  1. I didn't think about Wilk taking up a spot on the 40 man. Anyway, that's why I asked a question. Thanks for the information. I admit, I was reaching to find a justification for signing Wilk.
  2. Wilk is Triple A filler so the Twins can call someone up without making corresponding moves at the lower levels in the farm system?
  3. Of course I'd complain. I'm a Twins fan....
  4. Yeah, it's as if we didn't learn the first time or something.
  5. I'm okay with driving, simply because of the flexibility. If one absolutely has to see the worlds largest collection of legumes, no problem.
  6. I was thinking retired more than having lots of money. When I checked fares, I don't recall them being steep. It's the length of the cruise that makes things interesting. See here: https://www.freightercruises.com/general_info.php
  7. Passenger Cargo ships still exist. Looks like a cool way to travel, if you have the time.
  8. Airports: San Francisco: Landing at night is interesting, as it's impossible to tell where the water ends and the landing strip starts. Reno: Nothing like taking off in a crosswind. That crosswind is more or less constant, due to the fact the runways are parallel to the Sierra's. Then there is the hard bank after take-off, which I suppose due to the mountain that sort of stick up into the flight path. Landing at Reno? Not for the weak of stomach or faint of heart. Had an interesting experience during one of my trips to Reno. One of the pilots was a guy I met when he was going to flight school. After school, he tended to have a few. You can guess where I first met him. Atlanta: Flew through there a couple of times on my way to Pensacola. Meh. Pensacola? Unremarkable airport. By the way, the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola is very cool. I hate flying with a passion these days. At 6'3" there's a better than even chance the person in front of me will slam their seat back into my knees. And I'm not wealthy enough to fly first class all the time. Speaking of which, I got bumped to First Class about 30 years ago. White linen service, it was outstanding. Last year I flew back First Class from Minneapolis. No more leather seats. Might as well have been coach from 35 years ago.
  9. Sorry, I didn't really find this comment noteworthy. Sort of disappeared in all the other comments.
  10. Riverbrian has admitted to having a broadcast career and is also a goofy moderator. Things that make you go "Hmmmm."
  11. The Twins are up by 5 runs and Duffey is warming up in the bullpen? The most reliable arm in the pen? Up by 5 runs and bring in Duffey? Really? That little confidence in the bullpen? (or am I completely misreading what's going on?)
  12. Why, are you giving someone the bird?
  13. No, no no, first, one must shove money through the usb port in order to pay for the pizza. Then you put the cd in the drive.
  14. Ah, the Pelfrey we know and love has returned.
  15. That's a generous zone by the ump. If it is the same for both pitchers, I have no problem with it.
  16. Pelfrey and Santiago locked in a pitching duel? Will the weirdness never end?
  17. The science definitely isn't settled, necessitating more research.
  18. No, we're wise enough to realize that pizza sauce stains are a good way to get on the bad side of the person who does the laundry.
  19. The arm rest questions is easily answered: Is the guy next to you bigger? His. Is the female next to you next to a boyfriend who is bigger than you are? Hers. Is the arm rest next to an obnoxious kid who's dad is bigger than you are? theirs. Is the little old lady packing? Hers. Is the wife next to you? Hers.
  20. Oh goody, Roy "I get paid by the word" Smalley is announcing.
  21. Nah, booze just helps the cholesterol slide on through the veins.
  22. As a wise.....acre once said, not to many game threads ago, "deep dish pizza is merely cake with pepperoni frosting." Said wise....acre may or may not have been taken to task for that statement.
  23. it will depend on whether the bottom of the order bats in the first or the third.
