[JMCDAD]

macraven

yeah but your team won it all last year so.....

did I also read somewhere that you never wrote a US trip report, shame on you, you better write one soon

I am surpirsed in general at the lack of US trip reports

oh snap! someone snitched on me.......
yea, i never got around to writing the trip reports ......but this year i will.think i said that last year also....

i keep a journal of my trips so i could still write them up. i might surprise everyone and do one soon. which year should i write it on? have gone yearly and some bi yearly since 1993........

you are very right.
everyone loves to read trip reports and i also beg others to write them when they come back.

some of the reports are so good. bubba's mom wrote a winner of a report on her last trip.

 

[macraven]

well, last year the mets about whopped the cardinals.......that was some games.

i was totally surprised the cards won.
as much as i love them, i doubted they were going to pull it off.

i grew up in the st louis area and moved north to chicago as an adult.
up here the cards are hated.
its a cubbie town and yuck, i'm not a fan.


yea, try wearing a card tshirt or hat to one of those games.
better yet, try wearing anything cardinal in the city of chicago anytime!

 

[damo]

yep.....i'll die before we have another championship here

I was really lucky to be able to experience it with the Blue Jays when they had their back to back World Series win. We could hear the roar all the way down Lake Ontario when they won!

Hopefully this year, we'll start getting back into it. The owners finally sunk some extra money in. We need some better pitching.

 

[keishashadow]

Another week or two and the Pirates will be out of it mathematically again (hope not).

McClatchey, open up the purse strings please. Ballfield just got voted in top 3 of country's parks (behind mac's wrigley field of course lol). It's a beautiful way to spend a summer night, overlooks the Allegheny River & Pittsburgh skyline - perfecto view (unseasoned team).

Play ball!

How about some mummy dust for the Pens tomorrow afternoon?

 

[goofie4goofy]

Boy am I lucky!!!

When I was planning this vacation in January I almost chose the departure date of April 15....we would have been completely screwed. This Sunday is bringing a wicked storm, the weatherman is saying that it is going to be the worst storm we have had in years, snow wind a real nasty one. We would have not been able to leave, espically since we are flying JetBlue....

Keeping my fingers crossed for good weather April 22, and that JetBlue has ther schedule up to date by then


Just checked weatherunderground - I needed a pick me up: Orlando 86 and clear / Captiva 94 and clear.....Ahhh I can feel that balmy gulf breeze right now!

 

[Figment22]

BASEBALL FANS, STEP RIGHT UP!
NAME YOUR TEAM! DONT BE SHY

putting on the flame suit here

yes, i have lived in New England all my life.
I am a Yankees Fan.
Why, I watched my mother cry year after year over her Sox.
I have always rooted for the Yanks.
and yes, it can be difficult wearing a team shirt in public.

Yay! I'm not alone here. How did you get to be a Yankees' fan if your mom's a Sox fan?

figment - imo only made guys count on whacks ;

I was reading some comments on a Sopranos' fan forum last night and there's actually been some discussion as to how Bobby could have been a made man as he had never whacked anyone before. Interesting.

The Philles
(good bad or ugly - which they are this year )
We have partial season tickets and will stand behind them.

I honestly think the Phillies are going to have a good season this year but the Braves may end up being the team to watch in the NL East once again.
They really are an amazing organization.

some of the reports are so good. bubba's mom wrote a winner of a report on her last trip.

It was the mother of all trip reports!

I was really lucky to be able to experience it with the Blue Jays when they had their back to back World Series win. We could hear the roar all the way down Lake Ontario when they won!

Hopefully this year, we'll start getting back into it. The owners finally sunk some extra money in. We need some better pitching.

Which team doesn't? They shouldn't have let Justin Speier walk, though. The Jays are going to be in it all season. The AL East is going to be a real horse race this year.

I'm glad to see all the baseball fans in this little club!

My adventure for the day--I think I broke my toe! The fourth toe on my right foot. Don't ask me how but I wasn't watching what I was doing and I somehow walked right into one of the cushy chairs in our living room and I heard something crack. It's not swollen or black and blue but it sure does hurt!!

 

[goofie4goofy]

Hi Figment22

Sorry about your toe. Unfortunately there is not much you can do about that. The best thing to do is to elevate it and ice it to prevent any swelling. The other thing to do is to tape it to your other toe with medical tape. Hope you feel better.

crossing the fingers, eyes and legs for you.

the most disappointing thing that can happen before the vacation begins is plane problems. when weather gets bad, it affects the airports.

i have only had rescheduling issues 2 times.
once in 1996, airline switched me from early morning flight to late afternoon.
it messed up the plans the kids and i had but no other choice available.

second issue was 9/11........was able to fly out on the next week. disney and universal allowed me to change ressies without penalities. i had that trip booked for the kids and myself in january. it wasn't the best trip.

 

[macraven]

lisa, it doesn't matter how little that toe is, it sure does hurt when it's whacked.

hey, was tony around when your toe got whacked???? soprano

 

[AlexandNessa]

Oh, yawn. Hasn't everyone learned that it's all about me, and I hate baseball? You'd think that you'd have learned that by now. Guess I'm going to have to re-edu-ma-cate y'all......

 

[macraven]

ok jodie, pick a topic anything will do.


just don't talk about the high price of gasoline

 

[macraven]

i read a poster say that blue man group will only be opened in the summer.
is that true?

it won't be a year round hard ticket event???


anyone know????

 

[yankeepenny]

pick a topic,,,,, any topic
as long as it is NOT

refillable mugs
pool hopping
bed bugs
tipping
heelies or who should rent an ecv and who should not

[yankeepenny]

[yankeepenny]
