Is that an electronic chicago-style pizza? It's about the right size and shape...

Nah, it's the pizza oven/mold Domino's uses to turn out a "deep dish" pizza in 8 minutes.

 

Otherwise known as French Bread with Ketchup.

We need Bark to put some pepperoni on it.

[Blake]

At the rate things are going, I'm going to run out of likes well before game time.

 

Excellent job, everyone!

There is a mention of the act of sweeping in the bible so I assume it has been around awhile.

 Yep, Luke 15:8. the original happy-happy sweep dance.

I would buy that as I love the elegant design.  I wish they made smaller, portable, dust-buster models, cut into squares.

btw, beer goes great with pizza.

today is national beer day.

today is also no housework day, so no sweeping please!

Silly wabbit, you know you can't sweep the first game.

[Doomtints]

Though very sunny it is indeed chilly today in Chicago.  Both baseball stadiums in town tend to get miserably cold when this time of year when it is windy and there is enough wind for that to be the case today.

 

The games over the weekend however should be perfect, 60s and 70s.

Looks like you perfectly captured the reality of deep dish pizza.

[Mike Sixel]

Currently searching for pizza places in Portland, as my wife just texted that beer and pizza seemed like good ideas. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that the most awesome person I've ever met is on this thread....

Nice when the wife and husband are on the same page. How does your wife feel about Art?

We have similar tastes, though I like modern a bit more usually. I'd probably spend more on it, which is true of most things, actually. We both really like live music, if you include that in the definition....

Favorite concerts you've attended?

I'm going with Bananarama and The Bangles.

maybe we should have a music thread.....

 

but I'm big on guitars, so Arctic Monkeys and Black Keys are up there recently.

 

We just saw Mike Doughty in Portland, stood about 10 feet away the whole show, in a tiny place, was great. one of my favorite poets as singers.

I bet you like The War on Drugs.

The Bean only weighs a hundred pounds???? Best 100 lbs. of fun I ever experienced !!!

 

Hmm. Well I dated this chick in college who was 5' 1"...

[Blake]

 

To me, deep dish is NOT a pizza!!!

"cake with pepperoni frosting" that's really good!!!!! I'm gonna use that, the next time someone wants a deep dish  

I have to admit, that was a fun riff to write.

[Darius]

Great write up on Chicago.

 

Never thought of it that way (maybe because I love a good Chicago dog). But, hot dog snobbery is absurd and hilarious.

[Darius]

Hipsters are usually on the other side of that political conversation.

 

I'll sit just sit back now and wait for a fan of the band to take that literally and lose their mind.

[MNTSchmitt]

 

With the night game, I have no idea what I suppose to spend my time doing at work today...

I know right? I've spent the last 2 days watching the games in their entirety at my desk due to it being painfully slow in the plumbing sales world.

Nicely played, but you really should have left off the second line for effect.....

[Craig Arko]

I've never even heard of any of these groups. But I still have the Doobie Brothers, at least.

[MNTSchmitt]

I just read through the thread....I'm extremely hungry now. Excited to see if we can continue the winning tonight! Is the Twins line up posted yet? Interested to see where Buxton is today.

sigh.

[Darius]

It'll be good to play someone else to get an idea of where this team actually is.

 

Not that the Sox are any good. But, I'm still skeptical that the last series wasn't more of a result of the Royals being terrible.

 

I haven't seen a lineup yet, but I'm hoping I see:

 

Dozier, 2B

Polanco, SS

Sano, 3B

Mauer, 1B

Kepler, RF

Castro, C

Rosario, LF

Buxton, CF

Grossman, DH

 

Last 3 are interchangeable. But, I'd like some some speed (Rosario/Buxton) and/or a guy who can get on base (Grossman) when the lineup turns over to the team's best hitters.

 

Not a huge fan of Buxton being a blackhole in the top third of the lineup until he figures some things out.
