ROR,
Props for the extraordinary photography

Thank you, thank you very much.

I had a great subject to photograph.

so... will the long awaited Johnnie/Engineer rematch occur in the semis or the stagg this year?

I hope the semis, Gro. We'd rather play you here in a Minnesota snowstorm than in a Salem, VA snowstorm. Get the Stagg moved and I'll change my vote.

THis one sounds better. Yeah, let's go with this one.

I'll keep looking for a better one.

sumander · August 30, 2006, 12:09:18 PM

I think I'll bring rain gear anyway.

You keep looking though Fins!

Last year the game at EC was delayed for an hour by lightening. I think we can handle this.

And we also had a pavilion to cover us for the Stiftungsfestivities last year when we were in Eau Claire. Any of you Stearns County boys have one of those portable awnings that you could bring to help keep the food and coals dry in the event we do get some showers? Just a thought.

Ordered the burger this morning. Pork patties from Ruck's in Belle Plaine were delivered this morning. Got the two Weber grills cleaned last night. Now I have to do is get a new boombox and the new Paris Hilton CD. We are going to be rocking Saturday morning!

Lightening? Does that mean it was getting too bright out to play?

We could always use the PA microwave.

I've got a somewhat flimsy 8 x 8 tent deal. How's that grill holding up? Does it need another trip to the Finsleft Gee-rodge for its annual tuneup?
Remember that, Veek?

Hey Wooderson, what will you be holding on Saturday, a mike, a Hamm's, or...?

DuffMan · August 30, 2006, 12:33:56 PM

Word from Wooderson is that Wooderson Jr. and Sr. will be holding the mic on Saturday. No word on if they'll be holding a Hamm's before that.

Buckman · August 30, 2006, 12:35:24 PM

Johnnie Red or Fins, what is most needed for food on Saturday. It sounds as though the carnivore side of things is well covered. Let me know. Thanks guys!

Touchdown Tommy · August 30, 2006, 12:36:01 PM

Godfather: I can probably bring a nice "portable" tent just in case the weather gets dicey. Some members of the Official Touchdown Tommy Fan Club will appreciate it. Anything else that we can bring to assist you? Just speak the good word and it will be done.

ROR: Will you be picking up my old buddy OAS on your way thru St. Paul?

I spoke with Dusty SJU the other night, he assured me he will be in Cville with the brood of 5. Also spoke with Red Hot Bennie, she said she'll most likely not be able to make the game this weekend but "for sure" be there for the 9-9 game vs River Falls. She is working hard to win the "New Mother of the Year" award in Hennepin County.
