Gee, that's the third time in a row you've posted without an OJ.

Three strikes and you're out.

OJ:

After many years in the convent, Sister Wendy went to her first major league baseball
game.

The first batter hit the 1st pitch and started running to first base. Everyone around her
stood up and cheered. Sister Wendy asked the man next to her why the batter was
running.

He explained that the batter had to reach first base quickly or else the other team would
retrieve the ball and throw him out.

The next batter got a hit and began running to first base. Sister Wendy stood up and
shouted "Run swiftly young man! Run swiftly!".

The next batter also got a hit and again Sister stood up and shouted "Run swiftly young
man. Run swiftly".

The next batter worked the pitcher to a 3 and 2 count and after fouling off several good
pitches the pitcher walked him. Sister Wendy again stood up and shouted "Run swiftly
young man. Run swiftly".

The man next to her said, "Oh Sister, he doesn't have to run. He has four balls."

With this Sister Wendy stood up and shouted, "Walk proudly young man. Walk
proudly"!
