Morning, guys. Delaware chapter checking in. All is quiet on this front.

Well, heaven forbid you send an accidental "like".

Top O the Mornin Dads! Had BIL, SIL Nephew and his family in for MIL birthday weekend - nice to see family other than just the inlaws. Today is DD 2 year wedding anniversary, really does not feel that long ago. Have a good one gents.

Good fixins there buddy. Hope you made it home OK. I’ll pick up the Biz travel baton, in the back of a car on my way to Heathrow.
Have a great day boys, enjoy your Sunday.

You can leave that travel baton for me as I head to Zurich next Monday for a couple days of meetings in Germany.

Morning Guys.

Bit cloudy here today but it is warm. Got the deck washed yesterday so I'll bring out the furniture today. Soccer game tonight and then home for game 2 of the NBA finals. Country is going crazy over this, there is even a Jurassic Park set up here tonight at a local brew pub.

Have a good one all!

Tough one last night. The last 5 minutes was some of the worst basketball from an offensive / shooting point of view.

I'm not sure what triggers that. Most times I don't have to confirm, but there have been a few where it promoted my and I was VDF.

Morning, guys. Delaware chapter checking in. All is quiet on this fron

Florida chapter standing by.
All quiet (and hot) here

Well, heaven forbid you send an accidental "like"

I know right? The horrors of a non-confirmed like.

Evening chaps from a wetter than a lobster’s bathing suit Connecticut. Building Murican Lego tomorrow.

Are Murican Lego bricks (still hard not to say legos) different from British ones?

Morning fellas! Hope you're all properly caffeinated. A bit of a gray day here in Calgary. Wildfire smoke cleared out by Saturday morning so things are looking up. It's a warm one today too.

I'll be enjoying it indoors, Lawyering away.

Missed opportunity for the Raps to take a 2-0 lead. A bad 3rd Q will do that to you against the 2-time defending champs.

Have a good one fellas, stay safe and cool.

They are the same, except you pick them up in a drive thru, and they come with a deep fried option. Well done on the grammatical reprogramming.

It was cool today, I met the guy who built the city in the final scene of the Lego Movie (the one Will Ferrell has supposedly built), and they also have a ton of SW & HP stuff. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to take any Photos.

Off to a Murican steakhouse tonight, BBQ tomorrow (with Fried Pickles, obvs), back in Boston on Weds.

Have a great day chaps.

you know Zurich is in Switzerland, right? . I will send over the virtual baton on Friday when I get back.

Yep - the part of Germany company is located is just over the Swiss / German border located most southwest part of Germany. Zurich is about an hour drive and closest major airport. Made this trips several times over the years.

I'm jus' bustin' yer chops buddy. Is it in Stuttgart?

Very cool!

Sounds like you're doing the U.S. visit right.

Good day All,

Made the trip back to Halifax today, not seeing Randall anywhere.

Staying at a new hotel this trip and I have a view of Citadel Hill and the back side of the police station. Hoping for a good show tonight.

Tough one last night. The last 5 minutes was some of the worst basketball from an offensive / shooting point of view.

Had to laugh at Currie complaining about the Box and 1 defence that shut them down in the 4th quarter. Too bad the Raptors could score during that time, it would have been fun to listen to all the "experts" talk about how great GS is.

Jealous! I haven't been to Zurich since 2010.

Daughter's going to Germany for the school year after next, so we'll probably try to go visit her, but she expects to end up in Dortmund. Zurich's a bit of a hike, unfortunately. (So we'll probably go to Paris instead. Tragic.)

Anyone want to know what the worst week ever is? Yeah, it's Vacation Bible School. I'm home now and chased a double Makers bourbon with a Corona Extra. And, I have 4 more days of this carp. Maybe I should drink during the day tomorrow. It's brutal. Teachers of young children should be paid gazillions of dollars.

I’m not sure about the Geological make up of Madrid, but some kind of sinkhole is unlikely, unfortunately

A sinkhole that opened during the middle of that game might have made it better.

Hello gents, I’m just in Montreal airport on the way home after my conference in Houston. I have nothing exciting to report from the trip. I can give you details but all I could describe is the conference room, hotel room, hotel bar and restaurant. It was work focused and no free time. I was in an industrial area which was “on the wrong side of the tracks” and not advisable to go out walking in the evening to take in the non existent sights.
I did manage to get to Gatlin’s barbecue which was on Mark’s @Captain_Oblivious recommended Texas Monthly list. It was very good and I’m really glad I made it to a bbq place since it’s not the kind of restaurant I get at home. I’m getting meat sweats just looking at the picture again. If you’re wondering that’s brisket, pulled pork, and spare ribs with baked beans and mac and cheese on the side.

You could have posted about attending a terrific party with a room full of hookers. I guess brisket ain't all that bad though.

Hate the airport in Montreal, nice looking meat you've got there.

More pubs. Back to England with you. What are pubs called in France?

Why the Frak don't they hire more help?

Easy. Profits.

Morning, guys. Delaware chapter checking in. All is quiet on this front.

We have chapters now? Diabolical.

British legos snap on the left, are more pale, and depend on the American legos for support.

My oldest said she wants to go to France. I tell her she gets a trip around the world at Epcot each trip. She wasn't happy with that response.

I knew there had to be something since he made reference to Murican ones.
He tried to play it off as something to do with deep fried sides, but your explanation makes more sense.

I suspect I could give my wife flashbacks if I mentioned VBS around her. She ended up running it for a couple years at our old church.

This is part of her college program, so I'm paying for her (almost-in-state, yay WUE) tuition anyway.

I like VBS, although I tend to like it when it's over too.
I was going to volunteer at church here, but they do it during the day.
Our church back in GA was in evenings, which made for long days, but didn't require me to take vacation (which I don't have) from work to do it.

That’s because we:
Didn’t side with Napoleon
Wear applicable clothing (not a wife beater in 110f)
Secretly resent the dependence because we used the run this shizzle

Fair dos, you don’t get much closer to the Swiss than that.
