This does it! Completes the trifecta!

A little less than a week to find three truly wild bear tales. Goldilocks can rest easy now!

Ichiro wants to play in MLB until he's at least 50. Any chance?

He's almost 44. The Marlins have an option on him for $2 million next season.

He came off the bench a lot this year and is hitting .259 with 20 RBI and 3 HRs.

He has 3,080 career hits (plus more in Japan), and ranks 22nd all-time in MLB hits.

"You get judged by your numbers and what you've left behind when you leave this game," Ichiro said. "I think everybody in here would want to [break the record], because we're all professionals. We're all trying to do something and leave a mark on the game.

"I have an opportunity now to do something that can leave something behind. I think it's a great opportunity."

Do you even bother trying to persuade the other side anymore? DO YOU EVEN TRY???

Other online discussion boards or forums?

Friends, family, co-workers in person or via social media?

If they're on the right, do you even take a serious stab at trying to help them see the merits of being more tolerant, fairer and less bigoted?

So many discussions quickly deteriorate into name calling and insults. It just seems futile.

I get dragged into it at times (okay, I allow myself to type away inconsequently), but I can't help myself. It's like I believe that if I finally stumble upon those key words, that one touching incident, that overwhelming statistic, I might finally break through. But it never seems to happen.

Have you won anyone over? Ever?

What exactly is the "right way" to protest?




The right never really says what form of protest would be acceptable. Let's face it, they don't want to hear about minorities' troubles AT ALL!

What meal did your family serve when you were a kid

and you still can't stand it to this day?

For me, it's mussels and clams. Pretty much any shell fish. Yuck!
