What about the lefse? The spelling might be wrong but I think it is correct.

Oh that will be there to. 

Klop, you've been over on the Iowa board today.  Can you summarize in a sentence or two, WTF they have been talking about for the last 5-6 pages?  I am way to ADD to try and read all these 20 line paragraphs.

Shoulda here is the jest.  There is talk somewhat started by me and another regarding the rosters being taken down and over recruiting.  This turned into conspiracy theory and went way to far. 
Got into a large discussion regarding the choice between choosing a top tier team vs. being a part of changing the tradition a mid tier team. 
Also a lot of talk about Dubuque rebuilding and what the chances are of that.  People are skeptical. 
Talk about Luthers new coach not being hired vs. the impact on recruiting. 
Quite a bit of other small issues.  Been an interesting day.  Also a lot of talk about the second college you would have chosen vs. good recruiting stories.  Most of it is worth reading.  Hope that helps.

OK.  Appreciate the cliffnotes, Klop.

Something handy for Christmas, or anytime really. Just read about this in Sports Illustrated and I've been browsing it for an hour now.

Four years ago the NCAA started digitizing the 20,000 hours of tapes it has, and now it's selling them on DVDs. Right now, only NCAA championship events are available (but that doesn't mean just title games, there are all kinds of tourney games in every sport). It's got ncaa hoops games going back to 1939, it's got the famous 1957 NCAA title game between wilt's kansas team and north carolina, and, of course, a certain 2003 football game involving the Johnnies and Mount Union (it also has the 2001 and 2002 semifinal losses as well for SJU). It's got a great search function too.

Nice. Now they should get a blog and a RSS feed and they could make this a real marketing machine. Or let people like Pat get a commission for selling through their site.

we are preparing the Lutafisk for the upcoming Christmas weekend. 

There is something about lye soaked fish that looks like Jello that just isn't right

Tell me about it. My maternal grandmother came over on the boat from Sweden in1896, we always had Lutefisk & Lefse for Christmas dinner as well as Swedish meatballs. I went hungry on most Christmases as a child, or would sneak a PB&J in the kitchen when nobody was looking

My grandmother was born on the boat coming to NY from Sweden.  My mother remembers Lutefisk for Christmas and ever since she and my father got married she has served Rib Roast for Christmas.

Your mother is a wise woman. No lutefisk = no need to call the haz. mat. team

My 85 yr old mother in law demanded lutefisk for last christmas family get together.  We boiled it outside on the grill and brought it in when it was done to keep the house from stinking all up.  Worked pretty good.  Some of her grandchildren tried it and they didn't know what to make of it, since they had never eaten anything they could compare it to.  Sure doesn't taste like chicken.

I feel your pain.  I was in the same boat.  Half the family rode the boat over from Norway and my mothers half rode the boat over from Ireland.  So one side of the family was lutefisk and lufse and the other half was boiled potatoes and over cooked pot roasts.  I spent my time at the relish try trying to fill the black hole which was my stomach.

No thanks.  I can do without seeing those.

ATTN: Chewey

It has been brought to the President's attention that your profile doesn't include mention of SJU.  WTF??  This is very much deserving of an explanation.  Are you afraid no Tommies will "retain" your services?  This is disturbing.

[cobbernation]

I should have known rondell white was going to be mentioned in the mitchell report.  Except all the players who were mentioned were actually good!
