    We have a winner!! Quietly, Karen watched and waited, and then pounced

    She said she will do the next puzzle.

    If the Constitution is what the Supreme Court says it is, then the strike zone is what the umpires say it is.

    I'm reading a book about baseball umpires, and this quote was in it. When I tried to find it on-line, I couldn't - so figured I would pull a Karen

    I need to apologize to those across the ocean - I didn't think, until it was posted, that baseball is mostly foreign to you all.

    Thank you for the thought Grace, because I don't understand the quote even now that the puzzle is solved.

    I wonder if I can explain somewhat. Better yet, this link can explain it better.

    Every umpire seems to have his own variations on a theme.

    As for the first half, our Supreme Court can, and often does, interpret the Constitution contrary to what some feel is correct.

    Have I helped - or just made things worse
