  1. Marge Schott? Or baseball purgatory? Blenders can be frightening.
  2. Is Carl's Jr. related to Hardees? They both got that there star. Reminded me of the North Stars...
  3. I have seen it both on my ipad and iphone. i only check it in on a windows machine every other week, and i think it had been set up with some form of ad block anyway, so i wouldn't notice it on the desk top proper.
  4. Yeah, Wills do, though it will involve learning to screen capture. it isn't very common. And in this case it came up on the first view of the thread and is 't there now. But it was one of them cool ads that stay put as you scroll past, and there were others in the intermittent places.
  5. Anyway, without the game yet, the this thread is "lovely, dark and deep. But i have promises to keep And miles to go before i sleep."
  6. It could be. That woulda been clever or something. No. I grew up with out a tv. So i listened to the 87 world series on the radio, or watched at a neighbor's place.
  7. I haven't been paying that close attention. News to me. Just tell him not to take greens from the witch next door...
  8. I do in fact, even if i don't recall how to type small. "It's Wednesday" is what the soldiers say in The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen (at least the Gilliam version) as a reason for taking time off from guard duty to watch the game on youtube. That was the age of Reason. And Mudder's day is a riff on an old Abbott and Costello routine.
  9. Patience is a virtue... Or so i have been told. So cord cutting is a thing? I can tell people my folks were cord cutters before it was cool? (PS. I still get ads on Twins Daily despite giving up my old timey member monicker)
  10. Too lazy to check which Tur-Twin throws a mean splitter, but am tempted to dub him Master Splitter.
  11. "Monday is World Turtle Day" quoth the the voice over the radio the other night. Thought 1: Is that every Monday? Or just today? Thought 2: Is it Just for World Turtles? The only one i know of is the Great A'Tuin, and tickle me pink if i can't start a discworld flavored game thread. Thought 3: What other turtles deserve to be mentioned? The laserdisc turtle. The one at the beginning of El Mariachi. Those of the Teenage Mutant variety. Mr. T in the dialogues of GEB. Yertle the Turtle Filbert from Rocco's Modern Life (note for future potential silly game thread intros) and more... Thought 4: What ever became of Willians Astudillo? He may be gone from our line up, but his spirit of play lives on with the Twins! Thought 5: What does any of this have to do with tonight's game? Tha'ts easy! It's a game thread. Read on to find out. Turtles of Detroit: 0. Elvin Rodriguez (R) P 1. Robbie Grossman (S) RF 2. Jonathan Schoop (R) 2B 3. Miguel Cabrera (R) DH 4. Javier Baez (R) SS 5. Harold Castro (L) 3B 6. Willi Castro (S) LF 7. Spencer Torkelson (R) 1B 8. Eric Haase (R) C 9. Daz Cameron (R) CF Turtles of Minnesota: 0. Chris Archer (R) P 1. Byron Buxton (R) CF 2. Luis Arraez (L) 1B 3. Carlos Correa (R) SS 4.

  12. Sorry was concentrating on driving and didn't catch the post. I also know i am not planning to stay round long enough to give all the good eats their fair due... And thanks all for taking good care of the game thread, and by extension, the game! (And for leaving it unarchived long enough for me to get a* last word in!) *i know better than to use the direct article. Chief will reverse ninja me.
  13. Exciting, no? Listened to it until arriving down 6-2, and forgot about the game while saying hi to friends... I am back.
  14. If the signage is right, i can get it again at 11pm. Currently leaving Fredricksburg and wending my way into Austin. Got friends who are busy, and when they got time for me, i'll be there (then to Houston for the night)
  15. Ended up settling on a southern bacon double whataburger (the new untested variety... i guess i like being a guinea pig) I got one of each ketchup, so as not to miss anything. I do like shoe strings! Both fries and catches.
  16. I am in one now... Not in a Kansas City... A Whataburger. Any recommendations?
