The World Series. Game seven. Bottom of the ninth inning. Yankees versus the Diamondbacks, winner take all. The anticipation engulfs me as I slowly move closer to the square box in the middle of the living room when my girlfriend calmly says,

"Can we change the channel to Seventh Heaven."

"What! Are you crazy?"

"But I don't understand what's going on. It's boring. Explain what's happening."

Now yes, I could put the game on mute and explain what is going on or I could pretend I didn't hear her and hopefully make it to the commercial break. OK, so what should I say?

"Woman, will you please be quiet, it's almost over!!!"
