re:baseball--

can i ask a question?  what do people think--is baseball sinister in 
that it is part of "them" or in that it undermines "them".  Is it 
surreptitiously part of the conspiracy, or is it subversive?  The 
reference to white lines implies the former, but baseball's potential 
for "transcendence" of time, of "death" (no such thing in baseball as 
"sudden death"--only long slow strides into the bottom half of the 
10th, i guess...) implies the latter.

just wunderin'
