How often have we used it incorrectly? We aught to be able to set that record too, eh?

At least we're getting that far... Could be worse.

Is that Addams? The theme song is sufficient reason to learn to snap. And i was pleasantly surprised at the actor's role in the adventures of Brisco County Jr.

It's a tricky little fella. I was intrigued by the bit about "auto mimicry" where a pair of hind legs are extra long so as to resemble antennae so you might not know which end is the head. Is this a worthy subject for a rally avatar? (And fortunately no one has mentioned the aquatic brazilian centipede...) And oh, US scored again. 2-0 at 85 minutes. CBU Are we still delayed by rain?

Though i guess Bark, not being a centipede is technically correct, as it has fewer than 100 feet...

Game Thread: Twins @ Reds, 6/30, 6:10 PM CDT
Oh yeah, 1-0 US, 76 minutes in. Germany missed their penalty kick, and US didn't. That's the difference so far...

Sounds like a good use of a rain delay... Thanks!

To paraphrase the little statement over CRArko's avatar: "Don't need no stinkin batting practice!" Any idea/guesstimate how long? And as it hasn't found its way up here: Minnesota Twins 1. Brian Dozier {R} 2B 2. Torii Hunter {R} RF 3. Joe Mauer {L} 1B 4. Trevor Plouffe {R} 3B 5. Eddie Rosario {L} LF 6. Eduardo Nunez {R} SS 7. Kurt Suzuki {R} C 8. Danny Santana {R} CF 9. Phil Hughes {R} P Cincinnati Reds 1. Billy Hamilton {S} CF 2. Ivan De Jesus {R} 2B 3. Joey Votto {L} 1B 4. Todd Frazier {R} 3B 5. Jay Bruce {L} RF 6. Marlon Byrd {R} LF 7. Tucker Barnhart {S} C 8. Eugenio Suarez {R} SS 9. Anthony DeSclafani {R} P I'll take a pass on saying any one Riverbrian-isms is better than another. I think i vote for the short story thread intro... The pregrame science are more thought provoking, but the post game dances are um, well, something. And being a fan of Young Frankenstein, i gotta go with Boyle. What other decisions do i have to avoid?

Isn't there a song about a cockroach that ate Cincinnati? I vaguely remember it from a Dr. Demento collection, i think. That said, i highly approve of the house centipede.

CRArko, you really got a gorilla?! Cool! I guess i do have a tuba, though a closer look at the cover of the children's book shows it to be inconsistent with mine. Funny story: i did get a tuba off of craigslist which had been mounted on the wall for many years apparently, and it had a sock and a little nerf ball in it. I disposed of the sock, i think, but have gotten good use of that ball! Asteroid day sound's pretty cool. I'll start wishing other people a happy one, if that's okay... Oh, and CBU: Pre-game Science 1, CBU 0...

Concur. Feldman is the Igor. Pratchett has a good take on Igors in general.
