Good Afternoon, Lodge!
Good Afternoon, Lodge!
I turned on to this blue line...
Yes, I've failed as a father. I tried to teach him to use paper maps, but I waited too long and he is convinced the only way to find something is with a smart phone.
He borrowed his mom's flip phone for today though so he has back-up should he get lost on the way here (just called me).
When I went out earlier today they were not predicting this. Heard it on the way home.We're possibly getting 1-3" of snow tomorrow morning and another 4-6" all day Monday!! OMG!!
When we were kids we would go on vacation for a couple of weeks and my parents would get a Trip tic from the RAC (Royal Auto Club). It had maps as well as text. At one point we went in 2 cars my father's secretary (now his wife) was in one car with either of my parents and the other parent had one of us kids navigating. That was usually me because my brother had a knack for vomiting his way through vacation. He was never car sick any other time. Very 'fond' memories of hearing "Hold the bag for your brother!!"My son loves maps.
When we do a family road trip we bring 2-3 atlases just so there is no fighting plus a world atlas......just in case.![]()
I just spewed coffee all over my keyboard!Very 'fond' memories of hearing "Hold the bag for your brother!!"
Is something happening in Tampa this week?So who's all going down to Tampa?
In a perfect world all the Whioux fans will be suffering!Just look for the insufferable Sioux fan.
For some reason, this sounds very appealing. I think it's because I miss being at my parents' house when it mists/drizzles. They have a few old comforters that you can drag onto the porch and cuddle in one of the chairs with while reading and looking at the lake.Just raked the rest of the front yard, in the mizzle. Nothing like getting raking and having th mist cool you down as you go. Life is good
More importantly, can he drive a stick shift? If not, I feel this is a bigger failure. Though not being able to read a map is a handicap as we learned in parts of California when we didn't have cell signal.Yes, I've failed as a father.

thecomicbookguy and I are flying down on Wednesday.So who's all going down to Tampa?
YAY! Kids!The hubster, both LGFs, my sister, and I will be there.
*drool* I love pretzels. Is it a soft one with lots of salt?Most everyone but me. I'll be at church for the first game.
Had a good night, spent the first part at church with one buddy, then joined up at another place with some other friends. Watched one fail to eat the big pretzel*, and had tons of fun breaking down the walls of good taste for humor.
*The Big Pretzel is 13" in diameter, and about 2" in girth. It's all the carbs. All of them.

Looks/sounds great. Is it a convenient stop for when we visit for the FF in a few years?Yes, a soft pretzel. Enough salt to satisfy, but not over salted. The following pic is for scale only:

Edit: and not a single macro (or even close to it) on tap. it's glorious.

I saw the episode of Bizarre Foods that featured this place -- it sounds awesome.The Uptown or Northeast location may be convenient, via bus/light rail but I am very unfamiliar (re: I don't know sh*) about that mode of transportation. And if you are not in the mood for the pretzel, they specialize in exotic sausages (yeah, I know what I typed, peanut gallery!).
