Reviewed the budget for our new R&D facility tonight. The contractors keep using the term 'ballpark figure,' which is amusingly crude. My mind wanders to actual balls - how men's testicles must feel, the weight and texture of a scrotum in one's hand. Is it like stress relief putty? Do they enjoy having them touched, or is it purely functional? Another biological curiosity I'll never experience firsthand. Back to the spreadsheets.
