Third Base

I was recently doing a little research into my youth for a certain project I've been working on when I came upon my Catholic elementary school's new official website. Upon delving into the content of the site I discovered that they have a new after-school extended care program for all the cute little Catholic kiddies who have no parents or guardians to watch over them in those dangerous afternoon hours between the final ring of the school bell and the first ring of the dinner bell.

Unfortunately, they have decided to name this program "Third Base":

Is it just my disease-ridden, Internet-addled mind, or is that one of the most inappropriate names imaginable for an extended care program? Especially at a school run by Catholic priests. They may as well have named it Father McGinty's Good-Touch Bad-Touch Exploratorium.

I think perhaps they should seek out some generous parishioner in the PR industry, stat, and consult their nearest Urban Dictionary before they end up calling their next Church Picnic a "Meat Retreat".

That reminds me of the daycare in my hometown called Fuzzy Pickles Playschool. No Jokes, it is listed under daycares here:

The Giant Eagle grocery store at Pittsburgh's waterfront location has a babysitting room called "The Eagle's Nest". I informed the manager that this was the name of Hitler's bunker in Austria.

Hilarious. I read the Mission Statement...I'm guessing as you wait your turn, it's nude chess.

Child abuse is no laughing matter, you should all be ashamed.
