Sorry to all my sox friends here but

[JohnKleeb]

that ruled :).

[JI7]

1. ?

i know nothing about baseball.

but what happened ?

[JohnKleeb]

2. Ok so the sox were up 8-3 on the orioles

A pretty formable lead, the sox are great at pitching but they blew the lead, and the orioles eventurally won 11-8. They are now 3 games ahead of the Sox for first place, I havent seen this good an orioles team since I actually played and was good at baseball.

[JI7]

3. well, that is impressive

to turn around that lead. i guess those are what makes a good game though.

[JohnKleeb]

4. I wish I could have been there to see it

but ahh well, when I get home from work tommorow, I am gonna let em have it since tommorow I think they go for a sweep, a sweep would mean a lot because the sox are the defending champions and it is at Fenway, thing I like about many sox fans is they actually respect and fear us, I talked about this with the Sox Fans I met up there.

5. I don't fear the Orioles.

I mean, what kind of mascot is the Oriole?

We, on the other hand, have not one, but two totally badass wool tube socks. Deal with that, birdies.

[JohnKleeb]

6. Ha yeah like I am gonna fear a sock

We should have some good games.

[TayTay]

7. Hey, we will beat you again

ahm, as soon as we find some pitchers. (My beloved Sox are currently down two starters. Sigh!)

I like the new icon, but it is also kind of scary. Was that you after the trip to Boston, or heaven forbid, during?

[JohnKleeb]

8. Thats a really bad picture of my eyes in Boston

:)
I meant who fears socks, I fear the team itself yes but I am not gonna be afraid of socks lol.

[elshiva]

9. hahah! I do not fear no socks.

But Orioles, come on, we've all seen "The Birds." Any little birdie can frikkin peck out your eyes.

Those eyes...What do they serve in those Boston bars, nuclear waste?

[JohnKleeb]

10. HEY! I wasnt drunk when that was taken ok

I actually considered quitting drinking Saturday night then on Sunday, on the train, I laughed yeah right you silly kraut mick hunky bastid :D.

[elshiva]

11. heheheh! But Quit drinking you sexy Slovenian!

[JohnKleeb]

12. Thats asking alot

I cant quit nor do I want to.

[elshiva]

13. Just be careful, is all...

[JohnKleeb]

16. I know

I should be.

[elshiva]

17. You have lovely red eyes, though.

[TayTay]

14. Fear not Kleeb. It is normal

According to popular Rethug lore, it is what happens when otherwise normal and clean-cut people first arrive in what Richard Viguerie once called, "the land of the infidels." You cross the state line into our fair Commonwealth and the Gay Marriage vibes start to work on your brain. Some people react with tremors and headaches. Others have been know to get a sudden urge to dress better and attend a cultural event. Insidious.

The closer you get to the heart of the 'The Progressive Capital of the World' (well, that's what our Air America outlet calls Boston) the more the liberal vibes in the air start to attack your brain. You start thinking crazy thoughts, like maybe we should fully fund education and the environment is a really important cause and taxes are not always a bad thing. You were, I think, hanging out with Cantabrigians (or people from Cambridge as the rest of the world knows them) and Gawd only knows what the long-term effects of that will be. (I would suggest a study, but * refuses to send any grant money to the Liberal Oasis, so conjecture must do.)

Apparently, your photographer caught you in mid-change. One minute, a nice kid from Maryland. The next, an incipient liberal tree-hugger, caught in the strange web of, dun, dun, dun MASSACHUSETTS. (There is no cure, btw.)

So, did you tour any place besides Fenway Park. Freedom Trail? Quincy Market?

[JohnKleeb]

15. Virginia not Maryland

:) I didnt really tour but I Did pass Boston Common.

[elshiva]

18. You is a Beagle, but not a Crab...

[JohnKleeb]

21. Only by birth, I dont ID with Va at all

[elshiva]

22. What state(s) do you ID with?

For me it's MD, MA, ME.

[JohnKleeb]

23. Pennsylvania

I ID only slightly with Va because I am from here but PA has such a strong place in my family's history.

[elshiva]

24. PA is great, too!

[JohnKleeb]

25. Yes it is

I need to learn how to drive soon though so I can visit Johnstown again.

[elshiva]

26. Where's Johnstown? In PA?

[JohnKleeb]

27. Yep

Shamble of its former self really :(.

[elshiva]

28. Sorry. ;(

[JohnKleeb]

29. Ahh don't feel bad, I never lived there

I just hate to see a once very proud town die, no one in my directly family lives there anymore since my great grandparents are now long gone and my grandparents moved down here in the 50's, and their brothers and sisters have passed on or moved else where.

[elshiva]

30. How about Bawlmawr? Sad to see that city going do

the hill... :cry:

[TayTay]

19. That was ,ah, intentional

shows the native arrogance of the Massachusetts mind. All those Southern states start to blend together. (You know you're from MA when you refer to anything south of PA as 'Southern.') Actually, I apologize. I knew that. It was the Orioles talk that confused my feeble mind.

Did you like Boston?

[JohnKleeb]

20. Yeah I enjoyed Boston

I still plan to do my undergrad work here in the DC area but if I go to law school, I would like to go up there.

[rockymountaindem]

31. You should fear us. You can't kick ass without a good pair of Sox.

Doom awaits you...

[JohnKleeb]

32. but I like to walk around barefoot

:shrug:
