  1. Drive carefully! otherwise we won't get to meet you at the game on the 24th.
  2. You mean there are actually Brewer fans that dont drink much??!! There are even some who don't drink at all. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eek.gif
  3. Well, guess I'm just not that much of a geologist. Or a geographer. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif (Sorry, my S.O. is a geographer. I won't show him this.)
  4. I wouldn't object entirely if the Brewers added to the lead here. Hint.
  5. Poor mikevan. Should we start sending you reading material for when you spend the month of September in the bathroom? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  6. Oh, man. What are the odds that Spurling can get evil Gary out?
  7. - (Cue music) "Moving on up to the East Side.." Thanks, ccbrew. This has now been in my head for almost 24 hours. Though it is less bad than the dancing lego guy music.
  8. Umm, yeah - thanks, Jamie. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif I haven't used the 'ignore' feature lately (figured I'd better watch all of you nowadays), but my recollection is that while it's engaged, you don't see the ignored chatter's posts at all. There is no placeholder type entry in the chat to show when the ignored person has posted. You can tell whom you have set to 'ignore' because the screen name appears in parentheses in the list of active chatters. If there is a way to recover and later review the ignored chatter's posts, I have not found it.
  9. wasn't this series the one that Jamie was trying to get us all to go on a BF.net road trip? Yes, pitch, I was thinking about this last night. I believe it was going to be the game on the 12th. So I then wondered: did bf.net dodge a bullet by not making the road trip for what turned out to be the wrong end of a no-hitter...or did the cancellation of the road trip cause the baseball gods to frown and smite the Brewers? Like the timeless question of how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop, the world may never know. Anyway, getting back on topic - go Brewers. Give us some weekday entertainment (via Gameday at least), and make it a happy ending.
  10. I've also seen the 'About Us' page, so I know that not everybody looks like they live in a cave or something. I think several of those pictures are from the day the staff were let out of the cave.
  11. Maybe the pink is what will get Bill Hall going. Remember the bat...
  12. Wednesday night does seem like an odd time for graduation. Then again, I graduated in a town with one high school, so there was no competition for prime ceremony times.
  13. And, sadly, minus the contract. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  14. Maybe Brian WAS drunk....drunk on Brewers geek love.
  15. I think Russ' comment from the IGT bears repeating here: The Crew can have two teams tied for second, get no hit and STILL not lose ground in the standings. Team of destiny, I tell ya! Wednesday's another day.
  16. Amuse yourself by trying to count the graduation speakers' cliches. Like "This is not an ending, but really a beginning." You'll lose count, I guarantee it. Congratulations!
  17. Yeah, I kind of wish this had occurred on Thursday, when it would have received less of an audience.
  18. Well, see, 3 is cutting the LOB waaaay down from the other night.
  19. No Braun. Yeah. Good idea. Of course, this probably means the Brewers win by 15. And if they do, is Ryan sent back to Nashville? I couldn't decide whether to use blue or navy font, so I just picked black.
  20. Shouldn't it be declaw? Why not just use "neuter" while you're at it? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  21. Pitch, I think brewers19 would endorse your visiting the St. Louis Zoo, if you're going to visit a Missouri zoo. Just saying.
  22. Even I, a relative optimist, am tempted to shudder when I see those splits vs. Suppan. But the Texas pitchers didn't look tough on paper, so what do I know? C'mon, Brewers, pleasantly surprise me.
  23. Do you have any procedures/instructions in writing? I maintain a manual for my office operations for staff to refer to when I'm not around. Some of it is detail-oriented (like steps to follow certain procedures), other parts less so - like suggestions for how to react when a patron freaks out over a lost book bill (I work in a library). It takes time to put things down, and regular revisions are a good idea (I try to at least look through each section of the manual every summer), but for me it has been time well spent. I've also developed a training checklist - really out of necessity, as before that I was constantly saying to students every September, "Did I tell you this already?" Brainstorm a list of things you want your staff to know about, organize it into sections ("Customer Service", "Troubleshooting", "Equipment", etc.) and use that as your outline for what to tell new hires. Does that help? My work force is 100% part time college students, so I feel your high turnover pain; and for me, everything gets going in late August to about mid-September - so getting them up to speed quickly is key.
  24. Co-workers who forget to do part of their job, and who are absent the day I discover the resulting mess - which today took 45 minutes to clean up. It also bugs me when the subject line in a thread gets lost because people just reply with "Re:re." I don't know if that's a "people" issue or an ezboard issue.
  25. http://lennthompson.typepad.com/lenndevours/images/grilledcheese.jpg Just felt like time.
