Only if, you have something about hummingbirds to share.

 

  I have a hummingbird thing. So this has happened 3 times now. Twice at the cabin and once in the back yard. While wearing my baby blue Twins hoodie, this crazy hummingbird...2 ruby throated, 1 emerald green...buzzed at the red lettering on my shirt. Freaked me out the first time, the other two, I was calmer and got to watch until they figured out it was a guy drinking beer, and not a nectar dispensing organ.

Just bought a shopping bag made of rip-stop nylon. Problem solved!

It's nice to be differentiated from a nectar dispensing organ.

What kind of songs would such an organ play?  I go with sugary sweet love songs.

Man they played the hell out of that song when I was a kid.

Dozier is due.

Not enough... Because there is still a lot of hell left in it.

Something with Jon Lord or Rick Wakeman.

With dripping sticky stuff.....along with the sweet music.

Not a pretty thought.

Thank you Bert for explaining the laws of physics to us.

[SwainZag]

Damn that was close

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

God that is the WORST luck

[DiscGolfer]

Mauer should be able to hit a HR in this park

[Jerr]

Come on Sano!!!!

I think the fence is deeper at Cretin.

[mikeee]

come on ploofsie!  #19?

[big dog]

Wow, Sano's line drive almost gave the 3rd base ump a shot at a knee replacement.

 

Let's go Trevor <clap, clap, clap clap clap>

[DiscGolfer]

For the sake of humanity I hope Sano never hits a pitcher in the head with a ball batted back at them

[mikeee]

yay!  this hits keep coming!

[Jerr]

These Twins don't quit!!!

Need to update that 0-2 count thingy

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Twins are giving the Yankees a class in lefty-righty splits

[big dog]

OK, for those of you that read the first page of this topic:  this game is EXACTLY like the North Stars-Bruins game from Feb 1981.  The Twins just keep fighting.

[JB_Iowa]

Well, this game has everything. HR ball and now small ball.

Plastic bags be the problem, matey! Rip-stop nylon shopping bags are the solution. Light, super-strong, and they'll last a few years. Much like aluminum, rip-stop nylon has a very good strength to weigh ratio, making it good for Festivus, and for shopping!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I think the fence is deeper at Cretin.

But the real challenge is to hit the school itself, 50 feet or so past the fence

So, the North Stars played at Yankee Stadium? I didn't know they played outdoor hockey back then. Interesting

And probably more monuments of Joe Mauer Alone.

Has Teixera ever been portrayed on South Park?
