My 'pour me a cold one' is likely going to be a milkshake instead of a beer.

I thought maybe the tumble he took caught up with him.

4. Think about more numbers. The A's magic number is 4. I really don't want to be the team standing out on the field watching the A's celebrate winning their division. We have to win the next 3 and we will have achieved 3 and 4.

3. Think about numbers (and the two posters above forgot theirs!). 3 is Gardy's magic number. The half full side of me is all 'Yay for Gardy! What a milestone!' The half empty side of me is all 'At this rate he's not gonna make. Not with this team.' The 'it's a half a glass of water' side of me is ... it's a number. And today it's 3.

Start with 1. and fill in your thoughts ... then 2. and so on. Please keep the first 5 things A's/Twins related but after that, random thoughts are welcome! Thanks and enjoy the game! (Well, as best as we can!)

It is apt. Along with poop on pumpernickel.

rah

okay ... that did it ... I'm going to bed ... my appt. with my personal trainer won't be nearly this bad

Awww, man, crap on toast.

Ack! Um ... okay ... but I may not do so well on the things to think about ... I actually almost wanted to move that sewage story to the 'more baseball' forum but i guess it was Twins related since we are playing the A's this weekend.

Yes, well, women tend to do that to men.

heh ... love how I've turned this into a classical music thread.

Okay, this instead ...

This is what I had on the other night ... it's sooooooo beautiful .... sigh ...

Hey! That's what I was going to say!

Unless it's upside down. Then it's ... well ... means we're all doomed.

Geez ... the A's only scored 2 runs in that inning??? That's pathetic.

The concert is done, the Brahms is over, and I'm home.

heh ... I don't, really. But it's kind of fun to be listening to Brahms 2, live, with the Twins game on in the background. Gives new meaning to cross-culture.

I'm at work (concert night) ... so I don't count.

Why? You think they'll get 5 or more?

There is a floor 13 in my building. When I asked my realtor about floor 13s she said that some people actually request to be on 13. Guess there's a place for everyone!

Is it 4 or 3? I thought Gardy was at 4 prior to the game? Maybe I was counting chickens before being hatched.

And phew!! And Gardy's magic number is 3!

yes! nice strikeouts.
