announce:

Mr. krista obsessing over hosting a "snout to tail" pig event for, among others, Drifter, 'ninja and wives. Menu developing.

ETA: I think Drifterwife isn't a meat-eater so alternate menu also being developed.

wtf

Really? Like this, for instance. I've been to several of these, where they use every part of the pig for a large multi-course meal.

I might have to fly in for that one...

Look at you going all fancy hotel on us.

It's only a couple of miles from the stadium and $167 a night. Cheap IMO.

Is it close to bars and stuff? I assume so...and that would be more important than the stadium, imo.

I think Mrs Stryker is out for the game but we'll see. She might only be able to handle one evening of cornhole.

Tickets are $33.25 each. I opted for bleacher seats to keep the price down, and because there weren't many options for 10-15 seats together. I'm not too worried about the money until we get closer in case people have to bail. If the Brewers keep playing well I should be able to unload any unused tickets. You can pay me that weekend or paypal - strykerpks at the hotmails

I was told downtown Milwaukee had bars. There better be bars. Or at least a bar.

ADA was changed in 2011. Only dogs allowable as service animals now. Unless my googling was wrong.

Well there goes my 'alligators for the blind' business idea.

 

[Drifter]

Wish I could attend beerhole. I like Milwaukee and I like the WI contingent as well as the others attending. Unfortunately, I will be at the tail end of the great Griswold West Coast Adventure. I could always abandon the family in Sacramento and let them make the rest of the way home by themselves...

you're wrong, but you aren't looking for a service animal. you're looking for an assistance animal. way different and easier to qualify. pretty much just need a letter saying that the chicken helps with anxiety.

Looks cool. Although that SD-Modesto leg is probably going to be longer than 6 hours depending on traffic etc. The stretch between between Bakersfield and Modesto can be real drag. Lots of rubes that don't know how to drive.

'Ninja asked me about the law for backyard poultry. Strangely enough, I knew the answer.

You can smother up to 18 at a time in Texas.

Yeah - the (formerly Santa Cruz, now Monterey) to Anaheim will likely take longer as well. Those are just in there for rough estimates.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Adjusted for new plans

Yeah, SD to Sacto is going to take you 7.5 hours probably. Of course you get to bypass Bakersfield that way.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Good call swapping Santa Cruz for Monterey.

And I doubt they use every part of the pig.

I had pig knuckle at Schroder's in San Francisco. It was pretty awful.

 

[Bogart]

Would love a Bogart update on the night out with the boss (if there was one). Also, did Vegas cornhole happen with Stu and Tanner?

Didn't happen. I didn't want to be the guy that just stays for more money and stays miserable.

Reading "Everything That Remains" during that time really reinforced that it's not about money but quality of life.

Anyway, I actually have to work at my new job, so 315 page update??
