Battlefields and Southern food. That's all I know.

 

And Faulkner, or so I hear.

[ashbury]

And this is coming from someone who didn't buy his first car till last December.

 

You can get by on just a second car for many years if you're careful about it.

[Gibby]

And Faulkner, or so I hear.

 

 

And Harper Lee.

OPS battle of the millennium updated...Florimon .354 Hermann 274.

[LaBombo]

I've lived both places. Never made so much money, or had so much fun in my life. In fact, I'm probably still alive because I left.

Visited Boston many times and NYC a few. Fun, but couldn't do it full time...

[Riverbrian]

I would stay in Grand Forks until my youngest graduates. Grand Forks has been more than I coulda hoped for when it comes to raising a family.

 

In two years... I'd do it.

 

1. Lake Minnetonka... Close enough to the action but it really doesn't feel big city. I'm a born and bred Minnesotan... So I already know everybody.

 

2. Ft. Myers... I'd love to live on a warm Gulf... Hurricanes and Jelly Fish are alright with me. No income tax in a Florida... Twins Spring Training.

 

3. Hilton Head or even Charleston SC... I really liked Hilton Head... I'd be golfing all day... May even get my score down around 90 after awhile... If Charleston... Gibby could cook for me.

[ashbury]

You know how some teams will lull you for a while and then suddenly overwhelm you with power hitting? The Twins do that with walks - quiet for a while and then five walks in ten PA. Not quite a substitute for power in the long run, though...

About as dignified as this battle, but less entertaining.

Oh, yeah. Him, too. (English major.)

[Riverbrian]

Hay-on-Wye, Vienna, and Ljubljana.

 

I think you are making those places up.

You got it. I'm at my happiest when I'm cooking for people.

[Riverbrian]

How much in unpaid tolls do you owe?

 

$32.57

[ashbury]

OPS battle of the millennium updated...Florimon .354 Hermann 274.

 

By millennium, you are suggesting an over-under for when they collectively reach OPS 1.000?

[ashbury]

$32.57

 

You were able to bargain them down from the usual 25 cent increments?

[LaBombo]

Might be one batter too late for Hughes.

Haven't seen Gigan for quite a while.

Chefs get the Rock Start treatment. It was almost as important to be a bit of a character than it was to kick ass in the kitchen. I was a bit of an attention whound back in the day.

[Willihammer]

I think its ok to shift on right handed hitters now

[ashbury]

I really liked Hilton Head...

 

Paris Hilton joke in three... two... one...

What can you do with Diamond Head?

Negative nancy says "Swarzak is your best option?"

[Riverbrian]

You got it. I'm at my happiest when I'm cooking for people.

 

Awesome... Just make sure it's something I can pronounce.

 

BTW... I think the moderators are gonna crash your place for free food in August.

[Gibby]

Cool, I'll have my patio done and my Keggerator installed by then.

[Riverbrian]

You were able to bargain them down from the usual 25 cent increments?

 

I threw pennies in the basket.

[ashbury]

What can you do with Diamond Head?

 

Different facet of the same joke, probably.

[twinscowboysbulls]

"Swarzaks Stable"

 

Would've been a sign at the metrodome because Gardy said so!

Too bad you were ahead of your time, you could be on a chef reality show, or have your own for that matter.

[Willihammer]

Nice save.

Name a scenario where Swarzak isn't the best option.
