We got those now too!

I guess all Vegas has on Des Moines is better nightlife and prettier prostitutes!

The state legislature is currently working on legislation to remove the video poker machines less than a year after they drafted legislation to allow them. Seems the Casinos are losing money and cutting back their lobbying dollars. The other major problem is recovering gambling addicts. The addicts claim they can stay out of casinos to avoid the one-armed bandit temptations but it's hard to avoid gas stations and grocery stores!

For fins:

Senator Hillary Clinton was attending a party, when she noticed Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. She walked over to him, and in a quiet voice said, "If you were my husband I would poison your drink."

Schwarzenegger smiled, leaned forward, and whispered in her ear, "And if you were my wife I would drink it."

That is a good one. I agree with Arnold on that one.

(Being the well known liberal that I am that should be worth some karma)

My random post of the week b/c I am bored at work...

Is anyone else sick of the sally state law makers coming up with new U stadium funding proposals or does the entire concept of Division I football go without acknowledgement on this board?

A most troubling thing happened to me while at the state basketball tournament last week. I, reading the Press, struck up a conversation with a gentleman near me reading the West Side Fish Wrap and he seemed friendly and fairly intelligent until the stadium topic came up. He didn't understand how the new stadium bill does nothing more that shift money around and includes a parcel of land to throw public perception off. He must have been a Moorhead State grad.

Also - why/how do people read a book while they drive? You can't cure stupid & I almost got side-swiped yesterday on the crosstown...friggin idiots.

Whoa Nelly's wife was almost clipped on her bike by a Tommy car on Snelling this Monday...she was complaining as the Tommy student obviously didn't see her in the bike path lane...I told her their football team sucked though.

Go Cobbers

Iowa tourist Kilted rat, known on D3football.com to be full of $hi+, admits, "I only drank a 12 pack." referring to the locally known laxitive "Primo" beer. Sewer lines where backed up all the way to the Alamoana shopping center and it was also announced that Diamond Heads elevation had raised another 3 feet.

Fellow posters, have no fear, I have returned alive and well from beautiful Cozumel. The trip was wonderful. What a great place.

In continuation of my shotgunning dominance, I won a contest at Senior Frogs by pounding a yard of Dos Equis. Man, that is one terrible beer. All I got was a freakin' frisbee, though. Then, I had to turn down three hookers after I left he bar that night. I'm sure they were very nice ladies, but I don't think the lady would have like it. That, and the STDs were enough to scare me a bit.

Glad to hear you had a nice visit to SJU, Tmerton!

KR and Admit. I'm up for Melvin's plenty this summer. We spend most weekends at Games Lake and generally go to Melvin's when we need some extra excitement (or when we run out of beer on a Sunday).

Whoa Nelly, let's hope the legislature gets it done for the University of Minnesota stadium. I would be happy to pay some more taxes to help fund this, since it is a state institution. And this is coming from a Republican.

Given my experience at Camp Randall in Badgerland the past two seasons courtesy of my son, I tell people here in our beloved state that there is no comparison between watching a game in Madison versus the Metrodome. It would be like comparing a game at Clemens Stadium in Collegeville to Auggie Tech.
