Big League Chew?

 

[Frostillicus]

About an hour south of where I live is Minnesota's biggest candy store, and apparently it's like an airplane hanger and has pretty much everything from blasts from the past to stuff that's more European or whatever. My wife is taking the kids tomorrow and all I can think of for her to look at for me is Chuckles and Necco wafers, which you can still occasionally find at a gas station. Help me out here.

Marathon Bar

Wax Lips

Pop Rocks

Chocolate covered Pay Day

Noted.

Pass on wax lips.

 

[Frostillicus]

Never heard of it. Going on the list.

Snickers

Reggie bar is a great call.

Mrs. SLB just told me the 18yo daughter of a friend of hers wants to sit for us. Interesting timing with this post.

headed to the drunk thread. let me know when candychat is over.

 

[Frostillicus]

Boston Baked Beans

Love these. I've found them in a few gas stations.

 

[Frostillicus]

I wonder if the candy store will have an olive bar.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Not really a gas station shopper. Have there been any advances since the 90s?

When I was a senior in high school, we would stick Boston Baked Beans up our nose and then make the freshman football players eat them.

Can you be more specific? I usually shop the gas station once on the way up to the cabin and once on the way back to keep the kids quiet, so I can probably help, but your question is too broad.

 

[shuke]

Pass on wax lips.

What about those little wax bottles with candy juice in them?

Love me some wax.

After you suck the juice out, remember to blow the bottle up with a firecracker. Also a big fan of Boston Baked Beans.

Candy cigarettes were big when I was kid.

This reads like a list of candies we used to shoplift as a kid.

I miss Tombstone beef sticks.

Turns out I've had a lot of meat leave my life.

You know you can just hover over your user name and it will tell you your total likes.

That's cute.

Bill, How do they test for cancer? Serious question.

With lady raiders knockers they did a biopsy, how did they find yours?

I'm not sure what they do for other types of cancer or even with other lung cancers. With me, they first did an X-Ray then a CT scan. They also took about a gallon of my blood at various points, but I don't recall where (or how often) in the process this was done.

Sorry if I came off as harsh earlier with you & Bob. After I posted, I was thinking "Jesus, you meathead, they were probably kidding around".

 

[Henry Ford]

Seems like olive bars are pretty hot right now.

Big fan. Kalamata olives rule.

My box was at least 50% kalamata.

That's what the half Greek chicks say.

58 hours until my mom leaves town. NOT THAT I AM COUNTING.

Mom and stepdad are now seriously thinking about moving out this way, which I'm totally in favor of. I love seeing and spending time with them, but it would be better not so concentrated. For ####'s sake.

Must not kill anyone.

 

[krista4]

57-3/4 hours now.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

I'm gonna blow some ####### minds here, so don't click this spoiler if you're driving a car (Abe) or eating or handling a baby or something:

A candy bar bar.

Woot Sport is selling a football team-themed bag of crap right now.

Not sure why I did this but I'll have a bag of Eagles crap at my door within a week.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

As I said before UH, I'm humbled that you give a #### at all.

In my case, I am fairly certain that my incredibly stupid self drank too much and hurt myself pretty good. Nice solid 2 day hangover. It's mostly passed now and I'm pretty sure that I will feel normal tomorrow morning. If I don't, I'll get myself checked out.

Thanks for giving a #### and it's one of the things that makes this thread great!

Hit on 14 with a 5 showing and took the dealers bust card?

Not that bad. It was one of those closer calls but there was still a right and wrong move according to the book.

Somebody needs to tell these kids that the whole reason I have two of them is so they can entertain each other instead of me having to parent them the whole time.

So, sorta like dogs?

Dogs don't really get it either.

I had a dream last night in which I was going through my dad's papers and found a stack of letters and yearly Christmas cards from Bob Sacamano.

Normal "Merry Xmas" type letters/cards, or "Hey, how is my secret second family doing over there? Please stop sending so many letters. It makes it hard to keep up the charade" kind of letters/cards?

This is important.

Normal stuff, although there was a card in there that he sent when my dad was either let go or didn't get a big promotion from the George Morgan company, so it was more than just a yearly Christmas card type relationship. One of the Christmas cards was a collage of family pictures and I got to see what Bobby Sac looked like for the first time. I thought he was handsome and made a point of telling (I believe) Mrs. BSR (who in my dream was sporting a pixie cut and really didn't look anything like Mrs. BSR) that when we both dropped off our kids at daycare the next day.

I promise I'm not trying to get the conversation going again, because it will just make me sad/angry, but one of the things they tell you not to eat while pregnant is cantaloupe.

Well, because I'm basically in "any day now" mode and there's not a ton I can do to hurt this kid at this point, I treated myself to a ripe cantaloupe yesterday and OH MY GOD IT PRACTICALLY MELTED ON MY TONGUE.
