Care to take a stab at the extra credit?

For breakfast you had to suck on a piece of cactus! You never had a toy to play with. You never had a pair of brown-and-white shoes. You never even took violin lessons. But you knew that you wanted to play baseball. You couldn't afford any equipment! So you made a catcher's mitt out of a satin pillow reading: "Greetings from Yellowstone Park!" You couldn't afford a bat, so you used your little brother. The other kids wouldn't play with that brave little lad with the weird mitt and the talking bat."
