Garnet-

I don't know what it is, but Reg doesn't like the new signature line...
Moments like that should be shared only once in a while....

When Reg sees it all the time, the thrill wears off.

What do the members of the LLPP think?

Should it stay or should it go?

If it goes, there will be trouble

If it stays, there will be double

So you gotta let G know

Should it stay or should it go?

Some of my best 'highlight reel' plays were made in recess football. LD11 used to be all world. He was the smallest on the field, but he had the heart the size of a medicine ball, and the skills to back it up.

When I was in first grade, the 4th and 5th graders used to draft me in the first round. They'd be like 'We got little kid'. They didn't even know my name. 'I was 'Little Kid'. I didn't even know about sports all that much but i'd be their qb and i'd wing it all over the school yard. Come to think of it, that first school reminded me a lot of Hartwick. Big tall fences around the field, and there may even have been a sighting of some barbed-wire.

The big grammer school sport was kickball. JT's family moved when he was in 1st grade to Dirty Jersey. Being the unknown quantity, JT was picked last. JT had never played kickball before. Turns out JT has a nack for proper foot placement, and is kicking some monster shots.

Gym teacher tells JT that he might be able to kick one onto the school roof someday. Something like only 4 other kids have done it, all 5th graders. The roof is in dead center, it looked like it was about a half a mile away. In reality it was probably 150-170 ft away. The roof was a one story addition.

The roof became JT's kickball obsession along with few other kids. Each year we'd get a little higher and a little closer. Came really close in 4th grade, hitting just above the window.

5th grade is JT's last shot... obsession has affected his technique. Dribblers and low hang time is ruining JT's game. Another dude bounces one off the facing near the roof.
Last week of the school year comes and JT gets his stroke back. He drills two on the roof, including one on his final day as 5th grader.

Wierd how JT can remember such detail about something that happened in 1978, but cannot remember if he turned on the dishwasher before he left this morning.

RE: MIAC FIELD TRIP
KR - Dawg would like hummus and tabouli for lunch tomorrow if that's not a problem.

Dawg's going to bring his Vikings "mini" football for the punt, pass, and kick competition at recess tomorrow. KR - Make sure there are plenty of Hamms on icey for the Dawg.

KR does not know what this hummus and tabouli is that you speak of. Both sound french, so KR is leary of planning them.

If Dawg can use Hummus in a sentence and make it sound manly, then KR will provide.

Finsleft has Hamm's on icey in his RV which will be present at the field trip just behind the Irish Car Bomb tent.

The most popular food to emerge from the Mediterranean and Middle East regions is Hummus - an exotic blend of pureed chickpeas, lemon, sesame tahini, oil, and spices with added flavors such as roasted garlic, roasted red peppers, scallion and dill.

Hummus (pronounced Hum-es) is traditionally used as a dip with Pita bread, crackers or fresh cut veggies. Many people use hummus as a spread on sandwiches (instead of high cholesterol mayonnaise), as a topping on broiled fish or chicken, on baked potatoes instead of sour cream, or as the main ingredient in a vegetarian sandwich.

Hummus contains no saturated fat, no cholesterol or sugars and is high in protein and fiber. Unlike many foods that are good for you, hummus also tastes great. It is a perfect food for anyone who is concerned about eating well or who is on a low cholesterol diet and doesn't want to sacrifice flavor.

Hummus loosley translates into the english phrase "stank breath"

This Just in... Gro gets face time with bosses bosses bosses direct report. [/b]

Gro's going out to dinner with current boss, future boss, and one of the big corporate dogs from HQ. Luckily I actually shaved this morning and wore the business casual outfit instead of the usual jeans and polo look.

Hopefully Gro can get some pull with HQ and set up a dummy capital investment proposal and channel those funds to LLPP, Inc. But a free dinner will suffice.

Dr. "Fastow" Gro...... hmmm

Knightstalker · January 30, 2006, 04:17:34 PM

Stalker shaves on Sunday night, Tuesday night and Thursday night, that way he has a nice scruff for Saturday night if needed. Of course KS sometimes decides to skip the thursday night session.

Jonny Utah · January 30, 2006, 04:20:47 PM

Gro, I had a few questions about the trip.....

1) Since in order to get to Minnesota from LL headquarters, doesnt the bus have to go through other conferences? (Iowa, Midwest, Wisconsin). Should each LLPPer leave a message on each board? Do we have this route mapped out?

and

2) Is there a bathroom on the bus?

JT · January 30, 2006, 04:22:53 PM

JU,

Man we are firing up the LLPP jet, the bus is for bush leaguers.

'gro · January 30, 2006, 04:25:37 PM

Gro follows the same shaving pattern as dawg. MWF in the am and possible saturday in the PM if it elevates gro's chances of touching pirates treasure. certain irregularities in gro's schedule may call for back to back shaves in the am, but those are rare (weddings, job interviews, etc.)

the dome ususally gets trimmed up on saturdays, but work has thrown that into chaos... Gro likes a haircut followed by a candel lit bubble bath in the jacuzzi tub with some nelly furtado in the background.

Knightstalker · January 30, 2006, 04:32:15 PM

I say this band should be brought on the plane for entertainment:
Lez Zeppelin

looking for pics.

'gro · January 30, 2006, 04:33:37 PM

JU,

no bathroom, our bus is the same one used by the Cleveland Indians in the movie major league... there will be plenty of 3 liter bottles of grape soda and cheetos for the trip... everyone gets to keep a 3L for bathroom breaks... we're not stopping.

Gro's working on a map.... these are the stops

Boston, Albany, NYC/Dirty Jerz, DC, Wilmington, NC, Tampa, ATL, Chattanooga... then on to Collegeville!

Are those stops do-able for LLPP, should there be additions?
