Mommy...Why does Crush talk like you? Final thoughts and summary 10/15

[disneyhockeymad]

My father, when I was growing up was a huge Arsenal fan. I, being a troublemaker, decided to root for Liverpool, since, in the mid-eighties, it was always Liverpool and Arsenal fighting it out for the cup. this is Pre-Beckham! (I knew who he was before he married Posh Spice, too). My mom is a Man-U Fan....for Rinaldo.

That's how I became a Red Wings fan, too. my brother, for some reason, was a huge Blackhawks fan (I grew up on Long Island, and my father is an Islanders fan). Since the Red Wings were the blackhawks biggest rivals, I became a red Wings fan.

The guy with my FAVORITE NAME growing up was Burrachaga from Argentina's world cup team. (I probably spelled his name completely wrong). We used to watch world cup soccer on the spanish channel here, Univision...it was the only channel that got it. lol.

Funny story!

I blogged about soccer through the whole world cup. I used to play, ref, and coach soccer. I played soccer in college. I watch TAPE for soccer, lol. I know soccer.

ANYWAY, some British guy took offense that some ignorant GIRL from the US would have the nerve to say anything about Football (soccer), as sport she obviously knew nothing about, and started flaming my blog....he was also a huge Arsenal fan..... I schooled him badly. Nothing like a chick spewing technical soccer jargon at you, and proving she knows what she's talking about...

I never had as many hits to my blog as I did for the two weeks following that blog.....I ended up taking it down, it caused such a stir. I felt bad, because he had posted using his real name and email, and apparently he was really being ragged in the UK by his mates.

Arsenal fan....

BIL is a Chelsea fan. He lives near their stadium. He wo't talk to me right now.

Good thing the game is now....otherwise work would have shut down for the day there.....can't wait to see what happens forthe final...too bad it's in Moscow.

I used to be very much like that... my family are firm Newcastle fans and just to spite them when I was younger I supported Arsenal because they were always winning! I've grown out of that now (thank goodness) and don't really follow football as religiously as my brother and dad does, I think my brothers rooting for Chelsea tonight, dunno why but hey!
I see it's gone into extra time... tense stuff! What channel you watching it through, you got all the typical english commentators?

 

[scottny]

Just for Scott! because I care,,,

People smile and tell me I'm the lucky one
And we've just begun, I think I'm gonna have a son
He will be like you and me, as free as a dove
Conceived in love, the sun is gonna shine above

CHORUS
And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with ya honey
Everything bring a chain of lo-o-o-o-ve
And in the mornin' when I rise
Bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything's gonna be all right

Love a guy who holds the world in a paper cup
Drink it up, love him and he'll bring you luck
And if ya find he helps your mind, better take him ho-ome
Yeah 'n' dontcha live alone, try to earn what lovers own

CHORUS

evil person posting on this site.

no more Anne Murray

 

[scottny]

Yep, I believe the typical commentators....I haven't watched a lot recently, I hate to admit.

Uh, I do't know where we are eating...

I had to look up who Anne Murray was.

 

[camelotcats]

Poop. Liverpool lost.

Very one-sided reffing, if I do say so myself.

What happened to Torres??

Bleh.

Dinner. we're having cold cereal....I forgot to thaw the fish because of the game.

awww. That sucks... be a good final though!! You can watch and hope chelsea loose! Cold cereal.. hmm. Nice dinner choice!!

 

[KatGarcia]

I thought we would let Nicole decide or at least try to find a place thats very NY, or only NY, something like that...since she's leaving... good idea ??? We are very easy going and can find something where ever we go.

 

[KatGarcia]

Ok I just looked up Brother Jimmy's and man o man it looks good!!!!!!!!

 

[HeatherSue]

I had to look up who Anne Murray was.

WHAT!?! We had the Anne Murray's greatest hits 8 track when I was a kid!

I can't believe I took so long to get over here to read your TR!! I love it!! You are too funny! I love that you include the "not so fun" moments!

Teresa and I have decided our TR will be all sweetness and light because we're not brave enough for that! Okay, not really. If we just included all the moments when everyone behaved and got along wonderfully, it may be a pretty short TR!

Uh...HHBG fed them while I watched to the bitter end. Bleh.

Sounds fine to me...as long as it's not Indian food.

Me lovee BBQ...

Yeah...I almost called this TR "The Tantrum of Terror" It'll just have to be one of the chapter titles.

Glad you're here! Brianna (and spencer) got very little attention for the outfits I made her, other than having about 15 people ask me where I bought the Tinkerbelle dress on Thursday....I'm sure your kiddos will be raved over though, you guys' stuff is great!

 

[brookelizabeth]

I am spoiled. HHBG lets me get BBQ whenever we go down south....and there's a pretty good place at 42nd and 7th. Virgil's

down south...nice.

Virgil's is good, but my favorite is Brother Jimmy's. I will def be eating there on my trip in a couple weeks!

 

[brookelizabeth]

I love Virgil's Have you ever been to Brother Jimmy's?

Just read a little further, yea for Brother Jimmy's!!!!!!! YUM. Give me some Frickles NOW please!

 

[brookelizabeth]

Now caught up and JEALOUS of those of you possibly going to Brother Jimmy's! But, I'll be there soon...drool.

[Native NYer]

Nope, do you?

 

[jordanyosh]

Oops, but it made me laugh...... Maybe everyone in your family wasn't laughing though.....

Awww, it happens to all of us . This is why I always keep Ramen Noodles in. Grilled Cheese and Soup is always quick

 

[irene_dsc]

Coming in late again, but gosh, sounds like WCC is not a place I'm ever going to try... that's not the first bad service story I've heard about it, either. Glad to hear it got better from there!

 

[camelotcats]

down south...nice.

Virgil's is good, but my favorite is Brother Jimmy's. I will def be eating there on my trip in a couple weeks!

By down south, I meant when we visit family or vacation in Virginia and the Carolinas. Sorry for the confusion.

Just read a little further, yea for Brother Jimmy's!!!!!!! YUM. Give me some Frickles NOW please!

Now caught up and JEALOUS of those of you possibly going to Brother Jimmy's! But, I'll be there soon...drool.

....we are actually thinking of planning a trip to Memphis just for the BBQ....well and music.

Nope, do you?

Hee hee you guys. Actually, for the kids cold cereal for dinner is a "treat" lol. HHBG likes it too. I had cup-o-noodles myself (though we do have ramen too, I am lazy for lunch)

My kids do not eat grilled cheese....I have little werdos. they love sushi and brie, and other odd things for little kids...hate grilled cheese and hamburgers and tomato soup.

Coming in late again, but gosh, sounds like WCC is not a place I'm ever going to try... that's not the first bad service story I've heard about it, either. Glad to hear it got better from there!

Thanks!

 

[camelotcats]

I got hit by a massive sudden-onset headache last night....worse than a migraine....and only got up about an hour and a half ago. I don't have the next chapter written yet. I'll try before the kids get home, but I have some house stuff to do before the meet tonight.

Completely understand. Jimmy's favorite food in the world is eggplant
