But you are a singer, eh?

Me! In Elementary school back in Rochester they started us on cello instead of the ordinary recorder. Entering Junior High, i decided to use the unused violin at home. 2 weeks into orchestra rehearsals the conductor said we needed bass players, so stuck at the bottom of the 2nd fiddle section still work out fingerings, i joined others also learning fingers as first time bass players. Played bass through high school and college and after, albeit primarily pit orchestras after high school. I did eventually kinda learn the recorder as i got one for xmas. And a number of years ago, i heard a group sought a tuba player and responded that i didn't play, but was willing to learn. And i am passable now in some circles, and armed with a $100 craigslist sousaphone i started doing local parades with a few groups last summer. I mean to continue that. As for music... i don't recall what typical high school orchestra fare was, but typical concert band music i guess i am still sinking my chops into, as well as the odd march music. And i have past involvement with a Gilbert and Sullivan group. Which may have mildly tainted my communication skilz... Thanks for answering. Being blower of the large brass instrument, i sense a potential comment interest with the one who is called tuba. But that could be a stretch. Ya know, go ahead and start yer band! Singing will come.

Even the special features on dvd for that show were fascintaing. The last gasp of the old west studio lot. Got bunch of stunt guys out of retirement to teach Campbell to ride and twirl a gun. Last few episodes construction messed up the sound as they had started tearing down the lot. Fortunately they were building a fancy aound studio, so they could fix it. His perpetual search for "the coming thing", and the fellow who played Gomez Adams shows up. Yeah, that was a pretty good show. Mobs what showed up for X-files, some of them stuck to watch Brisco.

No Zaphod Beeblebrox of gamethreads today to match the double header? Oh right. Later in the season will mean they get a better chance market it, and may well meet with better weather. That actually makes a lot of sense.

Hey look! I got promoted!

I desire to associate myself with this sentiment. Do you play? And if so (and of course if ya don't mind sharing) whatcha play?

Gosh, that sounda fun! Except perhaps the dying part. Count me in! If i must die, i hope the bacteria is smarter than i...

Except for this comment... Obviously?

Yeah, i remember the Challenger about that time. The whole class was watching it. I haven't been on a space shuttle since. Although i would claim it is for other reasons than fear. As is my general avoidance of flying. I guess i'm not up to planning months in advance and otherwise am mildly set in my ways.

I had fun actually parking at logan for a change 6 or 7 years back, going into the terminal with the roller coaster perpetual motion style ball sculpture. It had shrunk significantly since the last time i'd seen it when i was 11 or so.

I didn't think chickens could taste...

Sorry i am late. My turing machine stopped running. Glad we won in the meantime.

So... it might still be pizza if you can eat it with chopsticks? Speaking as one who normally folds the slices to keep them from flopping, i do kinda appreciate the third dimension. So folding also helps them seem thicker. But meh. Food's food. Won't begrudge anyone their foibles.

I am not worthy! I just thought we would be there forever if it were "Chicastop"

Sorry for my general absence from this game thread... Busy weekend socializing and such. I did check the score in 8th inning and saw we were down by 1, and so naturally assumed we'd walk it off in the 9th... Apparently we found out why having a closer is good.

Someone recommended a book to me this weekend... Ballparking it i think was the name... I should read it eventually.

I guess the Red Sox don't take too kindly to being walked off?

Deep. I approve. So do the fish, i think.

Sorry i didn't pull my weight in the game thread. I'll try to do better next time. Glad Mauer made it home... Where my thoughts are waiting. Or is that where the music's playing?

Not catching up on thread yet. In well, like a social setting. Even in a restaurant with tvs and wont ask them to turn the game on...

I miss the ol' Gibby... But yeah, i am not too concerned about the Twins as a whole.

No joy in mudville...

Dozier, you've turned off your batting computer...

I've lost R2. (in honor of the day)

Hmmm... Hard question. I think i'd just be stoked i made it to the show.
