Forgot About The Bats
-
There was this guy who supported his local Little League team by making the bats for them in his woodshop. On game days, he would place the bats under a hedge near the street, and someone from the team would pick them up on the way to the ballpark.
One day, some Japanese children came to the guy's door, and asked if they might play in his yard
they even offered him a Japanese dollar if he would come out and play with them. The guy agreed and joined them. He was having so much fun romping and cavorting with the children, that he completely forgot there was a game that day, didn't get the bats out, and the team had to forfeit.
The moral of the story is that if you ever get a yen to gambol, be sure to hedge your bats.
