DIS Dads DDC XIV - It's a trap!!!

[katoot]

Since I'm usually on when most are sleeping, I'm not used to this much activity. I'm starting to turn into Norm...

One of my favorite quotes from ML:

All right people, we got 10 minutes 'till game time, let's all gather 'round. I'm not much for giving inspirational addresses, but I'd just like to point out that every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think that we'd save everyone the time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves. Me, I'm for wasting sportswriters' time. So I figured we ought to hang around for a while and see if we can give 'em all a nice big peanutbutterburger to eat!

I can't even remember the last time I watched Major League...

What, like Hurley?

I'll admit I'm not familiar with Hurley.

But to give you an idea of where I grew up, it was 250 miles north of Edmonton and the town was only 33,000 population. (now its over 100,000) The only stops on the highway between McMurray and Edmonton were 2 gas stations (1 about 70 miles south of town and the other about 140 miles south)

What's the count for DISDads doing the marathon(s) this weekend?


Inquisitive OWNAGE!

Between that and the "Do you nail it or screw it?" question from yesterday, Don's on a roll.

Heck, at the rate I'm going, I should be at 1000 by Monday (my time, not your time )

Maybe I should do something to get this thread deleted...

I wish I had some carpentry skills. The last time I held a crowbar, I almost took my eye out.

I am so thankful that I've been given the handy skills that I do. I have probably saved over $40K in labor with all the projects around the house.

Those crowbars are no joke. Personally, I use a Wonder bar... every man should have one!

Hurley's way up north, just across the border from Iron River, MI. (I'm originally from NE Wisconsin)

Hey now, we don't want you to get banned. I don't think any of us know how to open an official thread...

Whew... I have a chance to keep my count above Carl's! Setting my sights on Brian now....

Up for the challenge...

But realize the more I post - the quicker YOU have to get working on the new home.

Think of Rhinelander only more remote.

You're kidding, right? Rhinelander is the hustling, bustling metropolis of Northern Wisconsin! It's got a Shopko, a Hardees, AND an Arby's!

Plus the Hodag.

You only know about that part of Wisconsin from having to go visit me at school.

Daaaaang. At least Rhinelander has the Hodag.

Couple of bars. Couple of strip clubs.
That's about it.

Why do you need so many gas stations? Doesn't everyone travel by dogsled up there?

Oh, a Wonder bAR. I thought you had the "a" and the "r" reversed there for a second.

I think they might have a Taco John's, as well. Right by the WalMart.

I may regret this, but what's a Hodag?

 

[katoot]

Wow. Two mentions of the Hodag on one page...that's unheard of!

Ask and ye shall receive.
