  1. I had always thought you were in your 60's!
  2. My brothers neighbor lady was doing that, she was cross pollinating with a friend, until her husband came home from work early one day.
  3. Park could have a big night with this slow stuff
  4. That's a long time to carry letters!
  5. And unless there was enough land to go around, not easy to get started in. To get into farming today at a size that would allow you a chance to survive, I bet 2M easy.
  6. From what I read, and was told Germans in WW1 were often shunned and they themselves were torn between loyalties. They faced the same disdain and distrust that the Japanese did in WW2 and currently afflicts another group in this era.
  7. Well let's see: 12 x 60% = 7.2. Or does that only work for the speed limit up there?
  8. Lucky you, poor Jim is stuck in his suite, with apparently not even a chaise lounge to rest in, wondering why all, well used to be all, those people want the team to win. Carl must be rolling in his grave, JHC boys, I thought I told you never to talk to the press! Not even the little ones!
  9. #4 The Over Draft. For our first house, my dad co-signed for the downpayment at one bank, and we borrowed the money for the rest of it at another bank. The Monthly on the DP loan was due, and things weren't going well. I walked in and asked the clerk, "what's the absolute least I need to pay" she said $20.00. I reached deep and came up with the very last twenty dollars in my possession. That left me completely broke, and not just on paper. That will cause some sleepless nights.
  10. I thought it was in poor taste for Brian or mention the editor. Up until now most had considered that the rambling incoherent musings he puts forth on a several day schedule were the product of his own, obviously pharmaceutically altered brain. (I use the word brain in its clinical tense). Now we find he has an editor, a mentor. It makes one shudder to imagine what could be, without such a filter to screen us from the original "thoughts". (I use the term "thoughts" with apology to Mr. Webster and his book).
  11. And left you money so after a night out on the town, you could post bale!
  12. The Twins are in a situation where every win counts! sometimes when I watch Molitor flip pitchers I can't decide if he is trying to save his job, or develop a young baseball team?
  13. How does this sound. The FO finally trades Dozier, puts EE at SS, and Nunez at second? .
  14. I would work off the concept of whether Nunez will end up as my best utility player option. He might be. If I don't think he is, then I trade him. But I would not make the decision based on his being an IF starter. His inevitable regression will make that a poor basis for trade value. But if someone has a need, and comes calling, I would probably pull the pin.
  15. What's the old joke, we don't have to beat the bear, we have to beat Atlanta?
  16. Whoops, this is a game? I thought they were auditioning for "The Walking Dead".
  17. There's hardly no body on this GT tonight, and I know they aren't at the game. The one shot of the stadium showed lots of seats available.
  18. Catching up on TiVo. Some of Parks swings are shall we say unusual.
  19. The operational word in that post is "dread". .
  20. Robbie is Robbie! You can throw him out there two weeks from now and he will be what he always has been. An averag 4th OF, average glove, weak arm, and the luxury of a SH. Arcia on the other hand needs to be figured out, good or bad. They have 6 weeks to see what they have or don't. Chosing to play Grossman over Kepler, which is what I read into this thread would be nuts. I know Molitor is desperate for wins, he managed last night like a game 163. You do that every night, and you won't have even a poor pitching staff left in two weeks!
  21. I think one was at 90, I know one was at 74. But yes all have been cookies. Frankly I think he is a total guess hitter. That's why so many half swings, and totally awkward ones. But when he guesses right, and it's soft, he can pound it.
  22. I sometimes get the idea tha Ryan wants to be the smartest man in the room. That he is going to often go against the grain simply to show that he can make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
