Good to know I'm not alone in the 30-sumptin crowd. No-body here actually thinks it is at Swede Hollow ("vikings depression") do they?
Vikesfan-- St. Olaf, huh? I go to St. John's.
God I hope not
But then again, if they go to Swede Hollow, at least it will give the rest of us more room in the REAL park!
Hi Everyone!
Been busy elsewhere doing stuff that needs doing. Hopefully the clue will be on time tonight.
SD...Have not heard any convincing arguments to steer me away
I am 100% stuck on Highland...and only a clue steering me away will change my mind.
What time is the paper available downtown? Is it 11:30?
SueBee...wo are you?
That makes two S-dogs at that college.

Mac - what do you mean? My "real" name is Susan. This is my third year on this cooler.
Schlett- you're a Johnny, huh? What year?
Hi Terry! Good to see a familiar name!
and now for the 4th and cedar traffic report--four cars passed by--most this week at 11:30--that's another buck for the pp!
