Immediately after my high school graduation. Knowing I wanted to be on my own but not having a clue what to do.

The toys r us in Charlottesville, VA sold me all of basic series 1 2 days after Christmas. I found the rest on new years day in Richmond. That was a fun time. Especially when the signature series and battle packs 2 started popping up within a couple of weeks.

I know this is an old post, but I love minor league baseball. I follow it pretty extensively, almost as much as MLB if not as much... But I have never been to a game. We have a few teams, but all are from Independent ball-- Schaumburg Boomers, Southern Illinois Miners, & the Windy City Thunderbolts are all Illinois teams affiliated with the Frontier league. For minor leagues that count, I've got the Peoria Chiefs (the St. Louis Cardinals Single A Affiliate) and Kane County Cougars (Cubs Single A Affiliate) There's some other independent league teams that are newer here, too. You sound like a minor league baseball geek like myself. My Christmas gifts this year were all Eugene Emeralds apparel. Are you familiar with them? Probably the best logo in milb!

The Nationals sucked, UVA got beat by a 16 seed in the ncaa tournament, and I had to pay $7k to replace a heat pump on my house.
BUT, my family is well, I'm alive, and the year was an Improvement on 2017 so I'm good with it.

Between this and the system show, you better slow down on using up those lives. Glad you're still kicking.

Honestly, this could be a huge blessing for his career. He comes back as a pissed off, nasty dude like he debuted in nxt. For now, just hopeful the surgery goes well.

I haven't met a ton of wrestlers, but Kenny Dykstra was one of the nicest guys I've ever met when I ran in to him at a mall here in Richmond.

We've got the Cubs Double A team here. I pretty much watched the entire Cubs World Series team in Double A. Kris Bryant was a beast down here. The team has been affiliated with other organizations so Ive gotten to see everyone from Kris Bryan, Starlin Castro to Jayson Werth & Yadier Molina to Roy Hallada & Carlos Delgado. We've also got a "minor league" hockey team here that's won 4 Presidents cups. I dont think they're affiliated with any NHL teams though. I saw this post a while back but just realized you were talking about the Smokies. I love that ballpark. So pretty. And their team store is amazing. I stopped by last year and bought a jersey and hat.

A friend of mine was the clubby in Richmond for years. Said Klesko is one of the best guys you'll ever meet. Chipper on the other hand- total jerk... I miss the Braves, but I love my Squirrels! I've never really gotten into the squirrels. I want to. But I just, the giants, I can't. I was never a Giants fan until the Squirrels came to town. I actually go to more UVA baseball games than anything, but it's still awesome seeing kids come through, move up, and hopefully see the big leagues.

went to my second Lumberjacks game last night. they got whooped but they had fireworks after. T R WAlso from the looks of all the fine women there we should have had a Booty Club reunion last night at the game.. wow Man, I wanted to go to some Valley League games this year but didnt make it. I'm in Louisa county. Been to Richmond a million times, Potomac Nationals, Danville Braves, Norfolk Tides. Hoping to make it to Pulaski and Salem soon. How's the team store in Salem? I'm a sucker for Minor league merch. Hats, jerseys, shirts, I'll probably buy it... Haha. Great thread!!

Not one song, but the Heroine album by From First to Last made 2007 for me. More recently, Brand New's Science Fiction has been at the top of my playlist since christmas.

Every morning. Prerably 15-20 minutes but I usually have to take 5 minute ones if I’m going to work. I’d feel disgusting all day if I didn’t take one in the morning. I’m that way too. If I’m off of work I can’t go out and be dressed without a shower. I just feel weird even if I showered the night before This. Now that its summer I usually end up taking 2 a day. Can't go out without a shower and I can't go to bed feeling grimy. My hair is buzzed so I can be out in about 5 minutes. However, after a long day of working outside in the summer, nothing feels better than a steaming hot shower then laying nekkid under the ceiling fan.

A 2700 sq ft,(including basement) 2 story house on 1.25 acres of land with an attached garage and a paved, circle driveway. Corner lot, with no neighbors that's surrounded by mature white oaks a few short miles from Lake Anna in Rural, Central Virginia.
That's the description I'll go with when I sell this place to build my cabin. I love the house, but the empty 2 acre lot I own is begging to have a cabin built on it with a hot tub on the back deck.

My wife and I's general rule of thumb for tipping is to double the first number of the total. We add or subtract depending on service quality. I do however hate when I pick food up at places and pay with my debit card and they hand you a receipt to fill out and sign. I always feel like a schmuck for not tipping when I had to drive there, park, get out, and get it. This gets me every time. I never tip in that situation and dont feel I should, but I still end up feeling like a prick. Same for baseball games. I only pay with cards, so when I'm at the beer stand already overpaying for a mediocre beer, I dont feel like I should tip the dude for swiping my card and grabbing a beer from the fridge behind him.
