    State Fair 2022

    The park and rides in Roseville are pretty slick. Yes, you're getting on a bus but most of these are traveling coaches with plenty of room. It's a 10 or 15 minute ride from there - provided they're not full of course. We have a bit of a built in advantage: We live pretty close. My mother lives...

    State Fair 2022

    Hmmm. The only real new things we did were the cotton candy float and the Hmong Kitchen. Both were great. My only disappointment was if you're into Chan's Chicken, which I think is fabulous, both my son and I independently thought they changed up the recipe a bit. Still great, but a bit...

    State Fair 2022

    Have you been to The Fair? Are you planning on going to The Fair? We went opening day and then again Saturday with the kids and grandkids. All is well. The crowds are back.

    Son moving to Minnesota in August

    Oh, we just got together with a relative who was up from Jacksonville a few weeks ago. She moved down there about 15 years ago I suppose. Loves it.

    Son moving to Minnesota in August

    I just read this thread. Where is he moving from out of curiosity?

    Kenobi Final Fight Scene

    I look at this a little differently I suppose. I know there are movies or series that really are poorly done. At least for me anyway this is one of those types of series, and especially for me as a kid as I sat in the theater watching this, that it was your imagination that carried you to a...

    Kenobi Final Fight Scene

    As one of those people who saw Star Wars when it came out in 1977, I've been waiting for this for a long time. Fun stuff right here:

    OLD MUSIC

    One of my recent favorites. Even the dog.

    Pitino thus far 6-4 at New Mexico

    Pitino was a good ambassador of this program. Let's wish him well.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PITTSBURGH BIG TEN/ACC CHALLENGE IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I would think somewhere in that range also. I'm going to temper my expectations with this team. If we can steal an upset here or there in B1G play it would be great.

    Have We Got Ourselves a Real Coaching Staff?

    I think we're going to get destroyed in the B1G this year, which is not the end of the world. I would be encouraged if Johnson's teams would be get better as the season went along rather than worse though. Maybe we pull off an upset here and there, we'll see.

    Do you think you'll visit space in your lifetime?

    This isn't a political slam but I still wonder what in the world Obama was thinking when he axed the Space Shuttle.

    Who was with me in the Dome 34 years ago tonight?

    I was not there but we did go to game two of that series and game six of the World Series. Hrbeks grand slam landed near our section. I work at the airport and the only understandable description of when that happened is being out near the runway when a fighter takes off. Painfully loud. Great...

    Exercise Thread!

    I've typically divided my exercise between spring/summer/fall and then winter. This was my winter workout for about 15 years, believe it or not. I guarantee that doing this full speed is brutal. If you can keep up with this move by move at their pace, my hats off. The old Tae Bo. I still...

    2021 Minnesota State Fair

    Awesome lineup. I'd have killed to have seen Freddie King. Generally speaking I remember the big 'teen' hangout being the KQRS area by the Grandstand. We went yesterday. We left before the rain hit. Great weather, limited crowd, no lines, great food. Ahhhh.

    2021 Minnesota State Fair

    It's what I grew up with. It'll always be Heritage Square.

    2021 Minnesota State Fair

    Mexican village changed over to the Bazaar some years ago. It's in the south east corner of the Fairgrounds. I'm fairly certain the only way out or in is on the side facing the street. If you're in the back or moving within all of the small shops you'd be in trouble if anything were to happen...

    2021 Minnesota State Fair

    Yes, but I was thinking Heritage square has always been a fairly open area whereas Mexican village is pretty closed in and thus a bit of a fire hazard with few exits.
