Ah, Wisconsin girls. Good times.

 

Good times wouldn't be my first thought.

Ah, Wisconsin girls. Good times.

 

Apparently, Kenosha, WI was an exception to that rule.

[snepp]

So, umm, yeah.

 

 

 

Is Housewives of Grand Forks on yet?

Minnesota Hates Me

Lord I Can't Go Back There

[Guest USAFChief]

Man, when I think of late 60s - early 70s - that is NOT a song that came to mind. Kudos to you Sir.

Well, he has an advantage on us. He works for a bunch of NoDak radio stations. That's probably a controversial new hit song on half of em.

Time for me to drive home, pick up the dog then go to a dog birthday party. Have fun my friends.

 

Fixed it.

[LaBombo]

Ah, Wisconsin girls. Good times.

Yeah. Had better luck there than in Texas, anyway.

[ashbury]

I'm in the Indianapolis area these days.

 

Which part of town? I grew up in the Arlington High School area.

Who hasn't. That's why I'm married.

[ashbury]

Finally I understand why I'm always confusing Chicago with Tombstone...

 

And, The Matrix.

[LaBombo]

Wow. Spent a few minutes cleaning up the Leinie's that exploded in the freezer and it's 11-1? Holy crap.

[ashbury]

Agreed.

 

Wait, what did I agree with?

 

I disagree.

Your Twins 2013 season in a one-inning microcosm.

 

Oh, and a wasted Leinie? Commiserates:

Zionsville.

[stringer bell]

Didn't we have the tying run in scoring position a couple of minutes ago? Ouch, 10 runs in one inning. I guess Martis will get some work.

[Winston Smith]

Is there a game tonight?

[LaBombo]

And, The Matrix.

Right about now it's looking like time to reinsert Gardy and 'Mr. Anderson' back into the matrix and find some replacements...

[Guest USAFChief]

I had to go help Mrs Chief for a minute...who got the block on the extra point?

[Guest USAFChief]

I disagree.

concur.

The name alone means its to intelligent for a game thread, let's just go with a good story.

 

It was 1985... I had a case of wanderlust so I threw a dart on the map and decided to spend a month where it landed. At first I was disappointed when the dart hit Terre Haute because I wasn't sure how to pronounce it. So I tried again... On my second dart toss... I hit Lake Superior pretty much dead center.

 

I debated... Terre Haute or Lake Superior Dead Center for a month... As you can imagine... I obviously opted for Lake Superior.

 

About 20 days into my adventure in a small boat in the middle of Lake Superior... This Girl came by in a cabin cruiser and invited me on board. She said she wanted me! And I wanted her... She wasn't that great looking... But it had been 20 days in a small boat. So OK... Bring it on...

 

Her name was Indiana...

 

Well... I'm married Now... And I can't go back there.

[ashbury]

Zionsville.

 

Never got to that neck of the woods too often, back in the day.

 

Might have to touch bases next time I'm "home", although I spend most of my time shuttling between Southport and Franklin.

 

My brother is in Ft Wayne, BTW. So you hit that checkbox too.

He feels my pain. And yes, the Leinie's, not the game.

[ashbury]

concur.

 

Could go either way on that'un.

[ashbury]

Pelfrey is digging a hole so deep that even Olivia might not be able to win this game for us.

 

Putting up the only avatar that remotely makes sense now.

[Bark's Lounge]

I grew up in the Arlington High School area.

 

In St. Paul?

[ashbury]

Is there a game tonight?

 

Cancelled.

[ashbury]

In St. Paul?

 

No, I was responding to a post about Indy.

 

I was unaware of such a high school in the Twin Cities. Had to look it up. It opened right after I left town in '96. Apparently it just closed. Not a very long shelf life.

[Riverbrian]

Cole DeVries has enterered the fray!!!

[Winston Smith]

I think Bert should throw a ball at someone. There must be an unwritten rule being broken somewhere in this game.
