Nice showing by Bailey. Loved his quote when he was being asked about the walk and if batting the inning before had an impact: "nah, man. I just ####### walked the guy"

Tom. Tom Pickles

Yadi's hitting in the 2 hole? WTF? Was Yertle the Turtle unavailable?

Hey Bentley - I'm addressing the Alamo (San Antonio) Kiwanis club on 7/11. Top that!

That's pretty bigtime. I'd be interested in exactly what in the hell the Kiwanas do.

I've got a gig in two weeks MCing our trade association conference for 400 or so. After that its back to the Round Rock Chamber power networking lunch, Austin Hispanic Chamber TriCounty Summit and the Delmar College Truck Driving Institute.

Taking advantage of food suggestions that were provided by GMTAN tomorrow. Tonight we hit The Butcher and The Boar

If it was suggested, and I missed it, I apologize.

But this place.....Oh my! Just a fantastic meal.

Tuesdays are not traditionally heavy Meat Raffle days.

My parents are at Nye's Tuesday nights. Stop on by.

How does this work?? Walk in and ask "Does anyone here have a kid from the Internet?"

Yes.

Is there a Mr Mr Pickles here?

"Please, call me Tom. Mister Pickles is my son."

 

[shuke]

Congrats Shuke!

WE DID IT!

Hey guys. Who is the CFO of this thread?

 

[krista4]

Different topic, short of flaming #### in brown paper bag, how does one deal with a neighbor whose house alarm has been going off intermittently--anywhere from once an hour to once every 20 minutes--since 4 a.m.? The person doesn't even live in the area. We've called the HOA several times and were assured that their cleaning lady would be coming by by 3 p.m. (damn it, only two "by" in a row) to fix it, which didn't happen. This is infuriating and exhausting.

There was this couple that live about 3 condos down from us who owned a pretty nifty, classic Corvette (probably a '73). Their condo didn't have a garage so they parked it in the carport. The alarm on that thing would go off at least once a day. If another car drove down the alley too fast or had a loud muffler, the Vette's alarm would start blaring.

WONK! WONK! WONK! WEEEE-OOO WEEE-OOOO

After a month of this I emailed the HOA but nothing changed. Then I wrote a very civil and "neighborly" note for them and left it on the windshield. That didn't work either.

Just when I figured it was time to talk to the face to face they moved out. Turns out they were foreclosed. One of my sons overheard them yelling at each other about whose fault it was. Karma and all that.

I love this.

Probably extra-annoying to have to listen to that and deal with the onset of malaria, yellow fever, and African Sleeping Sickness at the same time.

In Rutland now but headed up to Burlington tomorrow. Been 17 years since I graduated from there and my first time going back to visit.

Every good CFO I've ever known has been a drunk. So we're all pretty well qualified.

 

[Limp Ditka]

At some bar at 214 s 5th st. In Minny (the hotel Minneapolis. If you walk in before 11:15 and ask for Limp, beers on on me

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Only 2 ons? What a gyp.

If you find an Evo in some river, it's my brothers.

I don't know what inside home means, but my jerkass brother is a Vikings fan(not Wrigley) and him and my brother went to Minnesota for the bears game this year and my youngest brother got drunk and threw his phone (Evo) off a bridge into a river because the battery died.

Possibly, but the Evo was a POS so I don't blame him. He ended up banging some chick he went to college (Iowa) with that was dropped off at tailgating by her boyfriend.

This weekend I was playing in a softball tournament in the town where I grew up and went to high school and we had a three hour break between games so we went to a bar. Half the team was inside and half outside and I was hanging outside and I noticed a guy there by himself who I went to high school with an was actually really good friends with from 4th-12th grade. We played sports together all through elementary and high school and had sleepovers and played Nintendo when we were kids and were always hanging out in the same group in high school. When I realized it was him I went back inside and hid out there until he left because I didn't want to have to talk to him since I haven't seen him in probably 11 years. Is that weird?

Yes, but I think I remember you drinkenly telling us you were socially awkward one night. I'm kinda like that some times.

I have my issues, as I think TRE could tell you.

I knew that was weird. I should have talked to him but I just don't wanna be like "so what do you do" and "how's the family" and stuff. And then have to answer that too. Ugh. I bet Tanner backs me up here.

I was really hoping it was a Mitsubishi.

I did this the other day. Guy I haven't talked to since HS, but we're friends on facebook. To be fair, he's a 9/11 wingnut.

The guy I'm talking about had his dad flip out right after high school because his whole life was wrapped up in his son's (this guy) sport career and he left his family to move back in with his parents in Morehead never came back and they were all ####ed up about it and now I had heard my old friend was a weird biker guy and he was wearing a biker shirt and his wallet had a chain on it.

That didn't help.
