At least tell me you're cooking it in the oven not the microwave.

 

Yep... Ready in 30 minutes... I'll give everyone a full report. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I have to... It's been sitting in my freezer for awhile. It was starting to talk to me.

Sounds like the end to the verses of an unlisted track on a Dead Milkmen album.

 

"And it gave me a look, that chills me to this day"

[Gibby]

Esco is a valuable dude.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Escobar on second...

 

Things are heatin' up at Target field too...

[Platoon]

How come the Folks at Hungry Man make us remove the film from the Chicken... Potatoes and Dessert but leave the Film over the Vegetables which we have to cut a slit in the film. 

 

Can't they just have their factory prepare it that way for us and package and ship. It would save them some money in film.

 

When they coined the phrase, "into each life a little rain must fall" I do no think they had this in mind!

[Riverbrian]

 

Esco is a valuable dude.

 

I agree... I've read some folks complaining about him and it never made sense to me. 

 

Is it possible that opinions were formed in his early days and are just too hard to shake.

 

I think he's a solid player. 

[David HK]

OK, show of hands- Sano or Poof in this situation?  I know, I know, he tweaked his hammy.  But a fella can dream, eh?

[Riverbrian]

 

When they coined the phrase, "into each life a little rain must fall" I do no think they had this in mind!

 

I got home late from work... I just want to sit down and watch the game and not get up to stir stuff in my skillet. 

 

I bought it awhile ago... It's time to get it out of my freezer. 

[Gibby]

Loaded with no outs. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

[Danchat]

Bases loaded, no outs.

 

I'd usually expect the Twins to score 0 runs here, but I think we'll hit in a couple...

[David HK]

Oh, Eddie...

A weighty problem that we have all faced at one time or another, and another in our lives. And another. I hear rumors that some people deviate from these instructions regarding plastic film, but that's just hearsay. Personally I never deviate from instructions.

 

Another important question about Hungry Man TV dinners: We have seen the price of crude oil oscillate dramatically this year, yet the price of Hungry Man has remained essentially unchanged. Given the amount of oil left in the bottom of the tin, how is this possible?

[Riverbrian]

OK... I just thought about it and I figured it out

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Film keeps the Chicken and other stuff from falling out of the tray. 

[Riverbrian]

There's a Veteran coming through. 

[jimbo92107]

Torii Hunter rules!!

[LaBombo]

Blass-tastic inning for Kazmir...

So you are strongly suggesting that I stir the Potatoes after I take it out. 

[Platoon]

Torii with a clutch RBI!

[LaBombo]

 

Torii with a clutch RPI!

Run plunked in.

[jimbo92107]

Stir those potatoes sir, or risk the consequences of inhomogeneous distribution of heat, flavor, and texture!

[Riverbrian]

That's how you stretch one hit into a crooked number folks.

Those were potatoes?

[Riverbrian]

I like and trust you Jimbo... I will stir those potatoes... and... and... I will also follow the instructions that say "carefully remove baking sheet with tray from oven"

 

I was planning on doing it haphazardly. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Am i a crooked number folk? I could probably use some stretching...

[Riverbrian]

This Castro injury isn't good news... Conger is a pretty good hitter. 

[Squirrel]

If it's talking to you before you eat it, it will most definitely talk back to you after you eat it.

[Squirrel]

Been busy running around, catching snippets of the game out of the corner of my eye ... does GoGo look ridiculous batting to anyone else? Think maybe he's trying to prove to his new teammates he's a stud or something?

[Squirrel]

W. T. F.

[Platoon]

I get so tired of listened to Dick/Roy, that I look forward to the interviews with the people from Minot in the stands! They should give Roy the scratch offs, it would keep him busy!

[Squirrel]

If you're going to call for a bunt, make sure your players can actually bunt.
