Ah, but that's north of Havana.

 

 

I'll take Geography for $400, Alex.

 

Me: And I'll take "Insipid Corporate Sayings" for a thousand, Alex.

 

Alex: Wow, Circus Boy, you're being aggressive as always. For the lead, the answer is "cremation."

 

Me: Um, what is "Thinking outside the box"?

 

Alex: You make it look so easy.

[Gibby]

People must be able to hear you coming.

 

My right one is pretty crunchy, but I've dropped 60 lbs since Christmas, so it doesn't hurt that bad.

[stringer bell]

Burton does the job!

[Circus Boy]

That's what I asked my wife today...It is Fathers Day. She said, "You aren't my Father". Ew.

 

But you are Luke Skywalker's daddy, right?

[Guest USAFChief]

Just like I said...Burton in to save the day...

[Riverbrian]

must...resist...

 

Ok... Moving on... I gotta a road trip ahead... I leave you all with a 3-3 game. I place it in your care. When I get back late tonight. I expect a "W".

 

If not... I'm blaming someone.

Congrats! That has to help all your joints.

You related to RB, by chance?

[JB_Iowa]

So Ick is what should be strived for than.

 

in my mind... I assumed the difference was "Ish" was more of a liquid and "Ick" more of a solid. I was wrong.

 

 

Well, you could be right.... I'm not the official etymologist here.

Rick Anderson is always available.

Yeah, I feel great. I played football at 240 in HS and college, so It's been a struggle. I gain a ton in winter. I'm 190 right now. Its the lightest I've been since junior high.

Watch yourself near Flagstaff.

[stringer bell]

Send Burton out for the seventh?

[Guest USAFChief]

Say hi to Snepp in SoDak!

[Twinsoholic]

Anybody know how many outs Mauer has had like that this season? It used to work, but it rarely does anymore. Too bad he is not comfortable pulling the ball.

[Gibby]

Send Burton out for the seventh?

 

That might be hard on the rubber band.

[snepp]

 

She's a beaut, RB.

[Puckett34]

Send Burton out for the seventh?

 

[Circus Boy]

You related to RB, by chance?

 

Separated at birth. Our parents took him to North Dakota and dropped me off in South Dakota.

 

Forgot the important part: He was raised by humans. I was raised by wolves. Went dancing every Friday night with Kevin Costner and that Fist girl.

[Guest USAFChief]

paying a visit to Chief in Tucson.

[JB_Iowa]

Snepp and Circus Boy are both South Dakotans???

[Guest USAFChief]

Ok... Moving on... I gotta a road trip ahead...

 

Visiting Ipanema Beach with ChiTown and JB.

[Puckett34]

There are dozens of us. DOZENS!

 

(I'm also from South Dakota)

[Gibby]

I'm actually from Illinois, but I left my heart, and career in NY.

[Twinsoholic]

Sooner or later you have to pitch to Cabrera and to Martinez rather than pitching scared. The Twins definitely need another effective, come at you reliever like Fien and Perkins. Think about the Yankee's 7th inning shut down reliever Dellen Betances. Nasty! I think that the Twins recent draft of Burdi and Cederoth were selections with this hole in the roster in mind. If the Twins stay within sniffing distance of a playoff spot and if Burdi does well in the minors, he just might get the call in late July to the 25 man roster.

[Guest USAFChief]

LOL...Dick was as surprised as the rest of us by Guerrier K'ing Jackson.

 

I'll take it!

[Circus Boy]

Well, you could be right.... I'm not the official etymologist here.

 

Was the discussion about bugs?

[Beezer07]

Gardy and Anderson pushing all the right bullpen buttons today (or practicing some crazy bullpen voodoo today)

[Twinsoholic]

Great job by Guerrier. Awesome job. I cannot believe he could do it, but a tip of the cap to him.
