Better than whining about pilots who are better than you, being stuck in Wichita every week, and worrying that MNS might get a job where he controls your plane. :D

meh, next month I'm stuck in Fargo, which makes me happy. And if MNS gets a job in Fargo, just gives me another excuse to shoot him. I'm sure Dirty won't mind. :)

At least I know I'm not getting fired. :p

Morning Lodge.

Another day...still tired. After-work naps are a bad idea, since I can't get to sleep until about 2 after I take one. :(
No end in sight, since after work Friday I will probably actually have to go work for my dad, and he's already talking about going 24 hours a day over the weekend, while I'm home to work.

I couldn't resist. :D

If I am able to make it I would like to bring little g so I am interested in "accessible" seating. I am waiting a call from the ticket office to let me know our options.

Accessible is very limited in Mariucci. It is primarily where SRO is at the concourse level. Hopefully they can accommodate you and little g. Don't wait for them. Call 1-800-UGOPHER for the UMN ticket office, or call the BSU office.

Unless you fall asleep during that 36 hour duty period and overshoot the airport by 150 miles. :D

SRO?

I called the U's ticket office yesterday and the person in charge of the seats is out until tomorrow.

Maybe I can work a deal to get little g into the locker room with the intent of putting a little hex on the team. :D

I wish I hadn't repped you earlier because my response to this post would be hilarious, and not appropriate to post.

This doesn't stop many of us. Why should it stop you? Go ahead, tear DL's life to shred for all to see.

Standing Room Only

Not many (any?) other teams have to worry about that ;)

Got it. I thought maybe it was the room where the the riot gear is stored. Zing! :p :D

Glowing Mummy warning!!

HH tonight. Lil's team won again (in the higher tier). He scored a shorthanded goal after he was man in the O zone on the kill. Roofed it. Broke the tie- first ever game winning goal. My mouth hung open. This kid has never had hands. Ever. He has now scored more goals in the last few weeks than he has in his whole career (7 yrs). He has always been the grinder, never the shooter. The level of hockey is higher than what he had been playing (except for the azzhat team). I think there has been an alien abduction and they have replaced my kid.

That is awesome les! Confidence can do wonders for a kid both on and off the ice. Good stuff. :)

True. However, this team is making multiple mistakes all over the ice. The mistakes/blunders are unacceptable at this level of play. The good news is that the season is young and they have plenty of time to work out the kinks for a run to tCup. ;)

I have a work-themed story that just goes to show people think I'm saying something awful even when I'm not.

A guy that works on the evening shift is currently on vacation (will be back in a week and a half IIRC - he got married last week). So, a few days ago, everybody on the offshift got an email asking for suggestions on what to do for him when he returns. I responded and said, "we could give him our condolences".

Last night, the asian girl (who is a bit English-challenged) that works the evening shift told me she thought I had said something completely different in the email - that I had said "condoms" instead of "condolences". I responded with, "Why would we give him those after he gets married? Those would've been more useful to him a few months ago than they are now."

Being the decent human being you are, I'm confident you clarified what you meant.
If not, give her Mookies email. I'm sure he'll offer an appropriate explanation :D

Dear Ann Landers, I'm a lifelong fan of every sports team based in the state of Minnesota. Lately, it's getting exponentially more difficult to find even one for which I can cheer with some prospect that the team will win a game. Ann, just have a look at some recent results of my favorite teams. The Minnesota Golden Golfers' feetsball team has been brutalized twice in the last two weeks and has no shot to beat Michigan State this weekend. The Minnesota Golden Oh-fers hockey team hasn't scored a goal since the Clinton Administration and couldn't win a broomball game at present. The Minnesota Mild are worse than that. The Vikings tanked against the Steelers and the Twins having been playing golf and working on arts and crafts projects for weeks and weeks at this point. What am I to do. Signed, Baffled in Bloomington

Dear BB, From the selection of teams for which you cheer it's readily apparent you have the I.Q. of stale toaster waffles. Tim Brewster's squad is well on its way to matching last season's complete second half El Foldo. Woodshed, bloodshed and, this week, hat trick. Those clowns will be lucky to cop a bid to the Miller Lite Who Gives A Rat's A/s/s Bowl.

As for the Minnesota Golden Lucias the team's impending decimation at the hands of the Alaskas this weekend should send the Oh-fers screaming into the Halloween night.

There should be an announcement within the next twenty-four hours informing you, and the other two fans of the Minnesota Mild, of that team's relegation to the ECHL.

As for the Vikings, it was only a matter of time before Brett Faruhvuh decided to chuck the whole deal and pursue a career in making Wranglers commercials. Maybe he can catch on with a Sunday morning, AARP flag football league.

On the positive side, you can look forward with absolutely no anticipation whatsoever to the eighteen game series between Bemidji State and Bobby Morris. Oughta be rilly rilly tough getting a seat to any of those contests.

As for teams for which your particular set of sensibilities would allow you to cheer, have you considered Saint Louis Rams season tickets? And Happy Halloween to you. :D

She asked one of her coworkers about it and got the proper explanation - after a great deal of laughter from the woman she asked.
