Got to meet one of my heros this morning.

Me too.

In handball, do guys get hit in the nards a lot?

BTW, GM that e-mail you sent a couple of weeks ago? :hardoff:

Seriously GM. The guy getting punched in boys? What is wrong with you?

404 error

 

[charvik]

ouch, that's too bad...

Sportsbook.com also not interested in offering handball.

oh well... no reason for me to post thoughts around the medal games in that case. Worth a shot though.

GM's thread about team handball

This thread transcends oceans and cultural differences!

I don't think anyone was linking to pr0n stars, just dropping the names of the girls who were with him that night.

there was at least one link that was nsfw. I clicked it--you know, to make sure it was safe for everyone else.

Krista> package received. I'll enjoy one with a glass of bourbon or two tomorrow night. Thanks again!

Hold on, guy just asked where I get lines for this, so that means he's considering it. If I can show him a decent site for this, he's gonna take 'em I think. Help me out here.

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

Great, thanks TU. Can't find their limits though, and he wants to know. I'm sure mine will be the same. This is awesome, btw, feel like I've reached a new *high*.

Charv, FEED ME brother, I'm ready!

Handball is an awesome sport BTWAs Charv said today, it's actually very AmericanHigh scoring, fast paced, physicalLike a crazy hybrid of soccer, basketball and hockey

now I feel bad that I didn't post about the WC earlier... the tournament is over on Sunday...

 

[krista4]

I'm glad everyone received the cigars today. 'ninja, I held off on sending yours as I didn't want them in transit over a weekend. I'll send on Monday.

 

[charvik]

BABY = OLDER. No way is Clijsters at her peak. I think Li is.

Clijsters @ 90% >>> Li at 100% IMOChampionship pedigree baby!

Just wish I could stay up until 5 Am to watch the match

both on the play and staying up to 5am :gambler:I like Kim too, but unplayable at those odds.

ETA: I am all over Djoka at -140 though (Pinny and Expekt)

 

[General Malaise]

In handball, do guys get hit in the nards a lot?

BTW, GM that e-mail you sent a couple of weeks ago? :hardoff:

Seriously GM. The guy getting punched in boys? What is wrong with you?

Dude, it's not like I filmed the freaking thing. I just forwarded it. Man, were you not around in the hey day of forrestmail? I sent around some pretty awful stuff that would make what you're describing look like a french kiss.

 

[General Malaise]

I played Na Li...I thought you guys liked Na? Oh well.

I'll play the other guy too....the guy that beat Federer and paid me +190

 

[Incogneto]

Olivia Munn is my new #1, I think.

Way hotter than Emma Stone.Speaking of Olivia's, Olivia Wilde ain't too bad, either...

 

[Incogneto]

This is 9 minutes of awesome. Just when you think it can't get more over the top, it manages to.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

I played Na Li...I thought you guys liked Na? Oh well.I'll play the other guy too....the guy that beat Federer and paid me +190

I DO like Na; writeup in the gambling thread, very nice dog at +240ish. I think Charv had to edit that part out (too many quotes). He and TU liked Clijsters.And Djokovic is the guy we played against Federer. He'll win it.

Could someone remind me what the rule is for how much booze you buy per person for a party? We'll have hard stuff available if anyone wants to mix something, but mostly beer, wine, sangria and margaritas. How much per person do I plan on?

You know your guests better than any of us would. Just figure out what you think you'd need and double it.

Thanks for the help. I thought there was some general rule of thumb for this?

That was pretty awesome, but kind of got cartoonish in the middle.

Depends on how heavy you'll think they'll drink, but I usually figure 12 beers per suds drinker and a 1/5 of wine for those with a taste for the grape.ETA: if you're not sure who drinks what, assume 6 beers per person (all of your responders) & a fifth of wine per every two (again, all of them). You'll have stuff left over most likely, but I've found this covers most situations.

Thank you GBUH. Very helpful! Living in TN is making this more difficult than usual as there's no option to run out and get more on a Sunday.

Ugh....you should still be covered, though. Maybe bump it up to 8 beers per person and 2/3 of a fifth per attendee just to be sure? You said you had liquor covered so that ought to see you safely home. If you're worried about any leftovers going bad, I have a Fedex # happily ready to be PMed

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I really want to go to Krista's house now.

Me too....krista, bump the ratio up to 89 beers per attendee.Oh, and account for SLB too

If anyone's near as old as me (or likes older music) and has Sirius/XM, the 70s channel is playing Casey Kasem's AT40 from this date in 1971 right now.

We're not that far from you. We bought a new 58" TV yesterday so that we would have four TVs. Thinking of getting another one today. We are going to have a separate bar set up on each of the three floors with beer, wine, and freshly made sangria and margaritas. Barbacoa, carnitas, chicken, and vegetables for tacos or fajitas, ceviche, guacamole, rice & beans, and about 8 million toppings, all of this homemade by Mr. krista4. Dessert TBD. Live entertainment pre-game and of course the marching band at halftime. Squares game and prop bets for prizes. Everyone must declare their allegiance when they arrive by choosing a Terrible Towel or a cheese bracelet. I might not make it out of this alive.

that sounds like a fun party

Sounds awesome! Are the bartenders recruited or are they volunteers?

I need help writing something for my mom. She's retiring today from the post office after 35 years...basically all of my life. My dad has always worked at something and made great money but my mom was the one with the steady reliable job, benefits, etc. She was so stressed out about it that she postponed her original Dec 28th retirement for a month. And she keeps all the cards I write anything on so I feel it has to be good.

Mom, you helped deliver a lot of packages in your lifetime and I'm so blessed that I was one of them. I'm the luckiest daughter in the world and I love you.EarlyPSThanks for not shooting up the office and embarassing the family.

Early, have a mimosa or two to relax and it will come to you. I'm sure whatever comes out of your heart is going to be much better and more meaningful than suggestions from strangers on a message board.

Should I google mimosa or assume consider the source and assume it's wine based? I don't really drink but I just had so much to include and was feeling all over the place with my thoughts on it. I didn't give it to her at dinner, its' not finished.
