  1. I was just up there camping last weekend - I need to get back up there more often.
  2. I have been since graduating from college, but I grew up in the Ely area about 90 miles north of Duluth.
  3. Understandable https://youtu.be/i4FuPdMskeI http://s3.amazonaws.com/ftk-s3/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/22020648/Dancing-old-man.jpg
  4. We had a lot of mash-ups. In honor of our neighbors to the north we had a mash-up of Anne Murray-Bryan Adams that was really popular. People used to come down from Thunder Bay to dance to it.
  5. Damn - it is now going to be hard to get through the week with the anticipation waiting for the weekend, although I am surprised they did not schedule for the holiday weekend and close out summer with a bang.
  6. Add I've been working for the Weekend, one of Rick Springfield's songs, Let's Go Crazy and Footloose. In retrospect, I am not sure the school I went to was very cutting edge. I think my worst dance experience is once the school had a bus to a dance in another town where they were having a live band. They were so bad it was painful to listen to them, but if we left the dance area we were not allowed back into the building and would have to wait outside in the cold until the bus took us back home. There had to be some child cruelty violations in there somewhere.
  7. In some ways the film reels and film strips were better, because the teacher often would have trouble getting things lined up or they would have to fix something midway through, so it extended the movie time. Plus you got the added bonus of the sound not always matching the picture. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Gg1YGlIIdGE/TrC4mykIhrI/AAAAAAAAAag/FH6yA_3Jbuc/s400/Picture%2B24.png
  8. or banishment to the volley ball thread.
  9. This line of posts might actually send me to check out the volley ball thread for awhile...
  10. That might be an ish. A Mauer - Ty Cobb conversation might have been interesting to listen to -- I think their personality types were slightly different (besides one being alive and one not)..
  11. Weren't they were known as Persia and Mesopotamia when you were there?
  12. I just noticed Dinger has a rap name. I am guessing his style is a cross between Falco and MC Hammer.
  13. This might be the ultimate quintessential game thread response.
  14. It involves TC Bear, Tim Laudner, and something that happened outside First Avenue. I believe there is a gag order as part of the settlement agreement, so we might never know what really happened.
  15. Is this your closest companion? http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/02/05/2561442500000578-2941985-image-m-15_1423180203481.jpg
  16. If we do trade Dozier - he might be an option. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T6wk71Q8R6k/UDrvzUL3API/AAAAAAAAKuU/CiYycdlLAgU/s1600/1982FleerTonyMicelli.jpg
  17. I thought I clicked on another non-game thread and while reading the new posts was thinking - wow - this thread really went off the tracks - what are these people on etc. Once I realized it was a game thread, I thought this is actually pretty linear and coherent by game thread standards.
  18. This has been discussed in another thread, but his chances are going to improve when he makes a big game/series winning play in the 2017 (or possibly 2018) World Series. I think he has an outside chance. I think part of it will be how much weight the voters give the concussion in messing up his career path when doing their evaluation and decide to focus more pre-concussion. I think having a few solid seasons that better than the ones immediately after the concussion would help with that (and a game winning play in game 7 of the W.S.).
  19. Dark clouds? More like (and now I will step away from inappropriate election talk).
  20. I would think you would have more than enough compensation from your salary as a TD moderator that you would not need outside employment, getting a healthy salary and a share of the profits.
  21. This is as close as I could get - but I bet this would have been a better episode with Bugs, Daffy, or Sylvester. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Rfz58Z1mw0Q/TJxIsrJa4nI/AAAAAAAAABg/tws9qC1d7Rk/s1600/animaniacs6.jpg
  22. I thought every night here was Loony Tunes night - this night just happens to have pictures from the cartoon.
  23. It is loony tunes nights. http://www.pc-computer-coach.com/graphics/porkypig.gif
