away from a place we love... :( but to a place hopefully with better future opportunities ahead from Pittsburgh to Chicago. I will never** be a Bears or Blackhawks fan though, no matter what!

Chicago's a cool city. I'll have to drag stroh's ass down and we'll have a beer or eight. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving...

Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: Fuzzy on January 14, 2009, 06:35:18 PM What the hell did I miss? Clive: Excuse me, but what the hell's going on out here? Fuzzy: Well, Spanky's scared because his eyelids are jammed and his old lady's here. We need a live... is it a live rooster? [stroh nods] Fuzzy: . We need a live rooster to take the curse off stroh's pointing finger and nobody seems to know what to get Sal or Aske for their moving present. [to the rest of the 'hos] Fuzzy: Is that about right? [the 'hos nod] Fuzzy: We're dealing with a lot of *feces*. Clive: Okay, well, uh... death metal CD's always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern. Okay, let's get two! Go get 'em. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: MFAWG on January 14, 2009, 09:12:17 PM bll6_FRNIss
Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: hobbit on January 14, 2009, 11:31:03 PM Pittsburgh is a nice enough place, but I'd take Chicago everytime. I think you'll end up liking it. Congrats!
And you're right - fcuk the Bears and Hawks [sm_devil] ;) So...... do tell........ details :D Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: MFAWG on January 14, 2009, 11:33:29 PM I take it your going White Sox to avoid any potential conflict with your home team?

Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: stroh on January 15, 2009, 05:19:49 AM Mrs. O'Leary's cow surrenders. [sm_laughatyou] +1 Since you been all goed away for a while. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: Blader on January 15, 2009, 06:47:40 AM I concur with colleague hobbit. You're going to a far, far better place.
You should keep an open mind about your affiliations. It took me a couple of years, but I became an Atlanta sports homey, swearing that I never would. But 14 strait division titles can speed things along vis a vis sentiments and nostalgia etc and so forth. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: Walfredo on January 15, 2009, 11:22:22 AM Congrats! Chicago is a great city.
Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: Clive on January 15, 2009, 11:59:00 AM Chicago sounds about right. If there's anyone who DOES want to see how sausage is made, it's probably Aske.

I have some questions for you. How long did you live in Pittsburgh? How long have you pulled for Pittsburgh teams? Where did you live before? Did you support other teams before you moved to Pittsburgh? fire lovie smith! 8) Awesome!Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: Aske on January 15, 2009, 04:15:40 PM Good luck on the move.

I've seen a few games there but the best was the first year of interleague play I was in Chicago visiting friends and we went to the Twins-Cubs game. Awesome. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving...

Who says you have to be a Cub fan just to go to Wrigley Field. I want to see a game, just because of the history of the field. I am not a Yankee fan, but it was nice going to see a Yankee game in Yankee stadium. Title: Re: Aske + Sal moving... Post by: lennyquai on January 20, 2009, 11:05:22 PM Belated Congrats!!
FWIW, I've always enjoyed travels to Pitt, though would trade them in for a trip to Chicago any day of the week. I hate the Bears, Cubs, Bulls, and Blackhawks, but man I love that city!!! |
