Poor Pinata!

If you don't live in the Twin Cities -- and I realize most of y'all don't, as least ones I know about -- you've missed the opportunity to see a tremendously fun series of "Twins Territory" commercials this year. It's hard to set aside my personal bias (I'm a major Twins fan doing a lot of baseball learning this summer), but I think these are just so fun. This spring, we've seen:

• Johan "El Presidente" Santana carpooling with closer Joe Nathan and explaining the importance of his wicked change-up,
• Cuddy -- an amateur magician in real-life -- cutting Johan in half as new daddy Juan Rincon looks on (Bat-girl was right; he does look like BooBerry),
• And the "Little Piranhas" up close and personal at Underwater World.

But my favorite, which I hadn't seen this year until I bumped into it on YouTube, was one from 2006 starring my boyfriend. Ladies and gentleman, kids of all ages, Torii "Sweetcheeks" Hunter.
