Message added by Squirrel,

I'm going to put this message up every game thread until all May dates have been spoken for! :) We still have 4 dates open in May and are looking for starters ... who will the takers be? @Buffy the Twins Fan? @PDX Twin? @Vanimal46? @ashbury? Just do it! Contact stringer bell today! :) Go Twins! (If I didn't call your name today, I'll get you in tomorrow ... until all dates have been spoken for.)

None of the contestants on the long-running TV game show jeopardy— a professor, a healthcare administrator and a writer — correctly answered the clue "At about 90,000, it's the most populous U.S. city on North America's biggest lake."

I'd have guessed Duluth, but I didn't think it was that large

So there are people named Siri! I want to use that name for our next dog so that I can call her at the dog park and open everyone's Apple phones!

Maybe in olden times it was too difficult to keep track of what happened in the early innings?  No computers and the rain would wipe the ink off the scorecards?  We should ask Chief.

Too be fair I believe they might have had papyrus by then, although I think it was expensive and hard to come by,  I think you would only use it for a play-off game.

Those are usually the most common items people find around the city ... my cushions tie on

I’ve found them a couple of times either on the fence of the property (if we had ridiculous wind) or in my neighbor’s patio on the 1st floor the next morning.

I think it’s closer to 85,000, was over 100,000 in the 60’s before the steel plant shut down….oh well, go Bulldogs!

Yeah, it's about 85k now.  It's growing again now thanks to tourism.  They've invested heavily in it of late.

I love Duluth ... spent a lot of time there as a child ... being away from MN ... I don't get there anymore ... maybe once I move back to the TC

I do too, but I typically keep heading up the shore to get away from the "city".  It's gotten busier up there though.

I/we used to camp up at Jay Cooke Park very , very often; sadly, have not been in the area since the big flood some years back.

Parents stayed at a big old school hotel down town when the Seaway opened in 1959l

I've been told that they have a wonderful railroad museum. Has anyone been there?

Expand  

Many times , it is a very good Railroad Museum.

Took the tourist train that runs up to Two Harbors, good time.

There's not a lot of options right now, but I sure hope the idea for the lineup wasn't "Urquidy's reverse splits."

Reverse splits are almost always false. The few times they aren't false, they're fake.
