Keep the ball rolling. One more big weekend and people will start to take us seriously.
Weather permiting, I will be at the field house tonight.

Re: Slu@rpi 1/27/12

Here's hoping we can put forth the effort we began to show last weekend. Come out strong and prepared early-get a lead and hold it. There are no easy games in the ECAC this year. We have 10 games left to salvage the season. Go Red!!

What's 7-11? New York State doesn't have that. aside from maybe 1 in Rochester and 2 in Buffalo

There used to be one here in Middletown, but it closed a long long time ago.
To answer your question, it is a convenience store that sells slurpies.

IIRC, my brother told me that he has seen some on Long Island. If there are none in the CD, then how can one get a Slurpee? Not that it is a big loss.

They sell frozen high-fructose-corn-syrupy beverages at some Cumberland Farms locations. I'll pick one up if I'm driving home after a game.

The nearest 7-11 to Troy appears to be in Adams, MA.

New York State is deprived of many "well-known" chains. Until I took a business trip to Virginia about a year ago, I didn't even know that "Waffle House" was a well-known chain! I thought it may have been a local breakfast diner at a specific location (can't remember where). Also, it wasn't until then that I understood my aunt's jokes about "The Flying J". Some people were appalled that I had never heard of Chick-Fil-A, yet another thing we don't have here (only one is at NYU).

And yet, somehow, I don't feel deprived.

Neither do I.

I've seen Waffle Houses and Chick-Fil-As, but the Flying J is a new one on me.

In case I make a trip to Virginia some day, what is it?

Most of "The Flying J" locations I saw were in Pennsylvania along I-81 (since I drove down there). It is a convenience store with gasoline; I would liken it to Stewart's or Sheetz (though not as nice, I've heard of Sheetz before in my travels down that way).

[Ralph Baer]

Re: Slu@rpi 1/27/12

I never heard of Flying J. I do remember Flying A gas stations.

Chik-Fil-A is quite good, but it isn't open on on Sundays for religious reasons.
