I got a ticket, I got a ticket!!
 

My boss wants me to go to Kansas City once again and I tell him I'm wayyy to busy with the new house and going out of town on Friday, etc..

Someone else steps up and goes instead. Right after the call, my dad calls and says, "I have an extra ticket for tomorrows game vs Houston" WHOOO HOOO!!

That is all...

Have fun!

Have fun watching 'em lose ;)

SI

what sport?

whew.. for a second i thought you got a dui or something todd :)

I was thinking Powerball, since it's up to $240 million.

That was last month. :)

Anyone else suspicious about the order of these events? :D

Obviously NOT from St. Louis... :D

I went through my daughter's school work last night, and she had one of those "First, Next, Last" exercises that she worked on last week. So, this morning, I asked her to use this for practice, and she gave the following answers:

FIRST:
"my dad calls and says, "I have an extra ticket for tomorrows game vs Houston"."

NEXT:
"My boss wants me to go to Kansas City once again and I tell him I'm wayyy to busy with the new house and going out of town on Friday, etc.."

LAST:
"Someone else steps up and goes instead."

EPILOGUE:
"WHOOO HOOO!!"



I gave her a .

:)

Word. Petitte pwnz the Cards... :)

So you're going to leave Jack hanging in KC just for a silly baseball game. For shame ;)

SI

Hanging? He's at the lake drinking, I mean winterizing his boat. :)

Is that what it's called when you throw up on the side of your boat ;)

SI

Yep, that's Ozark talk.

Just for the hell of it tonight I'm going to yell, "JeeberD sucks monkey balls".

:D

I'll be keeping my ears wide open.

I'll pay you handsomely for an everlasting gobstopper.

Congrats Todd! Enjoy the game.

LOL

Houston, you have a problem. Yeah I know, been used many times.

Anyhow!! WOO HOO!!! Carp looked good tonight as did Tony's gameplan against Pettitte.

Tough one again tonight vs Oswalt.

Keener Plaza was kickin, the nachos are kickin my arse today and well, WHAT A GAME!!

The honorable way to do with this is to eat some crow and say "dang, Astros lost to the Cards- guess you were right".

I, on the other hand, would like to take the sports approach and say "yeah, well, there's still lots of games left, bucko" ;)

SI

Actually, I think Carp survived a start where he didn't have his usual pitch command. We knocked Pettite around pretty good though, and it seemed like everything went our way. It's a win.

I hear ya, and I agree. I would love to see us up 2-0 going to Houston though, bucko. :)

Umpy pinchy strikezone on Pettite, me like that.

I admit it. I just wanted to use the term "bucko"

SI

Where were you sitting? We were in right field in Sec. 220. Great game.

EVER BEEN TO CAMP BUCKO??

Section 238, shoot would have been a good night to meet up. ;)

No kidding.... I didn't even see this thread until this morning.

We weren't far from your section before the game. My buddy is a union lawyer and will not drink Bud products in the City so that he won't support Lohr during the beer drivers strike. So.... we had to walk all around that friggin' stadium looking for Schafly and missed all the pre-game stuff. Just for future reference, it's in section 244. ;)

*Thread Locked*

Hahah... fun for you.

That will be the last game I go to with my dad. He's an ass and proved it once again last night at White Castle. Long story short, he has two kids before me - two kids after me - 3rd wife. He treats the first two like shit, the last two like king and queen, and I'm a mixture of both. Fun. He has money flowing out of every orface he has, but still has me buying a round of beers (hello $25), and $80 later we're at WC and he won't buy my $5 worth of burgers and fries. He has about $500 in cash in his money clip so I call him out, he hits me right there in the line, I land a left to his jaw, a mutual friend breaks it up, and I'm outta there heading 2 miles to QT to call my wife to come and get me.

Fun night.

I had to pee real bad in the fourth inning. It took a while to find a bathroom. I had to wait in line.... Ok, so my night wasn't as bad as yours. :eek:

Seriously? I don't get along with my father either, but I have never hit him. You are probably best served by having nothing to do with him. That sucks.

Yikes, since I know both (dad and your wife) of them, I'm sure that wasn't a very fun night.

Don't you have some lawyerly things to do?

You may want to stick around the barracks, Gilligan, the sheriff may be visiting you soon.

Who me? I'm at home. :)

Oh great- now you just gave him your position.

SI

Sorry to hear that. At least your team won.

Dola -

I don't get along with my father either (as eluded to in several posts.) I have zero contact with him now.

I SAID...



*THREAD LOCKED!!!*

:mad:

That's fine. I can always amend.

Yep, my Dad isn't as horrible as some, but it really irks me the way he treats me vs the kids that live with him and my step mother.

Oh well, I don't need him or his charity, but I would like my kids to have a life with their Grandfather and Grandmother. :(
