Quotes that took me for loop when I heard them!
"I need to charge my cell phone" -- Mom, as she came home after picking me up from the airport
"I bought it on eBay" -- Dad, after I asked him where he got the putter I'm borrowing for golf tomorrow
I also have to comment on the significant proportion of fans at the Mariners/Red Sox game I attended last night. Can there be such a large number of expat New Englanders in the Puget Sound region? I couldn't believe the sheer number of Red Sox paraphenalia being worn throughout Safeco Field. I must also mention that I found Red Sox fans to be particularly obnoxious, even moreso than Yankee Fans. Something must have changed upon winning the 2004 World Series that has given members of the Red Sox Nation them this sense that they can be more "in your face" than before their big victory. It seemed as if every time the Red Sox team did something positive, they all started pointing at us Mariners fans. Could it have been as childish as them feeling better at the expense of our unhappiness? It sure felt that way. In the end, the Red Sox fans had to be bummed by the fact that the Mariners swept the series 3-0.
