    Quiet is an excellent read.
    I find myself having trouble with small talk as well. I'd rather talk about personal things, but for some people its awkward to start personal. Therefore, I'll come off as indifferent or uninterested or just creepy at times and conversations never get started. I can sit for 12+ hours at the poker table and never lose interest. Its a good mix of being among people while not being obligated to hold a conversation throughout. I dread speaking in front of large groups. When my brother got married I was co-best man. I had to make a speech and I was terrified. I knew it meant a lot to my brother so I studied hard and performed in front of my mirror for weeks until I memorized every word and expression. Eventually I gave an 8 minute speech and was congratulated by many people I didn't even know. A few told me it was one of the best speeches they had ever heard. I was one of the greatest moments of my life, because I got to share it with my family. I was drained for a week, but relieved. 
     
    *I heart AW because if it wasn't for you guys as a whole I would still be a shy little hermit kid with no spine. I grew with this group in a big way.  (Spring Training '09 - Thank you)  I will always remember where I came from.

    If the Angels give up Will Wilson to trade for David Price and miss out on Cole and Rendon, Eppler should be fired immediately.

    You don't trade a 1st round draft pick for a shitty PTBNL and cash. Something is brewing folks.

    It's a huge, necessary improvement. Kinda like Upton in LF.

    Uh, Pujols is batting .000 (0-2) this Spring.
    Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse for Pujols following a nightmare 2017 season, he's even worse!
