It's just as well - if they had, it could have been very confusing. <br /><br />SENATOR Mr. Chairman, I'd like to thank the witness for agreeing to testify today. Though I don't follow baseball closely, I consider the issue of illicit substances to be of critical importance in American sports. I have one question for the witness: Sir, will you tell us names of players that use these substances?<br /><br />PLAYER Yes, sir. I can tell you Who is on steroids.<br /><br />SENATOR Good. Then who is on steroids?<br /><br />PLAYER That's correct.<br /><br />SENATOR I want the player's name.<br /><br />PLAYER Who.<br /><br />SENATOR The player on steroids.<br /><br />PLAYER Who.<br /><br />SENATOR I'm asking you who's on steroids?<br /><br />PLAYER Who.<br /><br />SENATOR The guy on steroids is who?<br /><br />PLAYER Correct.<br /><br />SENATOR I warn you, sir, not to make a mockery of this hearing. You are under oath. What is the name of the player on steroids?<br /><br />PLAYER: No, sir. What is on androgen.<br /><br />SENATOR I'm not asking who's on androgen!<br /><br />PLAYER Who's on steroids.<br /><br />SENATOR I don't know!<br /><br />PLAYER He's on Oxandrin.<br /><br />SENATOR Who?<br /><br />PLAYER I Don't Know.<br /><br />SENATOR Who is on Oxandrin?<br /><br />PLAYER No, sir. Who is on steroids. <br /><br />SENATOR That does it. I have had enough. You, sir, are stonewalling!<br /><br />PLAYER No, sir. He's up next.<br /><br /><br />Frank Cammuso is the editorial cartoonist for The Syracuse Post-Standard.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>The Gator Speaks:</b><p>Neither one, .... they're good.<br /><br />One day I was coming out of the dressing room, and I see a guy passing my door in what looked like a bathrobe.<br /><br />He's going to his studio, and I'm going to mine.<br />Being that he's in front of me, I see something that looks like a sword sticking out from beneath the back of his robe.<br />As he was approaching the doors of his set, I called out to him and said, "That must be one tough set you're working in."<br />He swirls around, and we both got into a conversation.<br />Me, in broken English.<br />He, in broken Japanese.<br />It was my favorite Samurai.<br />John Belushi, and he stayed in character all the way.<br />Besides having perfect timing, the man was a brilliant actor and comedian.<br />Whatta loss.<br />Joe P.<br />
