  1. I've spent all day at a convention in Dallas. My brain is like cream of mushroom soup. Open my skull and throw in some tator tots and you'll have a ready made bowl for serving at Minnesota Church Gatherings.
  2. Everything else will hurt enough that you will forget about the pain in your neck.
  3. I looked at this and then I looked at mine. I'm over 15,000 Where did my life go?
  4. I'd put Wimmers at Center and then I'd take the First two letters of their last names and Call It the WIDE AL Line.
  5. It isn’t easy to lose 7 games in a row but the Twins have managed to do just that. Tonight the Twins are in Canada to take on the Powerful Blue Jay hitters and if they try real hard they can make it 8 or 10 in a row. Unusual conditions in Toronto. The forecast is 28 and you can drive 105. Here are some things to think about: 1. Polar Bears – 50% (that might be rounded up or down because exactly 50% seems incredible) of the world’s population of Polar Bears are in Canada. The other 50% are on the constant lookout for Seal and will follow its prey around the globe. For example… The 4 winds Casino in New Buffalo, Michigan where Seal is performing tomorrow night. 2. Hockey – They take their Hockey seriously in Canada. A reporter was watching some kids play Pond hockey outdoors when a rabid Rotweiler burst onto the ice and started attacking a kid. Another kid skated up and killed the dog with his hockey stick. The reporter wrote the headline… Young Leaf Fan Heroically Saves Another Child. When talking with the kid… he revealed that he was actually a Canadien Fan. So the reporter changed the headline to… Little French Bastard Kills Beloved Family Pet. 3. Tim Hortons – Canadians are crazy for Tim Horton’s. You can get a cup of coffee… a donut and breakfast biscuit and from that simplicity… Boom… Over 4 thousand stores serving maybe (I’m guessing) 20 thousand Canadians. 4. Canadian Bacon – Americans are the ones who call it Canadian Bacon. Canadians call it Back Bacon and in the country of Back… They call it American Bacon. 5. The Tragically Hip – The Tragically Hip are Canada’s Rock Band. It used to be Anne Murray until the Hip came along. I’ve been a big fan since the 90’s and I would describe them as a cross between the Rolling Stones and R.E.M. There is really no joke to tell here… Gord Downie is the front man, incredible lyricist and a totally unique personality. He has been diagnosed with an incurable form of Brain Cancer and Gord Downie responded to the diagnosis by immediately scheduling (What could be depending on his health) a final concert tour across Canada. The final show was televised nationally. It’s thought #5 because it just might have been the most important concert tour in history in consideration of the circumstances. ____________________ Lineups: TWINS Brian Dozier® 2B Robbie Grossman(S) LF Trevor Plouffe® 1B Miguel Sano® DH Max Kepler(L) RF Jorge Polanco(S) SS Eduardo Escobar(S) 3B Kurt Suzuki® C Eddie Rosario(L) CF Pat Dean P JAYS Jose Bautista® RF Josh Donaldson® 3B Edwin Encarnacion® DH Russell Martin® C Troy Tulowitzki® SS Melvin Upton Jr.® CF Darwin Barney® 2B Justin Smoak(S) 1B Ezequiel Carrera(L) LF Francisco Liriano P Click here to view the article
