...rented a little house on 24th Street and began an international dating service called A Foreign Affair, a.k.a. loveme.com They ran ads in Russian newspapers asking women to send photos and vital statistics, and several weeks later their website debuted with 300 Russian princesses. Today they are the Manny, Moe and Jack of love. They have profiles of 6,500 women from 49 countries, dozens of clients have married, and they've hired six more employees in Phoenix and 20 in Russia.

...four inning's worth of beer, at which point Martinez already had eight strikeouts, the suspicious reserve of most English-speaking fans had evaporated, and they joined in the cheering. Luckily, the vocabulary of baseball is fairly simple in any language: by inference, ponchalo means "strike him out," jonrUn, Moe means "homerun, Moe," Yanquis, when inflected properly, means "somebody please kill that bastard," and of course Medias Rojas means...
