg this morning looking over the ones that people seem to adore or what has been dugg. I came across this story on the opening page [link to digg]. The digg story links back to a Sports Illustrated article [link to SI].
You will want to take the time out to read the story. It is very interesting. You have a mother that is mad because they will not let her son play. You have other parents that will not let their children play with the boy pitching.
This kid can pitch at 40 mph. That is crazy. At 9 years of age, he has pitched 40 mph, and caused a team to forfeit a match when he took the mound. Talk about being feared.
They say that he needs to play with older kids and that he is to good for age group that he is in. That doesn’t mean that he will be able to run with those of a higher age group either. They really should let him pitch.
What are your thoughts on this. Would you let your children play against someone that was well above their skill level? Would you with draw your team from a match because someone has a better pitcher? If you were the parents of this child, would you try to keep him in the same age league, or would you move him up a league if they would take him? let me know your thoughts.
I thought that this might be fun. Gruntled had it posted up on his, and I thought that I would share mine.
Your result for The Heart Test…
Matches for the Hero’s Heart:
The Slave to Emotions
The Slave to Emotions is idealistic and values harmony as you do, but is more intimate, something you can greatly understand, and craves love more. Being an idealist, you can appreciate such a person, and being the hero that you are, desire to be the one to break their emotional chains and set them free by making them feel loved, which is what the Slave desires above all other things. You will get great satisfaction from rescuing the Slave from their bindings.
The Lonely Heart
The Lonely Heart needs to be loved, and being a hero, you will be able to see through their harder outward appearance to see the true intimate and caring person inside. Lonely Hearts crave love, and though they are more practical than you are, you will greatly admire their differences and feel a true bond with them.
Your exact opposite is Broken Heart.
Avoid Explicits when possible. You value harmony and closeness, and don’t want that to be disrupted. Also avoid Independents, as you would feel more comfortable being the rescuer, and might not feel a connection with someone who is as self-sufficient as you are.
